DIP 6.2*6.2 Tact Switch

The DIP 6.2*6.2 Silicone Tact Switches' Structure

There are 5 parts of  a silicone Tact Switch:Terminal，Base, splinter，cover and button.Among them, the shrapnel is the core component of the Switch, which realizes the on-off of the circuit through the change of force of the metal shrapnel.

The Tact Switches'  Operating Principle

Tactile switch, is a kind of electronic components, used for circuit switching control. It is characterized by the use of conditions to meet the operating force to the switch operating direction to apply pressure, the switch function closed on; when the withdrawal of pressure, the switch is disconnected. The plug-in 6.2 * 6.2 light touch switch, refers to its size specifications for 6.2 mm by 6.2 mm, and the use of plug-in installation of light touch switch.

Role of silicone keys for 6.2 Tact switches

I. Operating comfort

Silicone keys have a soft touch and good elasticity, which can provide a better feel and a comfortable pressing experience. This makes the user feel more relaxed and comfortable when pressing the switch, enhancing the user experience.

2, durability

Silicone has good durability and abrasion resistance, and can withstand prolonged pressing and repeated use without being easily worn or deformed. This allows silicone keys to maintain their performance and appearance in long-term use, prolonging the service life of the light touch switch.

3, dustproof and waterproof performance

Silicone keys have good sealing performance, which can effectively prevent dust, moisture and other impurities from entering the inside of the switch. This is especially important for electronic equipment that requires dustproof and waterproof function, which can protect the internal circuit from damage and improve the reliability and stability of the equipment.

4, isolation and protection role

Silicone keys provide physical isolation between the switch and the outside environment, further preventing impurities or liquids from entering the switch interior. This isolation and protective effect helps keep the internal circuitry of the switch clean and dry, thus ensuring the normal operation of the switch.

5. Adaptability and compatibility

The material and characteristics of the silicone keypad enable it to adapt to different working environments and conditions. For example, in high or low temperature environments, silicone buttons can still maintain good elasticity and tactility to ensure the normal operation of the switch. In addition, silicone keypad also has good compatibility, can be used with a variety of electronic devices to meet different application requirements.
