2.5mm female connector.



Just a quick question for those who have disassembled their TI-85, or read
somewhere. The 2.5mm link port inside the calc, is it Normally Open (N.O.),
or Normally Closed (N.C.) (I'm talking the electrical continuity of the
physical connector)  i.e.

A Normally Open connector

|      \/--o   Tip
|  /\______o   Ring
|__________o   Sleeve


a Normally Closed connector

|        \/--------o    Tip
|             /\___o    N.C. on Tip
|             \/---o    N.C. on Ring
|    /\____________o    Ring
|__________________o    Sleeve


If the link port uses the N.O. type, I know I can use the N.C. connector by
not wiring anything to the N.C. contacts, but I'm going to be buying a few
of them for some projects, and the N.O. type are cheaper.

Thanks in advance.
