Spdt momentary tactile switch help needed
Spdt momentary tactile switches
Some are now broken Could anybody identify a source for a replacement from the attached photo? Not really vintage (2007) but I would like to keep this alive if at all possible as it's a great piece of kit |

Re: Spdt momentary tactile switch help needed
are they definitely SPDT? I've never seen any like that in a 6x6 tact switch

Re: Spdt momentary tactile switch help needed
Any of the major component suppliers - CPC, RS etc - look for Tactile Switches.
Be careful, the height is important - some places define height to be total including the button, others list the button height seperately. I am assuming you think they are SPDT because they have 4 mounting legs - they are more likely SPST as two legs are electrically paralleled for each contact. |
