C&K has expanded its tactile switch product family to comprise a long-life sub-miniature version. The PTS526 Series sub-miniature tactile switch expands upon the PTS526 switch series, with a 100% increase in the electrical life cycle from 500,000 to 1,000,000 actuations. The series meets the increasing demand for high quality and competitively priced switch solutions for high-volume consumer manufacturing.
The sub-miniature series switch has a 5.2mm x 5.2mm footprint and a customisable thickness of 0.8mm up to 2mm. With PCB space at a premium in consumer electronics devices, the ultra-compact switch allows customers to add more functionality to a design or develop smaller end-products – all with no sacrifice to performance or reliability.
With a large actuation surface for simpler integration, the series is ideal for applications including home automation, IoT devices and e-cigarettes, and control systems for items such as drones, e-bikes and robot vacuum cleaners.
“C&K has improved the PTS526 to meet the needs of many commercial applications, which require higher performance levels. The PTS526 Series is being offered with economical pricing to provide our customers with the best blend of performance and price,” comments Daisy Liu, Global Product Manager, Tactile Switches at C&K.
