Cytron Gear Motor pin header

[richardf-5]

The Cytron gear motors with encoders, such as RB-Cyt-93, have all the wires (4 encoder plus 2 motor connections) attached to a 6-way connector, which looks, from the illustration, as if it should be attached to a pin header. I know the connections from the encoder data-sheet, but what is the spacing of the pins? (0.1 inch or what?).

And, does anybody have the part number or type of a suitable pin header?

thanks

Surely that’s a typo: a pitch of 0.8" over the 6 pins would mean a connector 4.8" long!

Is it 2 mm = 0.0787" so almost 0.08" ?

I have one of these motors on back order, but was hoping to do some advance preparations.

thanks,
Richard

The motors include the male connector that you can use to solder to your PCB or connect to wires. The pitch is 0.8", but we do not have of the connector part number at this time. We will update the product description as soon as we get the information from the manufacturer.

That is a typo indeed! We meant 0.08". From our measurements it was closer to 0.08" than to 2mm (our initial guess). But that is not a big difference.
