NKK Switches Subminiature Slide AS22BB

The AS series consists of subminiature slide switches designed for low-voltage, low-current logic-level applications. The switches feature a subminiature footprint, 0.100" x 0.100" (2.54mm x 2.54mm) terminal spacing conforming to standard PCB grid patterns, and an award-winning STC contact mechanism providing smooth detent actuation and enhanced reliability. The actuator is made of glass fiber reinforced polyamide, with an antistatic upper housing of carbon blended polyacetal. Contact materials include phosphor bronze with gold plating and brass with gold plating. The switches have a nominal operating force of 2.55N, 0.098" (2.5mm) total travel, and operate within a temperature range of -30°C to +85°C. They are rated for 50,000 electrical and mechanical operations, with contact resistance not exceeding 50 milliohms and insulation resistance at least 500 megohms at 500V DC. The switches are suitable for wave or manual soldering and are not UL or CSA certified.
