Illuminated LED Tactile Switch

The Illuminated LED right angle Tact Switch is a compact yet powerful electrical component that combines the space - saving benefits of a right - angle design, the visual feedback of LED illumination, and the tactile response essential for precise operation, all within a diminutive form factor.

As the name implies, the most striking feature of this switch is its miniature size. Despite its small dimensions, it retains the characteristic right - angle pin configuration. The pins, bent at a 90 - degree angle, are optimized to be even more slender and closely spaced, allowing for installation in the most space - constrained areas of printed circuit boards (PCBs). This makes it an ideal choice for ultra - compact electronics where every millimeter of space counts.

The integrated LED lighting element, though small, is highly efficient. It can emit a bright and clear light in various colors, such as red, green, blue, or white. The switch body is typically crafted from high - strength, lightweight plastics, ensuring durability while keeping the overall size and weight to a minimum. The tactile mechanism inside is meticulously engineered. Even with its small size, it provides a distinct and satisfying “click” when pressed, giving users clear feedback that the switch has been actuated.

The working principle of the mini LED right angle Tact Switch is similar to its larger counterparts but optimized for its compact design. When the switch is pressed, the internal tactile mechanism closes the electrical contacts, completing the circuit and allowing current to flow. Simultaneously, the LED lights up, indicating that the switch is in the active state.

Advanced versions of these switches may offer programmable LED functions. For example, the LED can be set to blink at different frequencies or change colors to convey various status messages. This functionality is achieved through sophisticated internal circuitry that can be customized according to the specific requirements of the application.
