KKG MK-12D13: Vertical 3-Pin PCB Mount Slide Switch

Arduino Uno R3 Slide Switch's Product Introduction

The KKG MK-12D13 is a fundamental and highly reliable electrical slide switch, engineered for durability and ease of use in both prototyping and mass production. Its robust through-hole design provides superior mechanical strength compared to a delicate smd slide switch, ensuring a secure and lasting connection to the circuit board. The SPDT (Single Pole, Double Throw) configuration of this slide switch 3 pin component allows it to be used not just for power, but also for toggling a signal between two different paths. The tactile actuator provides clear feedback, making it a user-friendly choice for any project requiring dependable, manual circuit control.

Radial ProDI Slide Switch's Product Operating Principle

Through-Hole Stability: The switch's pins are inserted through holes in a PCB and soldered on the opposite side, providing a strong mechanical anchor that resists physical stress.
Circuit Redirection: Sliding the actuator moves an internal contact, connecting the center (common) pin to one of the two outer pins, thereby redirecting the electrical path.
Mechanical Actuation: The top-mounted actuator provides a simple, physical interface for the user to manually change the state of the switch between its two distinct positions.

Basic Fun Tetris Mini Slide Switch's Product Functions

Power Switching: Functions as a reliable main power switch for low-current, battery-operated devices, connecting or disconnecting the power source.
Signal Path Selection: Allows a single input signal to be routed to one of two different destinations, such as switching an audio signal between a speaker and a headphone amplifier.
Mode Selection: Enables a user to physically switch a device between two distinct operational modes, such as selecting a function on a piece of test equipment.
Prototyping and DIY: The standard pin spacing makes it ideal for use on breadboards for developing and testing new electronic circuits, especially with Arduino and other microcontrollers.

Educational Electronics: Used as a primary user input or power switch on popular educational development boards like the Arduino Uno R3 for controlling simple circuits.

Audio Peripherals: Serves as a ground-lift or pad switch on professional audio equipment, such as the Radial ProDI direct box, to eliminate hum.

Consumer Gadgets: Integrated as the main power switch on a wide variety of simple consumer electronics, for instance, handheld electronic games like the Basic Fun Tetris Mini.

Q1: Is KKG Electronics the actual manufacturer of its components?

A: Yes, we are. KKG Electronics is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) with a 15-year history of designing and producing electronic components. When you work with us, you are engaging directly with the factory that makes your tact switches, micro switches, connectors, and jacks. This ensures direct communication, production oversight, and factory-direct pricing.

Q2: What is the process for getting a price quote and samples?

A: To receive a fast and accurate quotation, please share the technical requirements for the component you need, including specifications and its end-application. For custom parts, an AI format artwork or technical drawing is best. We will review your request and are happy to provide free samples to validate fit and function in your design.

Q3: How quickly can I expect to receive a quotation?

A: Our team is committed to a swift response. After you provide the necessary product details, we aim to deliver a comprehensive quotation within 24 business hours.

Q4: What quality control measures do you have in place?

A: Our quality assurance is built on a zero-defect principle. Every single component manufactured at KKG, from switches to connectors, undergoes rigorous 100% testing for both electrical performance and mechanical durability before it is approved for delivery, ensuring it meets our high standards.

Q5: How are components packaged to ensure they arrive safely?

A: We use multi-layer protective packaging for all shipments. Components are placed in anti-static bags or on tape-and-reel (ideal for automated assembly), cushioned with protective film, and sealed in reinforced inner boxes and durable outer cartons for maximum protection.
