Compatibility
This power supply is compatible with any device requiring 9V DC and a 2.1mm center-positive barrel jack. It works directly with Arduino Uno and Mega boards via the DC jack, as well as with most breadboard power modules. For lower voltage boards like 3.3V or 5V systems, use a suitable voltage regulator.
Wiring Notes
The barrel jack uses a standard 2.1mm inner diameter with center positive. Connect the adapter output to your board's DC input jack; no additional wiring is needed for Arduino. For custom circuits, wire the positive to your voltage rail and negative to ground, ensuring the total current draw does not exceed 1A.
Why Buy from Compoden
Every component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.
Is this compatible with Arduino Uno?
Yes, the 9V 1A PSU is fully compatible with Arduino Uno. It supplies the recommended input voltage and ample current for most Uno projects.
Can I use this for a Raspberry Pi?
The Raspberry Pi requires 5V micro USB power. This 9V adapter is not directly compatible; however, you can use a DC-DC step-down converter to adapt the output for Pi projects.
What is the plug size?
The connector has a 2.1mm inner diameter barrel plug, which is standard for most development boards and electronics equipment.
