Do you know this connector? I tried in vain for hours using a variety of search terms.

Pitch is 2.54 mm and width of arc-bent contact is 1.4 mm. I just wish to find a part number, manufacturer and/or a different connector that is very similar to this.

2.54mm pitch connector

  • SMD of the same connector above would suffice, too. The arc-bent part on top is what I need. – mlomailom Nov 06 '18 at 14:04
  • Oh! I didn't understand, I thought the bent part was the leads you'd solder.to a board; my suggestion wouldn't work. – Hearth Nov 06 '18 at 14:05
  • It would be helpful if you would state how it is used. What connects to the bent parts? To their lower or upper surface? Are you trying to repair something such that alternatives might work, or are you trying to source this for new production? – Chris Stratton Nov 06 '18 at 14:26
  • @ChrisStratton Added. Dimensions aren't that important as I'm looking for something similar. It's for a prototype initially. Mass production is too far off to prepare for it right now. – mlomailom Nov 07 '18 at 08:57
  • When you say "card", is that a PCB with a hole on its side or like stacked PCBs? – gustavovelascoh Nov 07 '18 at 12:00
  • What's wrong with a right angle card edge connector? – Chris Stratton Nov 07 '18 at 17:32
  • @gustavovelascoh Yes, that correct. – mlomailom Nov 07 '18 at 18:15
  • @ChrisStratton RA is fine, too. I just need a mating connector that is able to fit snug inside the card shown in my illustration. – mlomailom Nov 07 '18 at 18:17

That looks to me like one of these oldschool LCD panel connectors. One would use two and slot the LCD glass inbetween:

The connectors:

Type of LCDs used with those:

I haven't looked anywhere as to where can one source them for any serious production runs; but I hope this might point you in the right direction.

I am in no way affiliated with said shop; I just once found those on there.

Similar, but different. Surface mount compression contacts. https://www.digikey.com/short/j02v3j enter image description here

  • Thanks. It helps, but it isn't a solution for me right now. I'll keep looking for the origin of the original part I'm looking for, though. – mlomailom Nov 07 '18 at 08:59
