2 PIN RECTANGULAR MAGNETIC CHARGING CABLE

Engineering Summary

This 2 pin magnetic charging cable is a complete cable assembly with a compact rectangular molded head, a protruding mating tongue and two visible electrical contact positions.

The two contacts are assigned according to the approved Pin Map. Charging is the confirmed function of this product, while polarity, contact type, voltage, current capability and opposite-end termination are project-specific.

Magnets primarily assist capture and retention. Final position, alignment and seating should be controlled by the visible guide features, mating housing and mechanical geometry rather than by magnetic attraction alone.

Rectangular Guided Mating Head

The visible charging head uses a rectangular molded housing with a narrower mating tongue extending from the front of the cable head.

Guide or rib features are visible around the mating area. Their exact mechanical function, dimensional tolerances and any polarity-keying role should be confirmed by the approved device-side drawing.

Pin Count Two electrical contact positions

Head Shape Compact rectangular molded housing

Mating Geometry Protruding tongue with visible guide features

Primary Function Project-defined charging interface

2-Pin Charging Pin Map and Polarity

The approved drawing should identify Pin 1, viewing direction, positive and return allocation, and the exact position of both electrical contacts.

The cable-side and device-side drawings should use the same viewing reference so the two-contact assignment cannot be mirrored during electrical or mechanical integration.

If the visible guide geometry is intended to control mating orientation or polarity, that function should be defined in the mechanical drawing rather than assumed from product appearance.

Magnetic Capture and Mechanical Seating

The magnetic structure assists the charging head during approach and helps retain the interface after engagement.

Capture force, retention force, separation force and peel force describe different mechanical conditions. The required magnetic behavior should be defined around the device geometry, cable handling and intended release direction.

Final alignment and seating should be controlled by the mating tongue, guide geometry, housing datums and seating surfaces. Magnetic attraction alone should not be treated as proof of a valid electrical connection.

Contact Compliance and Working Stroke

The product image confirms two electrical contact positions, but the spring-loaded contact structure and travel values should be confirmed from the approved drawing.

If spring-loaded pogo contacts are used, working stroke and total travel must be treated as separate parameters. The working stroke defines the intended operating compression, while total travel represents the available mechanical movement.

The mating housing should establish the final mechanical seating condition. Spring contacts should provide electrical contact and controlled compliance rather than act as the primary mechanical hard stop.

Charging Current and Complete Conductive Path

Charging-current capability cannot be determined from the two-contact configuration or contact size alone.

Power Source → Opposite-End Termination → Cable Conductors → Magnetic Charging Head → Electrical Contact Interface → Device-Side Contacts → Device PCB → Charging Circuit → Battery / Load

Vdrop = I × Rpath
Ploss = I² × Rpath

Cable length, conductor gauge, termination resistance, contact resistance, mating condition, device-side PCB copper and operating temperature should be evaluated together before a continuous-current rating is released.

Continuous current and peak current should be defined separately when the charging system includes transient or intermittent operating conditions.

USB and Data Function Require Separate Confirmation

Charging is the confirmed function of this cable. USB termination or USB data capability should not be assumed from the existing product name or URL.

If the opposite cable end uses USB-A, USB-C or another standard connector, the exact termination should be defined by the approved cable drawing.

Any data function must be evaluated separately through the complete electrical channel. A two-contact interface does not by itself establish a USB data protocol or supported data rate.

Cable Construction and Opposite-End Termination

The rectangular magnetic charging head is only one part of the complete cable assembly.

Cable length, conductor count, wire gauge, conductor material, outer jacket, strain relief and opposite-end termination should be defined together with the charging requirements of the device.

USB-A, USB-C, DC plug, terminal, bare wire or another custom interface should only be stated after the approved cable drawing confirms the actual configuration.

  • Detachable device power interfaces
  • Customer-defined charging systems

Final application suitability depends on the approved Pin Map, electrical load, mating geometry, cable construction, magnetic behavior and environmental requirements.

Environmental and Reliability Validation

Environmental capability should be validated for the complete cable assembly and installed mating interface under defined test conditions.

Corrosion behavior, mating-cycle capability, cable bending life and operating-temperature performance depend on the actual contact material, surface finish, cable construction and application conditions.

The rectangular housing and guide structure do not establish a waterproof rating. An IP rating should only be claimed when the complete mating and sealing assembly has been defined and tested.
