Electronic – Other name for VGA socket

componentsconnectorvga

I need a VGA socket for my project (preferably PCB mounted but that's not reevent probably). But I can't find such a thing at any of my usual suppliers.

I presume they have some other name I need to look for? Searching through the many thousand types of connector hasn't helped me so far…

So, my question is, what do I need to look for for a vga socket connector?

If you mean this one

that's known under different names, but the most common is D-sub 15 (sub for subminiature, which is a bit odd, since it's not that small). Other names you might encounter are mini D15 or HD15.
