Illuminated switches suit use in medical devices
C and K Components
lluminated Tactile Switch (ITS) series
C and K Components has developed the Illuminated Tactile Switch (ITS) series, which are available in both vertical and right-angle configurations and suitable for a wide range of applications.
Possible applications include consumer electronics, server/storage, medical devices, test/measurement/instrumentation, audio/video, computers and peripherals, appliances, security and network infrastructure.
The switches are available in many different single LED colours and bi-colour options that are independent from the switching function.
The ITS series features a dome contact that provides crisp tactile feedback to positively indicate circuit transfer and to assure high reliability and long life of up to 100,000 operations.
The advanced ITS series design employs insert-moulded terminals to lock out flux, solvents and other contaminants used with automated soldering processes.
In addition, the ITS series can be customised to meet application requirements, with custom caps and legends available upon request.
Offered in thru-hole and SMT termination styles, the ITS series is pick-and-place compatible for SMT versions, as the tape-reel packaging allows for rapid automated placement of SMT devices.
