Footprint on the back of the TPL5111 breakout?

Post by eagereyes »

I just saw the TPL5111 breakout board – nice! I'm curious what that footprint on the back of the board is for, though. It looks like it's supposed to fit some sort of connector. What's the idea there?

That's for a JST-PH2 jack:

It mates with the connectors on our LiPos. We expect that board to be used in a lot of battery-powered projects, and that's a convenient spot for a battery connector.
