Audio host position DIN size detailed

When reading a car evaluation or modification article, it can be seen that the size of the audio host is often described in terms of “2DIN size” and “standard DIN size” when introducing a center console audio host. What is "DIN size"?

The so-called DIN size refers to the size standard developed by the German Standards Association, and here refers specifically to the audio size specification. DIN is the abbreviation of the German Standards Association (Deutsches Institut für Normung eV), so the earliest DIN size was also the audio size specification used in Germany.

Applied to the automotive industry, the DIN position refers to the standard mounting space reserved for automotive electrical appliances in the car center console. 1DIN refers to a standard space (width, height, and depth is not limited), and 2DIN is twice the space of 1DIN. This location is generally used for audio host, tuner, LCD display installation.

DIN Introduction

The German Standards Association (DIN) is Germany's standard authority, established in 1917 and headquartered in Berlin. Since 1975, the German government has put DIN as a national standard system and represents Germany's interests in the international and European context.

DIN presides over a forum of manufacturing industry, consumer organizations, business, trade, service industry, scientific community, technical examiners and government representatives. Delegates discuss and formulate standardization requirements in specific areas and eventually form German standards. The standardization work carried out by DIN is to benefit the entire society. This work has already had a significant impact on the economic development of both the company and the country. The DIN standard plays an important role in promoting economic optimization, quality assurance, safety, environmental protection, and communication between industry, technology, science, government, the scientific community, and the public.

Most of the DIN standards were developed for the German market; however, they are also widely used in European countries and are used by manufacturers exporting to Germany and the European Community. And, due to the strict specifications and extensive content of the DIN standard, it is also used by global stakeholders in teaching and product development.
