Unfortunately, the BDM connector on the H300 is not mounted, so you need to solder a ZIF connector to be able to connect it. Furthermore, it is not a standard BDM connector, so you need to build an adapter as well. And I guess that such a connector wouldn't fit it inside the snug H300 case?

I am terribly sorry. I measured pitch of the connector against lm339 on the photo and connector is standard 1.0 mm pitch. This one is easy to get. Sorry again. Anyway - Linus can You confirm H300 uses 20pin 1.0mm pitch connector - from photos it looks exactly the same as in HD200. 2009/11/23

I am measuring pitch on the photo and compare to datasheets for other parts on the photo and I am quite confused. 0.5 mm sounds resonable looking at my own eyes on PCB but measuring on the photo I am not such sure :/ I think 20pin 0.5mm is available in local electronic store. First I will try this
