3 Pin 3.5mm PCB Mount Socket Pack

This pack contains twenty female stereo jack sockets designed for direct PCB mounting. Each connector accepts a standard 3.5 mm plug with three pins for left, right and ground signals. The components arrive new and ready for soldering onto circuit boards in audio devices.

Metal and Plastic Build With Compact Footprint

The housing combines metal and plastic in a silver tone and black finish. Without pins the body measures 1.4 x 0.6 x 0.5 cm, or 0.55 x 0.25 x 0.2 inches, keeping the profile low inside tight enclosures. Through-hole pins anchor the socket firmly to the board so cable strain transfers to the PCB rather than the solder joints.

Direct Replacement For Damaged 3.5mm Board Sockets

These sockets serve as drop-in replacements for broken 3.5 mm PCB jacks in media players, portable audio gear, notebooks, phones and car audio systems. The repair is worthwhile when the original jack has cracked solder or worn contacts but the surrounding circuitry remains intact. Buyers needing surface-mount footprints or four-pole TRRS pinouts will need a different part.

Questions about this item

What does the 3.5 mm 3-pin stereo jack interface limit in practice?

The 3.5 mm 3-pin stereo jack carries left and right audio plus ground, so it caps the connection to unbalanced analogue stereo and cannot carry microphone, video or balanced signals.

What PCB footprint and clearance does the 1.4 × 0.6 cm body with 0.5 cm height need?

The socket body measures 1.4 cm long by 0.6 cm wide and sits 0.5 cm tall above the board, so the footprint must accommodate those dimensions plus through-hole pin clearance.

How is the connector soldered to the board, and which step is often missed?

Insert the three pins through the PCB holes, solder each pin on the opposite side, then verify continuity between tip, ring and sleeve before closing the enclosure.
