C&K Components has developed a side-actuated DIP switch that combines miniaturisation and high reliability for logic switching within computers and industrial controls.
The half-pitch TDP series features a dual bifurcated wiping action that ensures reliable contact. When mounted horizontally, the side-actuation mechanism provides visual confirmation of the on/off status, ideal for logic switching grids where multiple signal paths must be manually routed via switchboards.
The SPST (single pole single throw) switch is available in 2-, 4-, 6-, 8- and 10-position configurations. It measures just 4,16 mm above the PC board and features a 1,28 mm layout pitch. Process-sealed for surface mount wash processing, the RoHS-compatible device features gold over nickel over copper alloy contacts and a UL 94V-0 PPS flame retardant housing.
The TDP series is rated for 24 V d.c., 25 mA (switching) and 50 V d.c., 100 mA (steady state) operation with 1000 life cycles (make and break) at full load. The operating temperature range is -40°C to +85°C.
