Thanks for your reply. I am having trouble finding out which one of those is the right one. I looked at all of them I believe. I need help finding out which one I need

Hello mandragor84,

Sorry for the long delay.

I do understand your frustration. There are so many unique parts. It’s often difficult to locate the specific one that you need.

For you situation, I recommend you filter based on number of positions / contacts. I can’t say for certain, but it looks like your device has six or maybe even seven surface-mount contacts.

Once you have down-selected the parts, you will need to compare the physical device to the datasheet information. If you don’t already have one, you may want to invest in a vernier or dial caliper. It’s an essential tools for this kind of work. Here are a few examples from DigiKey:
