3.5mm stereo headphone socket that isn't.
I don't get this at all.
I need a 3.5mm switched stereo headphone socket to replace a broken surface mount PCB socket. So I bought this, the only one that Farnell sell. http://www.schurter.ch/var/schurter/..._4802.2300.pdf http://uk.farnell.com/schurter/4802-...pole/dp/143336 Only it is the wrong dimensions to fit a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. The jack plug will not go far enough into the socket, as the plug's collar meets the threaded part of the socket too early. Now I've measured a couple of headphone plugs, one on my Sony headphones, and from the collar to the end of the centre pin is 14mm. From the technical drawing above, it is clear that there is no way this can actually fit. In this technical drawing is another drawing of a 3.5mm plug that presumably mates with this socket, because it does not have the collar you find on headphone jack plugs. So are there 2 different types of 3.5mm plug/socket standards? Bizarre. |

This is a typical 3.5mm plug, length of shaft = 14.25mm http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1680205.pdf This is the Schurter one, length of shaft = 18.6mm. http://www.schurter.ch/var/schurter/..._4802.1300.pdf They are not compatible.
