Overview

The TS40-66-38-R-260-SMT-TR is a tactile switch from Same Sky (formerly CUI Devices) featuring a 6mm x 6mm surface mount footprint with a 3.8mm actuator height. This SPST-NO switch provides a momentary Off-Mom function and is rated for up to 50mA at 12VDC. It is designed for high-density PCB layouts requiring reliable user input in a compact vertical orientation.

Why Choose This Part

This switch offers a high actuation force of 260gf, providing clear tactile feedback and reducing the risk of accidental presses. Its standard 6mm square footprint and gull-wing leads ensure compatibility with common pick-and-place assembly processes and reliable solder joints.

Applications

User Interface Controls
Ideal for menu navigation buttons and selection toggles in consumer and industrial electronics.
Reset and Calibration
Used as a PCB-mounted reset switch or calibration trigger for embedded systems.
Device Activation
Provides a tactile power or start button for hand-held portable devices.
