A self-locking push switch: press once for on, press again for off, and it holds its state with no power. Six pins give a double-pole change-over, so a single press moves two circuits together - which is why this part is so often used as the power latch on a small board. This is the shorter 6 mm actuator version, sitting lower than its 8 mm sibling. It is a low-current signal switch, not a mains switch.
Key features
- Latching: push on, push off - not momentary
- Six pins, double-pole change-over (DPDT)
- Shorter 6 mm actuator, low profile
- Through-hole PCB mounting on 2.5 mm pitch
- Around 0.5 A - signal and low-power loads
- Common as a power latch on small gadgets
