PJ-102AH

Same Sky · DC Power Jack · Barrel Jack (2.0 mm, horizontal)

The PJ-102AH is a horizontal PCB-mount DC power barrel jack that accepts a 2.0 mm center-pin plug. It includes a normally-closed switch terminal that opens when a plug is inserted, so a design can cut over from an internal supply to external DC automatically. It is a common DC input connector for adapters and wall supplies.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 TIP passive Center pin contact (2.0 mm tip). Connects to the plug's center conductor, typically the positive supply rail. Rated 24 Vdc / 5.0 A; contact resistance 30 mΩ max.
2 SLEEVE passive Outer sleeve/barrel contact, typically the return (ground) path. Also serves as the common of the internal switch: when a plug is inserted, terminal 3 disconnects from this terminal 2.
3 SW passive Normally-closed switch contact. Shorted to terminal 2 (sleeve) when no plug is mated, and opens when a plug is inserted. Commonly used to auto-disconnect an internal battery when the DC jack is powered.
