Hi Guys



Where can I find the wiring diagram for a DC stereo headset, the small dia. plug has tip, two rings and the barrel, I have the corresponding panel socket (three contacts plus barrel, I need schematic for the socket wiring.

Unless Iâ€™m missing something Eric, that circuit is relating to a â€˜Mikeâ€™ and PTT circuit, nothing to do with a stereo headphone.

     Above is standard stereo wiring for a 1/4" phone plug.

     Wiring terminals on the mating jack is kinda tricky to describe, but     not complicated. For a novice, the easiest way to ID the terminals     is to insert a stereo plug (see above) into the jack, and use an ohm     meter to ID continuity from each terminal on the plug, to each     terminal on the jack.

Sorry about that, John.  When you wrote "small diameter plug" and "two rings," I thought you were talking about the mic plug.  The industry standard mic plug is a 4-conductor TRRS plug of 0.206" diameter (p/n PJ-068), while the headphone is a 3-conductor TRS plug of 0.25" diameter (p/n PJ-055).

According to their data sheets...

and

http://www.davidclarkcompany.com/files/literature/H10-13X.pdf



...both of your headsets use the standard 1/4" PJ-055 stereo headphone plug.  As for which contact is left and which is right, perhaps Bob knows the standard in aviation.  Internet searching produces plenty of images, some showing tip=left and ring=right, others showing the opposite.  The only consistent feature is ground=sleeve.

A quick experiment will quickly reveal which way your headsets are wired.  With the headset over your ears, hold the negative side of a 1.5V battery (coin, AA, AAA) to the sleeve and use a wire connected to the positive side to alternately tap the tip and ring of the headset's plug.  You'll know from the static which contact is which.  Using this test, my Clarity Aloft is wired tip=left and ring=right.
