Micro rotary DIP switches for space-constrained designs

04-03-2021 | CUI Devices | Connectors, Switches & EMECH

CUI Devices’ Switches Group has added micro rotary actuator types to its DIP switches product line. Housed in compact 7.2mm x 7.2mm x 2.9mm packages, the RDS-7229 series features 4, 10, or 16 positions, a 5.08mm pitch, and surface-mount or through-hole mounting styles. Due to their compact footprints and IP67 ratings, these rotary DIP switches are excellent for various space-constrained industrial, commercial, or telecommunication applications where moisture and environmental contaminants are significant concerns.

To satisfy a mixture of design demands, the rotary DIP switch models provide multiple termination types, including gull-wing, angled gull wing, and J-hook gull-wing, as well as PC pin and crimped PC pin. The models also provide raised or flat actuator levels with arrow, cross, or slotted actuator styles. Carrying operating temperature ranges from -40C to 85C, the switches hold 50VDC switching/non-switching rated voltages and 100mA switching/non-switching rated currents.
