This 6-Pin Tel Push Switch is a specialized electronic component designed for high-density circuit board applications requiring reliable dual-channel switching. Featuring a 24mm x 17mm compact footprint, this switch utilizes a Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) configuration, allowing for the simultaneous control of two separate circuits with a single actuation. Its robust self-locking (latching) mechanism ensures the switch maintains its state until manually toggled again, providing stable performance for power and signal routing.
6-Pin DPDT Configuration: Offers versatile switching capabilities, ideal for complex routing or phase-reversal tasks in electronic devices.
Self-Locking Latching Action: Provides a dependable "push-on/push-off" function that holds its position without continuous user pressure.
High-Precision PCB Terminals: Features vertically oriented pins designed for secure through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards.
Vibrant Blue Actuator: The high-contrast blue slider/button allows for easy visual status checks and ergonomic operation.
Durable Composite Housing: Engineered with heat-resistant materials to withstand standard soldering temperatures and prolonged mechanical use.
This 6-Pin Latching Switch is a staple in:
Telecommunications Equipment: Signal routing and line switching in traditional and digital telephony hardware.
Audio Engineering: Functioning as a source selector or phase inverter in custom mixers and amplifiers.
Industrial Controls: Ideal for mode selection or safety interlocks in automated control panels.
Consumer Electronics: Reliable power or function toggles for desktop appliances and specialized hobbyist projects.
Base Dimensions: 24mm x 17mm.
Switch Type: DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw).
Pin Count: 6-Pin (3 per side).
Mounting Type: Through-Hole PCB Mount.
Can I use this for momentary signal triggering?
No. This is a self-locking switch. It will stay in the new position once pressed. For momentary triggers, look for a "non-locking" or "momentary" variant of the 6-pin series.
Is it compatible with standard breadboards?
While the pin spacing is designed for PCB layouts, some standard breadboards may accommodate the 24mm width; however, custom PCB or perf-board mounting is recommended for the best stability.
How do I wire a DPDT 6-pin switch?
Generally, the center pair of pins acts as the "Common" terminals, while the top and bottom pairs are the outputs. This allows you to toggle between two different circuit paths for two separate lines simultaneously.
