ECV3-14-2AP-IDC · 14-pin Edge-Connect to 2.54 mm (0.1″) IDC

Product information "ECV3-14-2AP-IDC · 14-pin Edge-Connect to 2.54 mm (0.1″) IDC"

Short description

14-pin Edge-Connect™ with two guide pins, terminating in a 2.54 mm (0.1″) IDC header — the classic ribbon connector on a 2.54 mm pitch.

Connections

Side Pins Connector Pitch
Board (Tag-Connect) 14 Edge contacts ECV3-14 (Edge-Connect™), two alignment pins 1.27 mm (0.05″)
Debugger 14 Socket, 2 × 7 2.54 mm (0.1″)

Pin assignment: contact n is on connector pin n, the cable is wired 1:1 — the full table is in the "Technical data" tab.

Compatible: debuggers with a 14-pin 2.54 mm pin header.

Not, or not directly, compatible

What you need it for

Edge-Connect places the contacts on the edge of the board rather than on its surface. The target board needs no mating connector at all — just the plated half-holes along the edge and the holes for the guide pins. That saves space and the cost of a component on every board you build.

What "2AP" means

Two guide pins instead of one. The connector cannot be seated askew and stays reproducible over repeated cycles. Tag-Connect recommends this version for all new designs using the 14-pin Edge-Connect.

Compatibility, important

ECV3 is the third generation and is not compatible with the earlier Edge-Connect families. If you are working with an older board, you need the older cable — both remain available.

Included

Cable with Edge-Connect™ connector and IDC header. The demo PCB shown in the manufacturer's photos is not included.

The family at a glance

All four versions share the same board side. What differs is only the header at the debugger:

Article Debugger side
ECV3-14-2AP-IDC 14-pin, 2.54 mm (0.1″)
ECV3-14-2AP-IDC-050 14-pin, 1.27 mm (0.05″)
ECV3-14-2AP-IDC-2MM 14-pin, 2 mm
ECV3-14-2AP-ETM 20-pin Cortex-20, with trace

So it is your debugger that decides, not your board. If in doubt, measure the pin spacing on your programmer.
