Product Details:
Overview
The Switchcraft 712RA is a robust right-angle, through-hole power barrel jack designed for secure DC power connections, featuring a standard 2.5mm ID x 5.5mm OD mating interface. Its critical operational characteristic lies in the integrated single normally-closed (NC) internal switch, which provides essential power disconnect functionality upon cable removal, crucial for preventing system damage or unauthorized operation. A key design consideration for engineers is the trade-off between the 5A current rating and the potential for thermal management challenges in high-density power distribution applications, necessitating careful PCB layout and airflow assessment.
Key Features
- Connector Type: DC Power Jack
- Mating Interface: 2.50mm ID x 5.50mm OD
- Termination: Solder
- Internal Switch: Single, Normally Closed (NC)
- Current Rating: 5 A
- Mounting: Through Hole, Right Angle (5/16″-32 Thread)
Applications
The component is engineered for deployment in systems requiring high reliability and performance under specific operating conditions. It provides functional stability across the stated design envelope.
- Power sequencing for low-power embedded systems
- DC input for portable instrumentation and test equipment
- Reliable power termination in industrial control interfaces
- Interruption of power to peripherals upon cable disconnection
