finding components

Finding components is a pain! I found 'almost' all components and I'm currently working on the PCB design:



For example, I've spend over half a day (maybe due to lack of google skills?!) trying to find the PS3 Blu-Ray type power connector. You can help me out by finding the (type) name of the connector (It looks like a floppy "berg" type connector but it isn't..).

  3. Looks like JST 04ZR-3H-P. Not sure, though.

  4. Maybe it's easier to source 150 cables @ $0.7 a piece?

    Get some quotations and let's see how much they're asking for 150 pieces:

    I wasn't able to find anything useful and they only mentioned something not that useful:

  5. That resembles one of the older "Molex" connectors. Although the socket isn't standard, the wire color code sequence appears to be the same.

  6. Thank you for the reply guys, although those cables are a good idea (maybe a bit to short, as it needs to travel in the length of the enclosure). I would still need a male connector. I'll contact those suppliers to see if they know what type it is.

  7. I have been using your sacd_extract.exe for a while now and I noticed some inconsistent behaviours re. handling of output paths. Where should I post these observations?
