Hi to all,
i just modified my tomtom holder for Xda2, connect pin for microphone audio left and right and car on swith.
anyone knows where is the digital audio ground for audio out pins? using connectors page on this site i found only the positive audio out, the same problem for microphone in.
Another question: does the car_on switch works? what's happen to that pin when i make or receive a call? does it switch to ground? or to +5v?
thanks to all,
cheers

maybe i'm stupid but as I said i used that page building my new connector, but that page doesnt speak about audio ground.
nomoretheless i cannot understand in which way the car_on is interpreted.. does it go to ground when in use or does it needs ground to be used? sorry for my bad english.
thanks

I believe the 40 pin connector has everything we could use including HDMI, USB, charging, and probably more.
Does anyone know the pinout and the mating connector? I want to make an adapter that would make the HDelight WHDI transmitter work with the tablet directly without the dock. It needs power from USB, in addition to HDMI. I am guessing both are in the 40 pin connector.
BUMP
Since the TF101 has been out a while, so hoping someone has some info on this?

I have got the 40pin connector but don't know what can i do with it.. ummm.. I mean, What's the accessories will be hot? A cable integrated HDMI,USB3.0 and WLAN? Dose TF101 has a WLAN? I haven't open my TF to see..

If you can make a bunch of Power Adapters for it...that's be great. I've been trying to find the 40pin connector for a while now.
I don't think people need HDMI out on the cable, b/c that's built-in in the form of a mini-HDMI cable. I think most people would want a way to hook up USB devices to it. A 40pin to USB hub (3-4 ports) would be really nice.
I think the power adapter for a reasonable price with a nice long cable would be an excellent start. 15V, 1.2A switching power supplies are cheap in China + wiring it up to the connector for $20-$25, I think you'd have no trouble selling those. As a bonus, if the adapter ALSO could take a 12V car adapter as input and not just 110-220V AC...well that's an easy sell right there!
Thanks!

Docking
Verkion,
I think using a USB car charger with the USB cable would work, wouldn't it? I haven't tried it though.
Anyway, if anyone gets hold of any info on the docking connector, pls let me know. I'll make it worth it!

nope, standard car chargers are 5v usb spec.... the TF only starts to charge at 11v or so, IIRC.

Can you divulge your source for the connector?? I can make a GRIP of specialized cables connectors and docks. I'll post all tech info on comm from the 40 pin.
I have found a 40 pin connector but can't post a link as a new member. I think the offset between the two rows of pins is incorrect but may help with someone else finding the correct one. I'll contact the admin to see if I can post the link.
You may be able to find it from web 'alwaysinnovating' wiki/index.php/40-pin_connector

Here's the link you're trying to share:
http://www.alwaysinnovating.com/wiki/index.php/40-pin_connector
(note: I've done nothing to confirm whether this is the right connector or in any way related to it myself, I'm just sharing the link to save somebody else the hassle of googling.)
That 40 pin connector doesn't have +15V lines. Hence the electrical layout might be a bit different than what's listed.
Thanks for posting the link. As AnTrans said, there is a good chance the pin out assignment listed on that site is NOT what the Asus uses but may point towards finding the correct connector.

The important part is it looks like he found the connector itself, and it seems to be available from some major US distributors. The rest is a matter of reverse engineering

Start with this:
The connector on the TF, the bit that slides into the proprietary port, measures:
3.0mm x 18.5mm on outer dimensions.

Hmm, how about this then? Too bad it has a 9 week lead time.

Edited: Yes you are right.
From the data sheet, also 2129261-1 will fit. The 3.3mm thick will fit into a receptacle that is 3.8mm thick. I think the pins are okay (might be wrong).
In *addition* to your choice, try this:
Mouser Part #: 571-2129261-1
Manufacturer Part #:
2129261-1
Manufacturer:
TE Connectivity
Description: I/O Connectors 40P PLUG, CRADLE MNT CHAMP DOCKING

UPDATE:
I edited my wrong post to reflect the correct information and reduce confusion. Great job pokey9000.

See the mfr's page here , particularly the "View Product Drawing" link. The dimensions of the plug are (excl. the latches) 18.5 x 3.1 x 7mm (7mm being the minimum start of the overmold). I don't have calipers on me right now, but the pins are on .3mm staggered centers, so the distance from an edge of pin 1 to the same edge of pin 40 is 11.7mm. I still think this looks like a winner.

Okay, I agree with you. I was wrong, looking at 3.8mm on the receptacle.
Both your part and my part are the correct outer dimensions. The differences only depend on what type of mount - board or cable.
Looking inside my ASUS cable with mag-glass the pins are staggered.
So I bought this: http://www.discountcell.com/cellular/pn/samsung_301128 antenna for my father in law. What's included with this doesn't plug directly into the S4 active external antenna port. I did some reading and found that I need an patch lead as discussed in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2442569 problem is that the antenna I bought doesn't match the connector of the patch lead. Is there another adapter I need? I'm willing to buy whatever is needed to make this antenna work with the s4 active. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help with this.

i dont know anything about this, but if you show me what the connectors look like, i may be able to tell you what they are to help look for a cable, unless you already know what there called.
once you know the technical name for the connectors needed, should just be a matter of putting that into google and hope there is one available.
For this android head unit, it came with the 20 pin that only has 2 RCA out channels.
Based on the schematic, the RCA-RR and RCA-RL are both on RCA pinout C. (See image).
This pinout is for an 8 pin connector.
For the life of me i can not find this connector anywhere.
Does anyone know wher i can get one?
I beleive the connector i need is the other image attached. But again, no idea where i can find it.

Only ten thousand to go... Happy hunting
PS: Or trying "2x4 pin connector" at ebay (search worldwide!) or aliexpress

Why not reach out to the manufacturer or seller of the unit and advise them that the needed connector for the rear speakers was not provided with the unit? Did you buy the unit used?
