Front Panel Header on CMB1ABA

[rchaney]

I'm using the CMB1AB.  The datasheet I have says that the front panel header is a 2x12, 1.25mm pitch connector.  

Looking at the part on the board, it's a 12 pin connector (2x6) and has a 2mm pitch.  

What part is this?  More importantly, how do I connect to it?  I intend to test it out with a 2mm pitch component.  

Is there a more recent version of the datasheet?  The one I have is Revision 1.4.  I can't seem to find a more updated one.

Hello rchaney,

We can confirm the front panel header it is a 2x6 header (12 pins) as stated in the latest document https://www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/intel-nuc/nuc-elements/CMB1AB_PROD_SPEC.pdf

Do you have something different on your board? If so, could you please provide a picture of it?

Hi, The datasheet you linked to is the one I'm looking at as well.  The datasheet describes the connector incorrectly.

Hello rchaney,

We appreciate the feedback provided. The revision 1.4 is the most updated version of the document, it has a 2x6 header with 12 pins, the document indicates what each of the 12 pins is for.

Please let me know if you have any concerns.

The 1.4 datasheet is only half correct. 

It says 1.25mm pitch, but the real connector is 2mm pitch.  

It says 2x12, but the real connector is 2x6

The mistakes are highlighted and corrected in the attached picture.
