7*7mm Bi-color SMD Tact Switch

Mar 28, 2023

SMD tact switches are slim, low-profile, surface mountable switches typically used in a wide range of electronic devices. These switches can be found in mobile phones, computers, video game controllers, medical devices, and many other applications.

Bi-color SMD tact switches are a type of SMD tact switch that has two different colored LEDs integrated into the switch. The bi-color LED can emit two different colors of light, typically red and green, and can be used to indicate different states or functions of the device.

The 7*7mm bi-color SMD tact switch is a popular size of SMD tact switch that is commonly found in the electronics industry. The switch has a compact design and a small footprint, making it an ideal choice for applications where space is limited.

The switch has a contact rating of 50mA @ 12V DC, making it suitable for low-power applications. The actuation force of the switch is 160 ± 50g, and the operating temperature range is -40°C to +85°C.

The bi-color LED integrated into the switch allows for a more efficient use of space on the PCB. By combining the switch and LED into one component, designers can save space and reduce the number of components required on the board.

There are many advantages to using bi-color SMD tact switches in electronic devices. One of the primary benefits is the ability to use the LED to provide feedback to the user. The bi-color LED can be programmed to emit different colors of light depending on the state or function of the device, making it easier for users to understand how the device is functioning.

Another benefit of using bi-color SMD tact switches is the reduced number of components required on the board. By integrating the switch and LED into one component, designers can reduce the overall size and complexity of the PCB, which can help to reduce costs.

Overall, the 7*7mm bi-color SMD tact switch is a versatile and reliable component that can be used in a wide range of electronic devices. With its small footprint, low actuation force, and bi-color LED, this switch is an excellent choice for applications where space is at a premium and user feedback is required.
