Small claims for tact switches
ITT Interconnect Solutions
KMR series switches
New from ITT Industries, Cannon is a device claimed to be the smallest, top-actuated SMT tact switch in the world.
New from ITT Industries, Cannon is a device claimed to be thesmallest, top-actuated SMT tact switch in the world.
Especiallytargeted at designers of portable communications andentertainment devices such as cellphones, PDAs and MP3 players,the new KMR series switches measure only 4.6 x 2.8mm and standonly 1.9mm off the PCB.
These four-terminal tacts also feature aground terminal to ensure EMC is maintained.
Sharp, positivetactile feedback is achieved through the use of 0.2-0.3mm travelmetal domes, and actuation force can be specified as 1, 2, 3 or4N.
Ergonomic styling and high reliability up to 200,000operations are other key attributes.
KMR tact switches arecompatible with lead free soldering processes.
In order tooptimise efficiency, the switches are delivered on 7000 piecereels, reducing the number of times reels must be changed.
Otherspecifications of these normally open SPST switches include:contact resistance less than 100mohm; insulation resistancegreater than 1Gohm; and bounce of less than 1ms.
The silvercontact version is rated for 1VA, with maximum voltage of 50V DCor current of 50mA.
The gold contact version is rated 0.2VA, withmaximum voltage of 50V DC or current of 10mA.
