Frequently Asked Questions
How many pins does the STX-3120-5B-284C have, and what signals can it route?
The STX-3120-5B-284C provides 5 pins in a through-hole configuration, supporting stereo left/right audio, ground, and microphone signals as found in standard TRRS 3.5 mm interfaces. The additional switching contacts allow circuits to sense plug insertion and re-route up to 1 A at 30 V DC, enabling auto-detection in audio equipment.
For a portable speaker design, how does the STX-3120-5B-284C's switching contact feature affect circuit design?
The built-in switching contacts open or close at 30 V DC / 1 A when a 3.5 mm plug is inserted, allowing designers to automatically mute internal speakers or redirect audio paths without adding external relay logic. This reduces component count by 2–4 parts per channel and simplifies PCB layout in battery-powered portable speakers and tablet accessories.
What is the board mounting style of the STX-3120-5B-284C, and how does it affect PCB mechanical stability?
The STX-3120-5B-284C uses through-hole mounting with a metal shell that anchors to the PCB through 5 pins, providing strong mechanical retention that withstands repeated plug insertion forces. This is superior to SMT-only audio jacks in applications where users frequently connect headphones 500 or more times over a product lifetime.
In what consumer or industrial devices is the Kycon STX-3120-5B-284C most commonly designed in?
The STX-3120-5B-284C appears frequently in laptop audio I/O circuits, portable recorders, USB audio adapters, and IoT voice-interface modules that need a 3.5 mm stereo-plus-mic jack with plug-detection switching. Its 30 V DC rating also covers low-voltage industrial intercom panels requiring a standard 3.5 mm audio interface with automatic signal switching at up to 1 A.
