NKK Switches Subminiature Slide AS23AB

The AS23AB is a double-pole, double-throw subminiature slide switch designed for low-voltage, low-current logic-level circuits. It features a nonshorting (break-before-make) contact timing with a total travel of 2.5mm and a nominal operating force of 2.55N. The switch has a 100mil x 100mil terminal spacing, right-angle through-hole terminals, and includes a support bracket for ESD protection. Its actuator is glass fiber reinforced polyamide, contacts are phosphor bronze with gold plating, and housings are carbon-blended polyacetal and glass fiber reinforced polyamide. Electrical life and mechanical life are each rated for a minimum of 50,000 operations. The operating temperature range is -30°C to +85°C. Contact resistance is 50 milliohms maximum, insulation resistance is 500 megohms minimum at 500V DC, and dielectric strength is 500V AC for one minute. The switch is not UL or CSA certified.
