some pictures of the R/A 30 pin Connectors in use.
Dual Row 30 Pin Simm Socket (Memory module type) (Original use was for adding memory to PC systems.) These should be of a good quality type with metal clips as shown above. Some plastic clip types are so poor that when a motherboard is dropped a short distance to a table top, the module pops out of its socket. A paint stripper heat gun can be used to remove these sockets from old PC motherboards. If you have a close look at a SimmStick board, you will find a row of holes just behind the edge connector. These can be used for the installation of male and female standard .1" pins. Pair of Right Angle male/female
connectors.
This allows two boards to sit flat on a table top. Pair of Straight male/female
connectors.
Pins can be mixed and
matched to suit, however Dontronics sell them as a pair of R/A or Straight.

(dual). Get the singles even though they are more expensive. The
duals are only .19 but are a straight vertical insertion. The singles
at .75 (quantity 10) are vertical, but use the slide it in and snap in
place zif style insertion.

Subject: RE: simm sockets Resent-Date: Tue, 27 Apr 1999 22:38:27 -0400 Resent-From: sisuser@ From: Ben Wirz <ben at wirz.com> Hi Guys, I agree with Bob that the Dual SimmSockets from Jameco are poor qualtity.
DigiKey, Mouser, and all the surplus houses seem to have a good selection
of the sockets. You want to get the ones with metal latches and make sure
they are straight and not angled ones. One problem is that the qualtity
seems to vary widely so its best to order a few to start with and more
if they look good.

Note: The female connector always installs on the main board. This is a DT003 and DT104 connected together using a female 30 pin connector, and male 30 pin connector with a single slot Simm Socket soldered directly to it.
A DT004 and a DT202 showing how a custom programmer could be made using an Aries ZIF socket.
Soldering the female connector to the main board allows you to use the cheaper and more redily available male pins on your SimmStick or Prototype board. You can now use any cheap Vero board for your project or application.
Hard to get Dual Row 64 pin straight and right angle, male and female connectors. 32 pins by 2 rows. Use for connecting printed circuit boards together, and many other projects. Female connectors can be easily cut to length, and the male connectors are simply snapped to length.
