Overview

The TS40-66-70-R-260-SMT-TR is a 6.00mm x 6.00mm tactile switch designed for surface mount applications requiring a tactile user interface. This SPST, normally open switch features a 7.00mm tall red actuator and provides a momentary 'Off-Mom' function with a crisp 260gf actuation force. It is rated for low-power signal switching up to 12VDC at 50mA.

Why Choose This Part

The 7.00mm vertical height allows the actuator to clear taller adjacent components or interface with mechanical buttons on a chassis. Its gull-wing termination style ensures robust solder fillets for reliable surface mount assembly, while the 260gf rating provides high tactile resistance to prevent accidental triggers.

Applications

User Interface Input
Standard tactile feedback for control panels, navigation buttons, and parameter selection in consumer and industrial devices.
Reset or Power Buttons
Used as a PCB-mounted reset switch or power toggling input where a specific actuator height is needed to reach an enclosure cutout.
Testing and Debugging
Provides a reliable manual trigger for firmware state changes or hardware resets during prototype development.

Getting Started

Integrate this switch into a PCB design using a standard 6.00mm x 6.00mm footprint with gull-wing land patterns. Connect the SPST-NO pins across a microcontroller input pin and ground, utilizing an internal or external pull-up resistor for signal debouncing in software.
