Slide Switches
A slide switch is a switch that operates by sliding the lever up and down or left and right. The switch is installed on a circuit board and when it receives an operation, inputs a signal to an electric circuit. There are two types of slide switches: an illuminated type that is lit by ON / OFF, etc., and a non-illuminated type that is not lit. Some switches using antistatic resin for the switch housing can be grounded to the PCB via the foot of the mounting plate. Check the contact configuration and dimensions when selecting. In addition, there is surface mounting for soldering on the surface for mounting on the circuit board and insertion mounting for soldering by inserting it into the hole of the circuit board, so it is necessary to check the shape of the contacts and terminals. The PC terminal is standardized at 2.54 mm, and when operating the switch from the side, select the H terminal.
