Title: How to solder the EDAC connector to PCB?
Post by: apok on April 24, 2021, 12:55:43 AM

Hi,

I’m Sérgio and I’m currently building some equipment from soundskulptor which I think it’s an awesome way to build gear and also learn a thing or two on how they work.

Well I’m a complete new to electronics so, for me this extender is the one thing that I don’t understand how to solder the EDAC to the PCB. The EDAC has 2 x 15 pins and they don’t fill in the gaps of the PCB which are 3 x 15. How should I solder them?

Best regards,
Sérgio

Insert the connector pins in the 2 side rows of holes.
The center row of holes is unused.
Beware, the EDAC connector is mounted at the back of the PCB (opposite 2x13 header).
