Compact 3-position DIP sliding switch designed for reliable, precise switching in small electronic devices. Ideal when you need a small, low-force, long-life switch that fits standard 2.54 mm pitch PCBs. Key benefits Precise, short-stroke operation: Small contact travel and low actuation force deliver fast, accurate switching for repeatable performance. Long service life: High-precision mechanism and robust construction provide sharp tactile feedback and extended durability. Easy to integrate: Standard DIP footprint and 2.54 mm pitch make mounting and replacement straightforward in many circuit designs. Protected packaging: Pen-style plastic packaging minimizes contamination during storage and handling. Features and specifications Type: 3 Position Sliding Type DIP Switch Poles/Pins: 2 x 3 Pins Pitch: 2.54 mm Electrical ratings: Non-switching rated power: 100 mA DC 50 V Switching capacity: 25 mA DC 24 V Resistance: 50 mΩ 24VDC/100mA; 100 mΩ typical, 24VDC/100mA Size: 1 x 0.9 x 1.1 cm (0.39 x 0.35 x 0.43 inches) Material: electrical parts (industrial-grade components for reliable electrical contact and insulation) Why customers need this product Saves space: Small footprint and compact dimensions allow use in tight enclosures and dense PCBs. Improves reliability: Low-contact resistance and precise mechanism reduce contact wear and improve long-term performance. Simplifies design and repair: Standard DIP format and 2.54 mm pitch ensure compatibility with common headers and replacement parts. Typical applications Household appliances and toys: Use for mode selection and configuration switches in compact consumer devices. Audio equipment and office machines: Set functional modes or calibrations in mixers, printers, and other desktop electronics. Computer peripherals and communication equipment: Ideal for settings in mice, control panels, routers, and other small electronic assemblies. Package and handling Supplied in pen-style plastic packaging to protect switches from contamination during storage and transport. Compatibility note Designed for direct PCB mounting where 2.54 mm pitch and 2 x 3 pin DIP layout are required. Ensure voltage and current ratings match your application before use.
