I have been rewiring, 'molexing' and documenting stuff on my website. I have been wiring control panels with 12 pin molex to be able to swap boards and controls with ease.
Now, I have thought about adding a molex connector off the power supply as well. Bob roberts has it like this:
Molex 9 position .093 Molex connector.
Pin 1, 2 & 3 are used for +5 VDC
Pin 4, 5 & 6 are used for ground
Pin 7 is used for - 5 VDC
Pin 8 is used for +12 VDC
Is this any sort of standard? I think it would make more sense to set the pins like this:
Pin 1, 2 & 3 are used for ground
Pin 4, 5 & 6 are used for +5 VDC
Pin 7 is used for - 5 VDC
Pin 8 is used for +12 VDC
thoughts?
