Key Features
- 2.5 mm (sub-mini) 4-conductor TRRS stereo audio jack supporting left, right, ground, and microphone signals in a compact through-hole footprint
- Solder-type termination for strong PCB mechanical retention, rated to withstand repeated plug insertion and extraction cycles
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging compatible with automated pick-and-place and wave solder assembly for efficient high-volume production
Applications
The STX-25427-6N-TR is used in portable audio devices, wireless headsets, and handheld consumer electronics where a compact 2.5 mm TRRS stereo jack is needed for headphone-plus-microphone connectivity. It supports 4-conductor TRRS wiring, enabling mono or stereo audio output along with a microphone input on a single 2.5 mm plug. The through-hole solder design provides the mechanical durability required in handheld devices subject to frequent plug insertion.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many conductors does the STX-25427-6N-TR support, and what signals can it carry?
The STX-25427-6N-TR supports 4 conductors in a TRRS (Tip-Ring-Ring-Sleeve) configuration, carrying left audio, right audio, ground, and a microphone signal over a single 2.5 mm plug. This makes it suitable for combined headphone-plus-microphone applications in portable devices and communication headsets.
How does a 2.5 mm TRRS jack like STX-25427-6N-TR differ from a standard 3.5 mm audio jack for device design?
The 2.5 mm sub-mini diameter is roughly 30% smaller than the 3.5 mm standard, saving approximately 3 mm of PCB keep-out height, which is critical for ultra-compact handheld devices. The 4-conductor TRRS wiring on both standards supports stereo audio plus microphone; choosing 2.5 mm reduces mechanical footprint at the cost of compatibility with standard 3.5 mm headphones requiring an adapter.
What assembly method does the STX-25427-6N-TR use, and does it support automated production?
The STX-25427-6N-TR uses through-hole solder termination, providing strong mechanical anchorage when wave soldered on 1.6 mm standard PCB. The TR (tape-and-reel) packaging suffix indicates the part ships in carrier tape spaced for pick-and-place feeders, enabling automated insertion into through-hole assembly lines at production volumes of hundreds to thousands of units.
