This Micro Push Button Switch is an essential component for high-density electronic applications where reliable power toggling is required in a minimal footprint. Measuring just 9.60mm, this switch features a robust self-locking (latching) mechanism, staying in the "ON" position when pressed and returning to "OFF" with a second press. Its high-contrast white actuator and durable housing make it a professional choice for both industrial and consumer electronics.
Self-Locking (Latching) Action: Designed for "push-on/push-off" functionality, maintaining its state without constant user pressure.
Ultra-Compact 9.60mm Profile: Ideal for integration into small-scale control panels, handheld devices, and compact PCB designs.
Durable 2-Pin Terminals: Features two rear-mounted terminals designed for secure soldering or connection within low-voltage circuits.
High-Visibility White Actuator: Equipped with a crisp white plunger for easy operation and clear visual identification.
Versatile Voltage Compatibility: Built to handle standard electronic loads, often rated for common household and automotive voltages.
This Micro Latching Switch is the perfect solution for:
Portable Electronics: Serving as the primary power button for small gadgets and handheld tools.
DIY & Prototyping: A popular choice for Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and custom maker projects requiring a small latching toggle.
Network Hardware: Ideal for recessed reset or power-cycling buttons on modems and routers.
Automotive Accessories: Used for low-current auxiliary toggles in vehicle interiors.
Dimensions: 9.60mm (Height).
Type: Latching (Push-On, Push-Off).
Terminals: 2-Pin Solder Type.
Body Color: Black
Is this a "Momentary" switch?
No, this is a self-locking switch. It latches into place when you press it and stays there until you press it again to release it.
Will this fit on a standard breadboard?
Due to the pin spacing of micro switches, they often require a small PCB adapter or direct wire soldering rather than direct insertion into a standard breadboard.
What is the max current this can handle?
While compact, these switches are typically rated for small signal or power loads. Always check the specific amperage rating on the side of the switch to ensure it matches your circuit's needs.
