C&K’s ET series are sealed subminiature toggle switches, often used in the medical and telecommunications industry in hand-held or instrumentation applications. Featuring a small footprint (to help save space on the PCB) and ESD protection, long-lasting ET switches also come with strong protection from solder and cleaning process contaminants.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Sealed against solder and cleaning process contaminants
• Compact size and small footprint save PCB space
• ESD protection available
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
• Hand-held telecommunications
• Instrumentation
• Medical equipment
