I have a 888md plc and the analog inputs come in on a 15-pin 2 row D-Sub , What i am looking for is this D-sub that will take a ribbon cable, like the programing cable that comes with the plc's. I have looked for this until my eye's crossed....lol . So if somone has a direct link to it, or could give me the correct name of it I would be greatfull, Thank's Tim

Go to Digikey.com and search for "D-sub ribbon" and you can find quite a few of them. The digikey catalog page for this is as follow:

or search for part number: AMR15G-ND

In working with the DB15s Connectore to ribbon cable solution, you should beware that the pin numbering of 1 to 15 is not the same on the ribbon. I my case I wanted to terminate the ribbon to a PC board using a 16 pin dual in line protecetive header, AMP 103310-3, Digikey A26290-nd using a Socket ribbon connector, AMP 746285-3. The corresponding pin numbers ended like this
DB15P 16PIN Dual Header
1 1
2 3
3 5
4 7
5 9
6 11
7 13
8 15
9 2
10 4
11 6
12 8
13 10
14 12
15 14
