KAE Series Low Profile DIP Switch

KAE Series Low Profile DIP Switch

The KAE Series switch is a low profile DIP switch measuring 3.05mm x 6.3mm. The actuator on this DIP switch is available as either recessed or extended and offers up to 12 positions, which dictates the length of the switch. It features an optional top seal designed to withstand wave soldering and board washing. The KAE Series low profile DIP switches are available with both surface mount (gull wing) and through hole (straight or splayed) terminals. You can also choose between tape and reel or tube packaging. These DIP switches operate in temperatures ranging from -20 to 85°C, making them good for applications in harsh environments. The initial electrical rating for these DIP switches, or switch rating, is 25mA of 24VDC, and the carry current, or steady-state current rating is 100mA of 50VDC. Markets for the KAE series DIP switches include:

  • Garage door openers
  • Test and instrumentation
  • Telecommunications
  • Controller applications
