MB-6582: DIN 7 supplier

I believe the 8-pin DIN socket in that datasheet has a footprint that matches the MB-6582 base PCB, but with an extra pin (pin 8) which you could trim off.

I will have to check the dimensions more carefully. I know SmashTV was considering using 8-pin DIN sockets in the kits for various reasons, the socket itself would be compatible with the 7-pin DIN plug of a C64 PSU.

Well, that's annoying... not even the 8-pin from this manufacturer will fit.

I used the same footprint as the DIN socket in the C64, and I bought a bag of 100 at the time which had the same footprint.

I expected it to be a standard, much like 5-pin DIN sockets (aka. MIDI sockets).

One free socket to skyline7! :)

Just PM me your details.

Not even the 5-pin socket seams to have a standard footprint. I have seen at least two...
