General Description

Make connections quickly and reliably with this breakout board, which brings every pin of its 96-pin DIN 41612 connector out to screw terminals. Available connectors include Male Right Angle Style C and Female Right Angle Style R.

This breakout board is perfect for production applications as well as experimentation and prototype work. It is helpful for working with I/O cards, Data Aquisition (DAQ) devices, control systems, and other devices that use a 96-pin 3x32 DIN 41612 connector.

A breakout board is sometimes referred to as a "transition module", "terminal board", "terminal block", "breakout box", "breakout adapter", "terminator", or "interface module".

Connector Details

Overall connector length is approximately 3.7", and pins are on 0.1" centers. The DIN41612 series of connectors contains several variants. The options we currently offer are detailed below. The data listed applies to the connector installed on the breakout board.

Model# Description Style Connector Part#
BRKN4296F-R 96-pin Female Right Angle DIN 41612 Female Style R Amphenol / FCI 86093968813H55V1LF or equivalent
BRKN4296M-R 96-pin Male Right Angle DIN 41612 Male Style C Amphenol / FCI 86093967113H55ELF or equivalent

The connector used on this product goes by several different names, including DIN 41612, DIN41612, 3-Row DIN 41612, Backplane Connectors, IEC 60603.2, IEC 60603-2, and EN60603-2. Some common applications for these connectors are listed below. Note that the standards listed may employ more than one type of connector. Carefully verify the connector type used in your application.
  • Various systems using the Eurocard standard
  • VMEbus (VME / Versa Module Europa bus / IEEE 1014)
  • NuBus (IEEE 1196)
  • STEbus
  • Multibus II
  • Europe Card Bus
  • VXI Bus
  • FutureBus
  • N8VEM computer bus

Warning: The pin numbering of DIN41612 connectors can be confusing, particularly because Style R uses inverse (mirrored) numbering as compared to Style C. For reference, the standard meaning of the Styles is as follows:

  • Style C: Expansion card with Male Right Angle mates with Female Vertical on the backplane. Pin mapping is 1:1.
  • Style R: Expansion card with Female Right Angle mates with Male Vertical on the backplane. Pin mapping is 1:1.

So as long as you stay within the same style, the pin mapping is 1:1. However, mechanically, a Style C Male (Right Angle) can mate with a Style R Female (also Right Angle), for example, but the pin numbering will be mirrored: A1 will connect to A32, A2 to A31, ... B1 to B32, ... C1 to C32 and so on. Even though this is the standard for the DIN41612 connector, systems that use these connectors might not implement their signals that way. For example, VME backplanes that have Rear Transition Module connectors on the back side of the backplane may use Male Vertical (Style R) connectors but not mirror the signals. At least some users have been surprised that the pin labeling vs signals is mirrored from their expectations.

Ultimately, please verify the pin numbering for your particular application. Winford does have labels available with the opposite order pin numbering that could be used to replace the labels that come pre-installed on the boards.

Mounting Options

These products are available in two different mounting variants. Product numbers ending with -DIN come with DIN clips already installed and ready to snap onto 35mm or 32mm DIN rail. Product numbers ending with -N have no mounting hardware included; they can be easily panel-mounted by using 1/4" nylon standoffs under the mounting holes, and #6 screws.
