NKK Switches JB: Miniature, illuminated tactile switches provide cap-style and color options

The JB illuminated subminiature tactile-switch series provides full-face illumination in red, green, or yellow LEDs with cap styles and colors including flat translucent, flat with lens and diffusers, or button-framed. The 10-mm switches have a rubber-seal construction, preventing contact contamination and allowing automated soldering and cleaning. Slanted terminals enable a spring-type action, allowing secure PCB mounting, preventing dislodging during wave soldering. The devices can perform a minimum of 5 million operations, and their terminal spacing conforms to a 2.54-mm PCB grid. The SPST switches have a momentary circuit and a 50-mA rating at a maximum 24V dc for standard-operating-force models and a 125-mA rating at a maximum 24V dc for high-operating-force models. Operating over a –25 to +70° temperature range, the JB illuminated tactile-switch series costs $1.53 (2500).
