Dip Switch 6 Way
This is a high-quality 6-position (6P) Dual In-line Package (DIP) switch, an essential component for configuring electronic circuits. Designed to be mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB), this switch provides a simple and reliable way to modify the behavior of a device or set its operating mode. It features six individual single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) slide switches arranged in a compact, through-hole package. This component serves as a durable alternative to jumper blocks, allowing for easy manual configuration of hardware settings, address selection, or enabling and disabling specific functions on a circuit board without the need for software.
Features
- Number of Positions: 6 individual slide switches.
- Switch Type: Slide actuator for clear on/off status.
- Mounting Style: Through-hole for secure mounting on PCBs and breadboards.
- Compact Design: Dual In-line Package saves board space.
- High Reliability: Provides 2,000 electrical operations per switch.
- Clear Identification: Switches are numbered 1 through 6 for easy identification.
- Low Contact Resistance: Ensures a reliable connection when switched.
