The **KSBS-34-R** is a specific electronic component typically identified as a **tactile switch** or a **push-button switch**, often used in automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial control interfaces. Below is a detailed breakdown of its electronic specifications and characteristics. ### 1. General Specifications The KSBS-34-R belongs to the category of surface-mount or through-hole miniature switches designed for low-power signal switching. | Feature | Specification (Typical) | | :--- | :--- | | **Type** | Tactile Switch / Push Button | | **Contact Arrangement** | SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) | | **Contact Type** | Normally Open (NO) | | **Termination Style** | Right Angle / Surface Mount / PC Pin | | **Operating Force** | ~1.6N to 2.5N (Model dependent) | | **Travel Distance** | ~0.25mm to 0.45mm | --- ### 2. Electrical Characteristics These parts are designed for low-voltage logic circuits rather than high-power switching. * **Current Rating:** Typically 50mA. * **Voltage Rating:** 12V DC to 24V DC. * **Contact Resistance:** Usually < 100mΩ (initial). * **Insulation Resistance:** > 100MΩ at 100V DC. * **Dielectric Strength:** 250V AC for 1 minute. --- ### 3. Mechanical & Physical Properties The "R" in the part number often indicates a **Right Angle** orientation or **RoHS** compliance. * **Actuator Material:** Thermoplastic or Silicon (depending on the specific series). * **Sealing:** Often rated IP40 or IP67 (if it is a sealed version for harsh environments). * **Lifecycle:** Rated for 50,000 to 100,000 cycles. * **Operating Temperature:** -40°C to +85°C. --- ### 4. Typical Applications The KSBS-34-R is commonly found in: 1. **Automotive:** Dashboard buttons, steering wheel controls, or key fobs. 2. **Consumer Electronics:** Power buttons on laptops, volume rockers, or microwave panels. 3. **Industrial:** Reset switches on PCBs or interface buttons on handheld scanners. ### 5. Schematic Representation The internal circuit is simple: it bridges two pins when the actuator is depressed. ```text [ Terminal A ] | -------/ ------- (Switch Contact) | [ Terminal B ] ```
