Compact, long-lifetime, double-action switch series with integrated actuator

In stock with Digi-Key, C&K Components' KXT2 series double-action, top-actuated switches feature an ultra-miniature 3.9mm x 3mm x 1.05mm footprint, an integrated actuator with a large 1.2mm diameter surface area, and extended 100,000 cycle lifespans. They are ideal for use in next-generation, ultra-compact electronics including wearable electronics, mobile phones, hearing aids, portable electronics, action (such as GoPro) and surveillance cameras, and personal healthcare monitoring systems. The series also offers two actuation forces, each with their own distinctive and stabile tactile feeling, which helps users differentiate between the first and second actions. The switches feature a dual-action single-pull, double-throw, normally open (SPDT NO) contact arrangement and G-type SMT terminations designed to take up minimal board space (4.4mm x 3.1mm). Push-force one features a 100 ±40gf operating force and 0.1mm ±0.05mm travel; push-force two features a 200 ±50gf operating force and 0.2mm +0.1/-0.05mm travel. Maximum voltage for the series momentary action switches is 12VDC and maximum current is 50mA. Insulation resistance at 500VDC is 100Mohm, contact resistance is <500mohm, and bounce time for the series is less than 10ms. Operating temperature for the series spans -40C to 85C.
