A Tactile Switch, often referred to as a Tact Switch or Tactile Pushbutton, is a type of momentary switch that is typically used in electronic devices where a user interface is required. These switches are characterized by their small size, low profile, and tactile feedback when pressed, making them suitable for applications where a physical response to user input is desirable, such as keyboards, remote controls, and consumer electronics.
Tact switches consist of a plunger that, when pressed, makes contact with a conductive pad underneath. This completes the circuit momentarily, sending an electrical signal to the device. Once the pressure is released, the switch returns to its original position, breaking the circuit. They are available in various configurations, including surface-mount and through-hole types, and are designed to withstand multiple actuations over their operational lifespan.
We supply a range of high-quality tactile switches designed for durability, reliability, and consistent performance in electronic applications, ensuring responsive user interfaces and seamless operation of your devices.
