JST 05SR-3S and BM05B-SRSS-TB

Published on April 4, 2008 in EeePC. 0 Comments Tags: , .

So with some research (and help from some guys @ #eeepc) I found digi-key selling those things for germany.

I will have to pay:

  • 8€ for Processing my order
  • 18€ for delivery
  • 6€ for the rcpt thing (10x)
  • 2€ for the header thing (10x)

Thats a total of 34€ for just 20 tiny little pieces of plastic. Great. I will think about that.

EeePC Camera Jack (Update)

Published on April 3, 2008 in EeePC. 0 Comments Tags: , , .

I plan to do some modifications to my EeePC, including internal flash stick, bluetooth and (maybe) a touchpanel. Since i dont like soldering on the mainboard i looked for other ways to integrate those usb gadgets.

The solution:

The webcam uses USB and I (and some others) think, that the feature of disabling it (echo 0 > /proc/acpi/asus/camera) disables the whole usb port, so this is the perfect way to disable your gadgets when you want to save some energy.

I already bought a small usb hub and the Hama Nano Bluetooth Stick, so I’m quite ready to go.

But theres one thing left, maybe someone can help me. I would like not to cut the cable to the camera, so I am looking for the same jack the camera chip has so i can solder it on the usb hub instead of that MiniUSB Port. Addiitonal i would need the same connector which is on the cable to the camera for connecting the camera back to the usb hub.

Today i opened the display chassis and made some photos of this jack (which, whats confusing me, has a 5wire jack, but just 4 (the usual usb’s) cables connected). Camera model is eMPIA 2760. There’s no datasheet for this on eMPIA’s official website.

Update: parag0n from #eeepc (freenode) says its a JST SR Jack. Even he says its a 04 i believe its a 05 since those for the camera are definitely 5wires. So the next thing is to find a reseller selling those.

Anyway, thank you for your help, maybe this informations can help others modding their EeePC ;)
