Product Description
The MSS Mini Slide Switch is a compact, high-reliability selector designed for smart remote controls and other low‑power consumer electronics. It delivers crisp detent feedback, stable contact performance, and a low‑profile footprint that fits dense PCBs and ultra‑slim housings. Available in SPDT configurations (ON‑OFF or ON‑ON) with top or side actuation, MSS ensures intuitive user operation and long service life in everyday use.
Key features
- Miniature, low‑profile design for space‑constrained remotes
- Positive detents with smooth, reliable slide action
- SPDT circuit options: ON‑OFF or ON‑ON; DPDT available on request
- SMD or through‑hole terminations for flexible assembly
- Gold or silver contact plating for low contact resistance
- Long mechanical life for frequent switching
- RoHS and REACH compliant; halogen‑free options
Typical Applications
- Smart TV/streaming remotes
- Bluetooth/voice‑enabled controllers
- Set‑top box and media player remotes
- IoT handhelds, key fobs, wearables
- Portable audio and camera accessories
