Engineered for high-performance hardware, our 5.5mm x 2.5mm PCB-Mount DC Jack provides a rugged and reliable power entry point for your printed circuit boards. This right-angle socket features the larger 2.5mm center pin, making it the correct choice for high-draw applications such as high-power LED drivers, industrial controllers, and charging circuits. Designed for through-hole mounting, it offers exceptional mechanical stability and electrical conductivity.
High-Current Device Design: Ideal for PCBs that draw more than 5A, where a standard 2.1mm jack might overheat.
Laptop & Monitor Repair: The standard replacement part for power ports on many high-end monitors, gaming laptops, and docking stations.
Industrial Power Supplies: Perfect for board-level power inputs in automation controllers and heavy-duty 12V/24V systems.
Audio Amplifiers: Specifically used in Class-D amplifiers and studio equipment that require a high-wattage DC feed.
Heavy-Duty 2.5mm Center Pin: Optimized for 5.5 x 2.5mm power adapters, ensuring a high-surface-area contact to reduce resistance and heat.
3-Pin "Shunt" Configuration: Features a built-in switch pin that allows your circuit to automatically toggle between internal battery power and external DC input.
Reinforced Mechanical Pins: The flat, wide solder pins act as anchors, absorbing the stress of frequent plugging and unplugging to prevent board-trace damage.
Superior Thermal Stability: Molded from high-grade, heat-resistant thermoplastic that won't warp or melt during professional soldering or high-load operation.
Secure "Click-Lock" Fit: Internal leaf springs are tensioned to provide a firm grip on male plugs, preventing accidental power interruptions.
Industry Standard Footprint: Compatible with standard 2.5mm DC jack PCB layouts, making it a drop-in replacement for most electronic repairs.
Connector Size: 5.5mm (Outer) x 2.5mm (Inner Pin)
Mounting: Through-Hole (Typically 3-Pin)
How do I distinguish this from a 2.1mm PCB jack?
Visually, the center pin on this model is thicker (2.5mm vs 2.1mm). If you try to plug a 2.1mm adapter into this, it will not fit over the pin. If a 2.5mm adapter fits but feels loose on your board, you likely have the wrong jack size.
What is the footprint for this?
It typically uses a standard 3-pin triangular footprint. We recommend checking the specific technical drawing for pin spacing before finalizing your PCB layout.
