Make your own custom DE-9 cable or DE-9 interface with ease, using this DE-9 Plug to Terminal Spring Block Adapter. You get a nice solid PCB with a DE-9 plug and one line of push-spring terminal blocks that you can use with stranded or solid core wire to quickly assemble your own wiring jigs.
We recommend this adapter when you need a non-standard wiring setup or interfacing to a device with a VGA interface (that's what these connectors were used for the most)
Sometimes DE-9 connectors are referred to as DB-9. Technically that's the wrong name, but it's so ingrained that most people only know the connector as DB-9.
Comes with one fully assembled breakout.
We also have a matching DB-9 Female Socket to Terminal Spring Block Adapter.
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- breakout
- A breakout board carries a small or fine-pitched component and brings its connections out to standard, breadboard- and header-friendly pins. Describing a part as a breakout means it can be wired into a project without soldering directly to the component's tiny contacts.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
- VGA
- VGA has two common meanings in electronics: as a resolution it usually refers to a 640 x 480 pixel image, which is modest detail suitable for basic display or inspection rather than high definition; as a connector it refers to the analogue 15-pin video output long used on computers and monitors. Check which sense a listing means.
