C&K Components has developed a new series of low-profile rotary DIP switches. Available in surface mount and through-hole models, the RTE series features SPDT, SP3T and SP4T rotary functions as well as rotary binary-decimal and hexadecimal coding.
The RTE B DIP switches improve marking visibility via a laser marking, which provides light characters on a dark background, resulting in a high contrast level. The coating features high adherence, along with ageing and corrosion resistance. Designed to withstand an accelerated life test of 3000 hours at 150°C (the equivalent of 20-year usage), the RTE HR DIP switches feature a special whisker-free contact plating for increased reliability. The extended life HR version of the switch is available upon request. Typical applications for the RTE series include timers and automation components, computers and peripherals, alarm and access control systems, and instrumentation equipment.
The DIP switches are available with gold- or silver-plated contacts. Maximum contact rating for the gold-plated switches is 100 mA at 30 V d.c., while the silver-plated contacts feature a contact rating of 100 mA at 50 V d.c. Maximum contact resistance is 100 mΩ. Mechanical life is 1500 actuations for the 2- and 3-position RTE switches and 20 000 actuations for the 4-, 10- and 16-position DIP switches. The switches are RoHS compliant and feature an operating temperature range of -25°C to +85°C. They measure 8,0 x 7,4 x 4,25 mm high.
