EMAIL

The design of the 12*12mm illuminated tact button is simple and efficient. The switch is composed of several key components, including the base, the plunger, and the contacts. The base of the button is made of a high-quality plastic material that is durable and robust. The plunger is located above the base and is designed to be pressed down when the button is activated. Finally, the contacts are the key electrical components that are responsible for conducting the electrical signal from the switch to the connected device.

Illumination

One of the key features of the 12*12mm illuminated tact button is the LED illumination. The LED is integrated into the plunger of the switch, and it is designed to provide bright and even illumination when the switch is activated. The LED is powered by a low voltage supply, and it has a long lifespan of around 50,000 hours.

Actuation Force

The actuation force of the 12*12mm illuminated tact button is a key aspect that determines the ease of use of the switch. The button is designed to require a fairly low actuation force of around 160g. This makes it easy to press the button and activate the switch, which is particularly useful in industrial settings where workers may be wearing gloves or other types of protective equipment.

Durability

Durability is an important aspect of any switch, and the 12*12mm illuminated tact button is no exception. The switch is designed to be highly durable and robust, with a lifespan of around 500,000 cycles. This makes it ideal for use in applications that require frequent and intensive use.

The 12*12mm illuminated tact button is a compact and highly functional electronic component. Measuring just 12 millimeters by 12 millimeters, it is designed to fit into space - constrained applications while offering both tactile feedback and visual indication.


Physical Design
The button typically has a sturdy housing made from durable materials such as high - quality plastic. This housing protects the internal components and provides a stable base for mounting. The button cap, which is the part users interact with, is often made of a translucent or transparent material to allow the light from the internal illumination to pass through clearly. It can have a smooth or slightly textured surface for better grip and to prevent accidental presses.


Illumination Feature
An integrated light - emitting diode (LED) is at the core of the button's illumination system. The LED can emit various colors like red, green, blue, yellow, or white, depending on the design and application requirements. A light - diffusing mechanism is usually employed to ensure an even distribution of light across the button cap, creating a consistent and bright glow. This illumination serves multiple purposes, such as indicating the button's status (e.g., active or inactive, normal operation or error condition) or simply making the button more visible in low - light environments.
