The 2-Pin JST-SM Connector is a widely used electrical connector designed for secure and reliable low-voltage connections in various applications, including LED lighting, robotics, and drones. This connector set includes both male and female components, allowing for the creation of custom cable assemblies tailored to specific project needs.

Key Features:

Connector Type: JST SM 2-pin male and female pair.

Pitch: 2.54mm (distance between pins).

Wire Gauge Compatibility: Typically accommodates 22 AWG wires, suitable for low-current applications.

Locking Mechanism: Features a latching system to ensure a secure connection, preventing accidental disconnections.

Polarization: Keyed design to prevent reverse connections, ensuring correct orientation during assembly.

Crimping Your Own JST-SM Connectors:

To assemble custom cables using 2-pin JST-SM connectors, you'll need the appropriate male and female connector housings, corresponding crimp terminals, and suitable wire (commonly 22 AWG). The process involves stripping the wire ends, crimping the terminals onto the wires using a compatible crimping tool, and inserting the terminals into the connector housings until they lock into place. This method allows for tailored cable lengths and configurations, enhancing the versatility of your projects.

Applications:

• LED Lighting: Commonly used to connect LED strips and modules, providing a secure and detachable link.

• Robotics and Drones: Ideal for low-voltage connections where space and weight are considerations.

• General Electronics: Suitable for various low-current applications requiring reliable connections.
