Switch Selection Guide Summary
Specifications:
- Switches are categorized by their voltage and current ratings, ranging from ultra-miniature to standard sizes.
- Voltage ratings include 28V AC/DC, 125V AC, and 250V AC.
- Current ratings vary from 0.4VA to 16A, depending on the switch type and application.
Switch Types:
- Ultra-miniature: Designed for low power applications, with ratings such as 0.4VA @ 28V AC/DC and 1.0mA @ 10mV AC/DC.
- Subminiature: Slightly larger than ultra-miniature, with ratings like 0.4VA @ 28V AC/DC and 0.1A @ 30V AC/DC.
- Miniature: Suitable for moderate power applications, with ratings up to 6A @ 125V AC.
- Standard: For higher power applications, with ratings up to 16A @ 125/250V AC.
Applications:
- Switches are used in various electronic devices, with specific types chosen based on power requirements and physical size constraints.
Key Considerations:
- Choose the switch based on the required voltage and current ratings for the application.
- Consider the physical size and mounting requirements of the switch in the design.
