The 2.1mm Female DC Power Jack Breakout Module is an indispensable, prototyping-ready power interface designed to transition standard low-voltage DC barrel connectors into a breadboard-friendly 2.54mm (0.1 inch) pin pitch layout. Featuring the industry-standard 2.1mm center pin within a 5.5mm outer diameter socket, this module allows developers to instantly pipe power from ubiquitous commercial AC/DC wall adapters directly into custom circuits without the need for manual wire stripping, messy splicing, or delicate surface-mount soldering.
Pre-soldered onto a rigid, high-quality printed circuit board (PCB) with clearly labeled terminal pins, this breakout ensures an ultra-low resistance connection capable of handling steady current loads. It is the perfect rapid-deployment solution for powering embedded microcontroller frameworks, custom logic boards, automated sensor nodes, and DIY electronic test rigs requiring a reliable, easily disconnectable main power feed.
Breadboard-Ready Pin Layout: Breaks out the DC power lines to a standard 2.54mm (0.1 inch) header pitch, allowing seamless drop-in integration onto standard solderless breadboards, perfboards, and prototyping grids.
Universal 2.1mm x 5.5mm Socket: Engineered to establish a firm, snap-fit physical connection with matching 2.1mm male barrel plugs, entirely preventing accidental power dropouts from mechanical vibration or cable tugs.
Pre-Assembled PCB Design: Eliminates the frustration of hand-soldering tiny, high-thermal-mass connector pins; the jack is permanently flow-soldered to a rigid FR-4 fiberglass backing board.
Clearly Marked Power Terminals: Features distinct, high-contrast silkscreen labeling for VCC (Positive) and GND (Negative/Ground) routing to ensure safe, error-free wiring during rapid prototyping.
Integrated Secondary Breakouts: The board layout often includes multi-point pin pads, making it easy to solder multiple output wire trunks or bypass capacitors directly to the incoming power rail.
