2.5mm Phone Jacks
Through-Hole Phone Jacks
3.5mm & 2.5mm – Industry‑Standard Sizes
3.5mm (1/8″) for consumer audio, laptops, smartphones, gaming headsets, and multimedia devices. 2.5mm (3/32″) sub‑miniature size for compact wearables, portable communication radios, embedded modules, and space‑constrained portable electronics where board real estate is at a premium.
TRS & TRRS – Stereo Audio & Microphone Support
TRS (3‑conductor) configuration for standard stereo audio (left / right / ground) – ideal for headphones, speakers, and line‑out applications. TRRS (4‑conductor) adds a microphone channel plus remote control button support (play/pause/volume), compatible with both CTIA and OMTP wiring standards for universal smartphone headset compatibility.
Multiple Termination Styles – SMT / DIP / Right‑Angle / Mid‑Mount
SMT (tape‑and‑reel) for automated pick‑and‑place assembly. DIP Through‑Hole for maximum mechanical retention and wave soldering. Right‑Angle (90°) for edge‑mount PCB designs. Mid‑Mount (recessed) for ultra‑thin devices reducing height above board. All termination styles support automated and manual assembly processes.
Gold‑Plated Contacts – Low Resistance & Corrosion Protection
Phosphor bronze contacts with standard gold plating deliver contact resistance ≤ 50mΩ initial, ensuring clean signal transmission and long‑term reliability. Gold plating provides superior corrosion protection against oxidation, maintaining signal integrity in humid or challenging environments.
Detection Switches – Tip Switch, Ring Switch & Dual‑Switch Configurations
Internal switch contacts (normally closed) actuated by plug insertion enable automatic speaker disconnect when headphones are plugged in, accessory detection, mode selection, and remote button‑press sensing. As documented in CUI Devices‘ audio jack technical guide, switched configurations allow designers to implement intelligent accessory interfaces without additional ICs.
RoHS 3, REACH, IEC 60603‑11 & ISO 9001:2015
All Vistar phone jack connectors are manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 and fully comply with RoHS 3 (EU Directive 2015/863) and REACH SVHC regulations. Dimensional and performance characteristics align with IEC 60603‑11 for LF concentric audio connectors – suitable for export to EU, North America, and all regulated global markets.
