breadboardconnectorheaderpins
I am not able to find any breadboard headers for this particular usb asp connector
They do exist because I've seen then at school, but I can't seem to find them online. I bought breakable male male pins, but they are too short to fit in the board. I also bought a black header for it on ebay, but it is also too short for the breadboard, only good for soldering.
Are those jumpers beside the connector? Then probably the connector can be connected using the common jumper wires (available with up to at least 10 pins in one housing). Servo cables usually have a different kind of connector (rounded corners).
To make your own jumper leads, you can buy crimp connector housings from pololu. They also sell pre-crimped wires, if you don't want to crimp them yourself.
""Standard"" length means any length that fits your desired use, unless you are talking about using them with some specific goal in mind.
A through hole header has five main dimensions. Pitch between pins, size of the pin, length of the bottom side, length of the post, and length of the top side.
The most common are 0.1" pitch, 0.025" square pins. "A" in that picture is the side that goes through your pcb. If your pcb is very thick, and A is too short, you will not be able to properly solder it. If the pcb is too thin and A is too long, you could short something out, have a lopsided board or have to cut them. "C" in that picture is the top side length. This mates with a connector. Too short and it might not be secure or might not have a good electrical connection. Too long, and the connector doesn't sit flush with the posts, so you might end up bending them.
Having just measured a ide/pata header, it is ~0.25" C with a B total length of ~0.435" (7/14th) (eyeballed/rounded). For samtec parts, this is actually A = 0.100", C = 0.230", B = 0.430". This is the general IDE/PATA standard header, and pretty much all computer headers fit this.
Personally I find those too small for breadboard or general use, longer headers are more useful (I go with slightly longer .126/.456/.230 or headers that are pretty much end up equal length on both sides of a pcb .300/.630/.230)
Best Answer
I have 2 different solutions that I've used for this:
Loose wires inserted into the IDC and breadboard
This works for any chip, but can be a pain to move between chips.
PCB-mounted adapter using extra-long headers
This must be done custom per chip but is extremely reliable, and allows additional embellishments such as a button to make powering the chip from the programmer optional.
I will include pictures of both solutions when I am able to.
