Sure you could do it. You could even put 25 pins in 9 pin housing if you made the pitch smaller. They just don’t exist, and hopefully never will. Maybe not as

Maybe not as a standard, but I've seen a several companies stuff a crazy number of pins into a DE9 shell. I think one of them was my old GRiD Compass.
Beast of a machine. Heavy as hell, magnesium case, bubble memory, a screen that caused all televisions it was pointed at to lose their signal, and a sticker on the bottom saying it was illegal to use it in a whole list of countries, including Israel.
- leptons 1y agoSeems like it has 19 pins in a DE9 shell. That's a lot. VGA connectors were also in a DE9 shell, but had 15 pins. The funny thing about the GRiD DE9 connector is that it's labeled "Serial", but every DE9 serial port connector I've ever seen is 9-pin. I have to wonder what else they are cramming into that 20-pin DE9 "serial" port. http://raster-burn.net/wordpress/wp-content/gallery/grid-1139/dsc_2947sm.jpg http://raster-burn.net/wordpress/wp-content/gallery/grid-113...
