On page 1, connection diagrams, there's a port for "NC", what is that?

TIA

I'm not in EE, but: 1. it should explain on the pinout diagram (although it doesn't seem to) and 2. it might mean "no connection."

 

[kranky]

NC = no connection (in other words, it's not used)

 

[Heisenberg]

NC usually means no connection.

Agreed. NC is 'no connection'

I too, concur

Way back on the Fat Albert cartoon it meant "No Class."

Yeah, most of you guys are too young to remember that.

Since no one else has answered it yet, the answer is "No connect" (or connection, whatever).
