- Description:
- A tactile switch, also referred to as a momentary push-button switch, is an electromechanical switch that activates momentarily when pressed, providing tactile feedback to the user.
- Available in single pole, single throw (SPST) or single pole, double throw (SPDT) configurations, these switches offer versatility in circuit design and application, accommodating different requirements for circuit control and signaling.
- Tactile switches are designed to withstand repeated actuations and offer reliable performance over their operating life, making them suitable for use in a wide range of electronic devices and systems.
- With actuation forces typically ranging from 50 grams to 250 grams, tactile switches provide tactile feedback to the user, enhancing the user experience and improving operability in devices such as keyboards, remote controls, game controllers, and industrial control panels.
- Available in through-hole or surface mount configurations, tactile switches offer flexibility in installation and integration into electronic assemblies and PCB layouts, catering to various manufacturing processes and design preferences.
