Ribbon Wire for MSP 430 launchpad (Texas Instruments)

Hey everyone,

So apparently I ordered ribbon wire fromm digikey and the excepted time of arrival will be 3/15/17....

https://www.digikey.com/product-deta...036M-ND/999158

Yea, it doesn't help and I need the wire ASAP....

Anyway, does anyone have any suggestions of alternatives for this wire linked above?

Thanks.

Amazon has a bunch of them on Prime. I used the search term "ribbon wire 20p".

That item is just the cable, and doesn't have the connectors on the ends.

The Digikey items are what they call "Value Add," which means they assemble the cables in-house and send them to you, which increases lead time. You can do the same thing, but personally I never have much success with manually crimping those ICD ends on. Something like this will work fine as a replacement for your Digikey part, just make sure it's the right length for you: https://www.amazon.com/Pc-Accessorie...bbon+cable+20p
