A magnetic pogo pin connector set with three 0.1" (2.54mm) spaced contact pins in a right-angle configuration. The two halves snap together via embedded magnets, ensuring all three pogo pins make reliable contact. If connected backwards, the magnets repel — providing built-in polarity protection.
The right-angle pins are solderable directly to your PCB, making this a versatile connector for power, data, or signal connections in projects that benefit from a quick-release magnetic interface.
Key Features
- Three Pogo Pin Contacts – Standard 0.1" (2.54mm) spacing for easy PCB integration
- Right-Angle Configuration – Solderable pins sit perpendicular to the mating face
- Magnetic Alignment – Embedded magnets snap the two halves together with correct polarity
- Reverse Polarity Protection – Magnets repel when connectors are oriented incorrectly
Ideal For
- Wearable electronics with detachable connections
- Charging docks and power connectors
- Quick-disconnect data or signal interfaces
- Prototyping magnetic connector systems
Package Contents
- 1× Magnetic connector pair (two matching halves)
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board is a rigid board with copper tracks that connect electronic parts without loose wires. For this kit, the PCBs also form the airplane shape, so they are both the circuit base and part of the finished model.
- reverse polarity protection
- A circuit feature that helps protect the board if power is connected the wrong way around. It matters because it can reduce the chance of damaging the breakout during wiring mistakes, especially in classroom or prototyping use.
