Logseq/Entity/Hardware/Connector/Audio

• Audio Connector

  • In this garden, Audio Connector pages model one physical connector that carries an audio signal: the mated plug and jack, the contacts it exposes, and what each contact carries.

  • Granularities

    • Connector — one connector at one size, the page specs and pinouts attach to, e.g. Audio/Connector/Phone/TRS/3.5mm.
    • Family — a group sharing a shape or a contact layout, e.g. Audio/Connector/Phone and Audio/Connector/Phone/TRS. A family page compares its members and leaves the specs to them.
    • Not this type: a cable assembly, a digital transport such as USB or HDMI, or the port list of a piece of gear. A device names the connector its ports take and links to that page.

  • Naming

    • Paths run from shape to detail: Audio/Connector/<Family>/<Contact layout>/<Size>. A family with one layout drops that segment, as in Audio/Connector/RCA/Stereo.
    • The size segment carries its unit and no space: 3.5mm. Contact layouts keep the trade abbreviation in capitals: TS, TRS, TRRS.
    • Shop and catalog names — "3.5mm Headset Jack", "1/8 inch Stereo Audio Jack" — go in alias:: only when codekiln asks for them, per My/AI/Rule/Logseq/No Aliases Unless Asked.

  • Finding and deduplicating

    • Search the size and the layout abbreviation together before creating a page. One connector is sold under several names, so an existing page's alias:: often already holds the name at hand.

  • Frontmatter

    • Connector and family pages alike carry logseq-entity:: [[Logseq/Entity/Hardware/Connector/Audio]].
    • Shared frontmatter conventions live on Logseq/Frontmatter.

  • Page shape

    • A connector page runs: Visual Reference, an image with its credit line; Overview, what the abbreviation stands for and what the connector is for; Physical Specifications, diameter, contact count and insulating rings; Pin Configuration, what each contact carries; Common Use Cases; and Compatibility, which connectors physically mate with it and what happens to the spare contacts.
    • A family page carries a comparison table of its members and the traits they share.

  • Examples in this garden
