Female DC Power adapter - 2.1mm jack to screw terminal block
If you need to connect a DC power wall wart to a board that doesn't have a DC jack - this adapter will come in very handy! There is a 2.1mm DC jack on one end, and a screw terminal block on the other.
Pinout
- +
Positive screw-terminal output from the 2.1 mm DC barrel jack, for positive-tip DC supplies. Source states the terminal block is labelled positive/negative assuming positive-tip configuration.
Type · powerVoltage · DC input voltage from the connected 2.1 mm positive-tip supply, not specified by Adafruit for this adapter - -
Negative screw-terminal output from the 2.1 mm DC barrel jack. Source states the terminal block is labelled positive/negative assuming positive-tip configuration.
