Building an Inverted Pendulum System The Ups and Downs of Defying Gravity…

The 9411 and 9505 modules came in today.  As I expected, there were not any D-sub connectors since they don’t normally come with them.  What surprised me is that the power connectors were missing also.  Those connectors are not quite as common, so I panicked for a minute.  I ended up measuring the connector socket and finding a matching connector at Digikey.  It will be green instead of black, but otherwise it looks like a perfect match.  If anybody else needs to buy some, the two wire connector is part A98283-ND and the four wire connector is part A98451-ND.  I also ordered the D-sub connectors (L717SDE09P-ND, L77SDA15S-ND) and backshells (909GME-ND, 915GME-ND).  Total cost is about $9 plus shipping.  That’s a really good price for four connectors.  I am glad I waited until the modules came in to order the connectors so I didn’t have to place a second order.
