I know this is not exactly on topic for this forum but I know lots of you fellows are electronics enthusiasts.

What type of connector is that? I'm looking for one that is a 10 pin if possible but 5 of these if I can just get the connectors official name.

My problem is that I need to break out this connector and it does not fit into a bread board because the 10 by 10 pins are off set:

So I need to figure out how to use it.

It's from the Sony dual shock controller. You can get a cheap replacement battery on deal extreme: http://dx.com/p/replacement-1800mah-lithium-battery-pack-for-ps3-wireless-dualshock-controllers-13314

For that price, you can just cut off the wire and use it.

Thanks for responding Ben but I don't have 5 of these batteries (I would need 20 actually) in order to harvest the connectors.

It looks like a 'JST' type connector, not sure of type or size.
Have a look at this and see if it helps, http://www.chargery.com/productImage/battery/battery-connector.jpg

You will also need to know the pitch (size between contacts)

Hope this helps a little.

Helps a lot thanks...

it's 1mm pitch btw

Yeah that's JST. (Japan solderless terminal.)


They are used on Arduino etc. as well if you find something they have for it.
