AC-DC Switching Regulated Power Supply 6V DC @ 880mA; 2.1 x 5.5mm (+) center polarity | SW-608A
Part SW-608A
Input: 100–240VAC, 50/60Hz (Universal — works worldwide)
Output: 6VDC @ 880mA (5.28W)
Connector: 2.1mm ID × 5.5mm OD barrel plug
Preset Polarity: (+) Positive center — ready to use out of the box for the majority of 6V DC-powered devices.
Because the barrel plug is detachable and reversible, polarity can easily be switched to (−) Negative center to match devices that require tip-negative wiring — no tools or modifications needed.
Compatible Devices (Negative Center / Tip-Negative Applications):
When set to (−) negative center polarity, this power supply is compatible with the Radio Shack DX-390 (also sold as the Sangean ATS-818ACS) shortwave/AM/FM portable radio, which requires 6VDC with a 2.1×5.5mm negative-tip plug. Other devices that commonly use 6VDC with negative center polarity in this connector size include select vintage Radio Shack / Realistic portable radios, certain Uniden handheld scanners, and other consumer electronics specifying a 6V, 2.1×5.5mm tip-negative supply.
Always verify your device's polarity marking before connecting. The polarity symbol on your device's label or DC input jack will indicate (+) or (−) at the center pin.
