Hello forum,
I'm designing for my company a very-low-cost parallel (10 tap) programming tool for STM32F4 target.
The solution identified is an SBC with an isolated usb hub where 10 STLINK-V3MINIE are installed. Actually we've successfully tested this setup in lab, where 10 instances of STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe (pointing each one to one of the 10 different programmers' SNs) are launched via cmd.exe.
Every target board is fixtured to the assembly via a bed-of-nails and my actual difficulty is to connect each nails to STLINK-V3MINIE SWD lines: I can't solder directly the nails to the STDC14 cable since I should use the flat from IDC as pigtail and I don't like the ridiculous AWG and, for various reasons, I don't want to customize the STLINK-V3MINIE soldering, e.g., a female header to card-edge pads connector (as I did for my lab tool).
We're considering in using the board-to-board connector with is designed to use with the AVX 009159010061911 which is a board-to-board connector but I haven't find in the AVX catalog a compatible 2.00mm top+bottom wire-to-board (wire to card-edge) alternative that would enable the bed-of-nails cabling to reach a connector which I could easily remove from the programmer for maintenance.
Anyone have already find a solution for that?
Thanks in advance,
Luca
