Description
TRRS stands for "Tip, Ring, Ring, Sleeve," which reflects the fact that, unlike a standard stereo connector, this actually has three conductors and a ground. Some devices use the extra conductor for a microphone (like hands-free headsets) or to carry a video signal (like in some MP3/MP4 players). This breakout board makes it easy to add a TRRS jack to your prototype or project by breaking out each conductor to a standard 0.1" spaced header.
A TRRS 3.5mm audio jack breakout is a specialized type of 3.5mm audio jack that is designed to provide access to four separate audio channels: left audio, right audio, microphone input, and ground. The acronym TRRS stands for Tip, Ring, Ring, Sleeve, which refers to the four contact points on the connector. The TRRS 3.5mm audio jack breakout typically includes a female connector with solder pads or pins on the other end, allowing it to be easily integrated into electronic projects. This type of connector is commonly used in smartphones, tablets, and laptops to support the use of headphones with built-in microphones. With a TRRS 3.5mm audio jack breakout, it is possible to connect audio signals and microphones to other electronic components, such as amplifiers, microcontrollers, or signal processing modules, enabling a wide range of audio applications. This module is essential for electronics projects that require the use of audio signals and microphones, such as voice recognition systems, sound recording and playback systems, and mobile communication devices. Its compact size and easy-to-use design make it a versatile tool for audio enthusiasts, hobbyists, and professionals.
TRRS 3.5mm Audio Jack Breakout Dimensions
A 3.5mm audio jack, also known as a mini-phone jack or a headphone jack, is a type of connector that is commonly used to transmit audio signals. It is a small, cylindrical connector that measures 3.5mm in diameter and is typically found on audio devices such as smartphones, laptops, and music players. The 3.5mm audio jack is a standard interface for headphones and speakers and is used to transmit both analog and digital audio signals. It has become a ubiquitous connector for audio devices due to its compact size, ease of use, and widespread availability. The 3.5mm audio jack has also become an important standard in the audio industry, with many audio products designed specifically to work with this type of connector.
