Connector for X2 & X3

MarkDeSouza

Im trying to tidy up my BS2 project and opt out of jumper cables crisscrossing the breadboard.

Does anyone know of a type of connector that I could plug in into the X2 (1x16) and X3 (1x13) bank?

Have a look at the following link: http://ryanaircraft.net/Crimp_Conn.html

It describes making servo cables using 3 pins, however you can get these crimp-on pin connectors and make as many conductors as you need. The black plastic housings come in all different sizes if you look around and these pin connectors lock into them making a fairly solid cable connector.

Here's a link I found in the search results that shows a wider housing in both single row and double row configurations. http://www.ecvv.com/product/3875173.html

Pololu has both the socket and pin crimp connectors as well as many housing configurations: http://www.pololu.com/product/1900

Thanks a lot Chris. I ordered the connectors from Pololu and this should make my project look awesome!
