LED Right-angled Tact Switch

The functionality of Right Angle Illuminated Tact Switch is relatively simple. When the user presses the switch, the contact mechanism inside the switch makes electrical contact, allowing current to flow through the circuit. The LED connected to the switch is illuminated when the circuit is activated, indicating the status of the switch.

Right Angle Led Tact Switches can be designed to have a latching or momentary action. In a latching switch, pressing the button will make the connection until it is pressed again to break the connection. In a momentary switch, the connection is only made while the button is pressed and will break when the button is released.

These Mini Tact Switches With Led are designed to be compact, allowing for efficient use of space on the PCB. Their right-angle configuration optimizes space utilization, making them suitable for applications with spatial constraints. Additionally, their small footprint contributes to the overall miniaturization of electronic devices.

This mini right angle LED tact switch, equipped with a clear cap, is a compact, high-precision electronic component tailored for space-constrained devices—ideal for small smart home accessories, portable medical monitors, wearable electronics, and miniaturized industrial control modules, where subtle status indication and space-saving installation are critical.

Functionally, the switch integrates a low-power LED indicator (available in red, green, or blue) with a rated voltage of 3.3V/5V and current of 5-10mA—ideal for battery-powered devices, as it minimizes energy consumption. When pressed, the LED illuminates instantly to signal “active” status, with the clear cap enhancing light visibility even in dim environments (e.g., night-use portable devices). As a tactile switch, it offers a crisp feedback: the trigger force is calibrated to 150-300g, and the stroke length is 0.2-0.4mm, ensuring users feel a distinct “click” without excessive pressing force—suitable for frequent operations (e.g., smart speaker control buttons). The internal silver-plated copper contacts ensure stable conductivity, with a contact resistance ≤50mΩ and insulation resistance ≥100MΩ, preventing signal loss or short circuits.
