A tactile switch, specifically an SMT (Surface Mount Technology) type, features a compact outline of 5.2mm x 5.2mm, making it ideal for applications requiring a small footprint. This switch is designed with a flush actuator, resembling the feel of a dome switch, providing a tactile feedback when pressed. One of its notable attributes is the actuator height off the PCB, which is available as an option at 0.85mm, allowing for versatile integration into various electronic devices.

This tactile switch serves as a direct replacement for several popular models, including C&K’s PTS525SK08SMTR-2 LFS, PTS525SM08, and PTS525SM08SMTR LFS, as well as APEM switches such as ATM523VTR, ATMG524VTR, ATMG523VTR, and ATM524VTR. Additionally, it can be used as an alternative to CIT Relay and Switch models including CS1204F160, CS1214GF160, CS1204F160, and CS1214GF260.

Its design ensures reliability and durability, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications including consumer electronics, industrial controls, automotive interfaces, and more. The SMT packaging facilitates easy assembly and integration, making this tactile switch an excellent choice for engineers seeking a high-quality, space-saving component.
