Connector for 1LC v1.2 IO 3 footprint
-
Is it any connectors that is a direct fit to be soldered on to the IO 3 footprint on a 1LC v1.2?
I'm looking into using if to connect a "AH3364Q-P-B" hall effect switch (if IO 3 is capable of running one), but it would be chill if i didn't have to solder the wires right on to the PCB.

@Exerqtor the IO3 pads are not intended for a connector; they are intended for a microswitch, a TCRT1000 optical sensor or a ITR2001/T or compatible optical sensor. For a Hall switch you need three pins (Gnd, IN and +5V) so a 2-pin connector that fits two of the pads would not be sufficient. However, I guess you cold use a 3-pin 2.5mm pitch socket, bend the middle pin back and solder the two outside pins to the Gnd and IN pins of the 3-pin switch footprint. You would still need to pick up +5V from somewhere.
