Mini 3 Pin Right Angle Slide Switch

The "Mini 3 Pin Right Angle Slide Switch" is a compact, reliable switch designed for use in electronic devices where space constraints and efficient layout are critical. This switch features a right-angle design, allowing it to be mounted horizontally onto a printed circuit board (PCB), which is especially useful for applications requiring edge or side access to the switch in compact assemblies. Its 3-pin configuration and small size make it an ideal choice for devices that require precise control in tight spaces, such as portable electronics, small appliances, and various consumer gadgets.

With 3 pins, this slide switch supports either single-pole, single-throw (SPST) or single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) functionality, depending on how it’s wired. In SPST configuration, the switch toggles between ON and OFF states, while in SPDT setups, it can alternate between two circuits. This versatility makes the switch suitable for a wide variety of electronic applications, such as mode switching, power control, and signal routing.

The sliding mechanism of this switch is straightforward and durable. Users can easily move the actuator between two distinct positions, with a smooth action that provides tactile feedback, confirming when the switch has been successfully engaged. This mechanical feedback is important in many applications where precise control is necessary, ensuring that the user knows when the switch is in the correct position.

The right-angle design allows the switch to sit parallel to the PCB, making it accessible from the side, which is useful in devices where vertical space is limited but horizontal space is more available. This makes it an ideal component for integration in devices where the switch must be easily accessible without taking up additional space inside the enclosure.

Mini 3 Pin Right Angle Slide Switch is a slide switch has right angle three terminal, it comes in 19.6*6.6*6.4mm, it has two position and a variety of actuators and terminations choices.

This switch is widely used in various applications, such as toys, DIY electronics projects, audio devices, and other small gadgets. Its miniature form factor makes it ideal for devices where larger switches are impractical, and it fits seamlessly into tight spaces on PCBs without sacrificing performance. Additionally, its ease of installation and compatibility with standard PCB layouts make it a popular choice among engineers and manufacturers.
