Female Connectors Pin #1 is the first pin, top row, RIGHT side when looking at the connector. DIN/MINI-DIN CONNECTORS DIN and Mini-Din connectors have an alternating pin numbering scheme. See diagrams in this document for correct pin orientation. ****************************************************************************** STANDARD PC MOTHERBOARD CONNECTORS Main Board (System PCB) Standard DC Power Connector(s) O Y r e B B B B W a l B l l l l h n R l l a a a a i R R R g e o u c c c c t e e e e d w e k k k k e d d d ___________ ____________ | | | | | P8 | | P9 | | | | | ----------- ----------- Wire Color Assignment Black ------------------------------- Ground Orange -------------------------- Power Good (+5V DC) Red ---------------------------------- +5 VDC White --------------------------------- -5 VDC Yellow ------------------------------- +12 VDC Blue -------------------------------- -12 VDC Note!!

If CTS and RI are detected the RTS driver and CTS/RI receivers are considered operational. When DTR is asserted (output) the diagnostic tests for the presence of CD and DSR (input). If CD/DSR are detected the DTR driver and CD/DSR receivers are considered operational. Data is Xmitted and received on the data lines and the data is compared in the diagnostic buffer. If any status's are not detected an error message is displayed.

This pin out depicts the newer bi-directional parallel port with input and output capabilities often used with external tape drives and accessory devices. If pins 31 or 32 are grounded on a cable the printer will fail to come ready when attached to the PC. This is common on low cost parallel printer cables.

This pinout is from a ECS P5VX-B MB with PS2 mouse option. Not the same as the one on file. Best way to find out is Power OFF PC Meter resistance between +5V power lead and pins on connector (find +5V pin) Meter resistance between GND power lead and pins on connector (find GND pin) Wire up pins 3 and 4 of Mini-Din connector to known +5V and GND Try pins 1 and 5 of Mini-Din using remaining pins and swap them round if it does not work, until you get a working combination. Reset processor (or power cycle) between tries. Once +5V and more importantly GND are wired correctly trying other combinations will not damage working mouse port and mouse. ================================= From: "Iain Fielden" To: stas@stason.org Date: Sun, 21 Dec 2003 04:18:54 -0000 The one piece of PC cabling info I couldn't find on http://stason.org/TULARC/pc/pc_pinout.html was the connections/pinouts for a laptop external Mouse/Keyboard Y splitter cable. I've since found it/worked it out, and if you would like to add it to your page (where far more people will be able to find it than on mine) the info is as follows:- LAPTOP PS/2 COMBINED KEYBOARD/MOUSE 6 PIN MINI-DIN CONNECTOR AND Y-SPLITTER CABLE (Verified for Compaq Armada M700) PIN PIN SIGNAL 5 H 6 1 Data 1 ----------------------- 1 Data 1 6 H 5 3 4 2 Data 2 ----- - - - - - - - - - 2 Not Used 4 3 1 2 3 GND -------------------------- 3 GND 2 1 Male 4 VCC (+5v) -------------------- 4 VCC (+5v) Female End 5 Clock 1 ---------------------- 5 Clock 1 End (1) 6 Clock 2 ----- - - - - - - - - 6 Not Used |||||| | ||| PIN SIGNAL |||||---------------- 1 Data 2 6 H 5 | || - - - - - - - - 2 Not Used 4 3 ||||----------------- 3 GND 2 1 | |------------------ 4 VCC (+5v) Female |-------------------- 5 Clock 2 End (2) - - - - - - - - - - 6 Not Used Compaq Armada M700 accepts Mouse and Keyboard as either (1) or (2). Other makes/models may care which is which. Still others may use some other cable arrangement, some (older?) models may not be able to use Y-Splitters at all. This should work for most, but ideally check documentation for your particular make & model.

Share and Enjoy:)
