Need to find an 8 pin IDC to usb adaptor, and/or usb-c

Hello,

I’m looking for an adaptor for an 8pin IDC cable to a standard usb. I also need an 8 pin IDC to usb-c. Are there any products that Digikey offers that match this? Here is a link to the product I’m using, https://www.amazon.com/Precision-Quality-Monitoring-Particle-Concentration/dp/B0B1J8FQ7M/ref=d_pb_allspark_dp_sims_pao_desktop_session_based_sccl_3_3/141-1756088-6931531?pd_rd_w=HPg7i&content-id=amzn1.sym.6b5008ac-c24a-4aea-a3ea-015a531184f5&pf_rd_p=6b5008ac-c24a-4aea-a3ea-015a531184f5&pf_rd_r=21E7KQ1RS3WJN15HH3H2&pd_rd_wg=87YcP&pd_rd_r=6228ae3e-d92b-4151-9b8f-17916ab79133&pd_rd_i=B0B1J8FQ7M&psc=1.

I am also curious as pins 7 and 8 are N/C if I could get away with a 6 pin adaptor?

Thanks,
Koby

Hello kgraph - welcome to the Forum community! I am sorry, I did not find that we carry either adapter cable assembly you are looking for.

Hi kgrah,

After looking at the info associated with the PMS7003 particle concentration sensor, I am lead to ask, why you need an 8-pin IDC to USB adapter cable? The communication interface for that device is a 3.3V UART rather than USB protocol.

If you are looking for a device to translate between a UART interface and USB, then perhaps you could use one of these or these to do that conversion…
