uxcell 10 Pcs Black DIP Switch 4 Position 2.54mm Pitch for PCB

Description

Product Overview

The uxcell 10‑piece black DIP switch set is engineered for precision and durability, offering four independent positions that can be easily toggled on a standard 2.54 mm pitch board. Each switch combines a robust metal contact with a high‑impact plastic housing, delivering a reliable 25 mA current rating at 24 V operating voltage. The compact 8‑pin configuration (2 rows of 4 pins) fits seamlessly into both prototype breadboards and production printed circuit boards, providing a clean, low‑profile solution for circuit customization. With a contact resistance of just 50 mΩ and an insulation resistance of 500 MΩ, the switches ensure minimal signal loss and excellent isolation, making them suitable for a wide range of electronic applications, from hobbyist projects to professional equipment. The package includes ten identical switches, allowing designers to stock up for multiple builds or replace units without delay.

Usage

These DIP switches are ideal for developers, engineers, and makers who need a simple, reliable method to configure hardware settings. Common use cases include setting address lines on microcontroller boards, selecting operating modes on development kits, and configuring power‑up states for embedded systems. Their 2.54 mm pitch aligns perfectly with standard breadboard rows, enabling quick prototyping without soldering, while the sturdy metal contacts ensure long‑term stability when soldered onto a PCB. Whether you are building a robotics controller, a custom sensor interface, or a hobbyist audio amplifier, the uxcell DIP switches provide a versatile, low‑cost solution for on‑the‑fly adjustments and permanent configuration settings.

FAQ

What is the maximum current each switch can handle?

Each DIP switch is rated for a maximum continuous current of 25 mA at an operating voltage of 24 V, which is suitable for most low‑power digital and analog applications.

Can these switches be used on a solderless breadboard?

Yes, the 2.54 mm pitch matches the standard spacing of solderless breadboards, allowing you to insert the switches directly for rapid prototyping without soldering.

Are the switches compatible with both 5 V and 3.3 V logic levels?

Absolutely. The switches operate reliably across a wide voltage range, making them compatible with common logic levels such as 5 V, 3.3 V, and even up to 24 V for specialized applications.

What material are the contacts made from?

The contacts are constructed from a high‑conductivity metal alloy that provides excellent durability and low resistance, while the housing is made from a sturdy, impact‑resistant plastic.

Is there a warranty or guarantee for these switches?

uxcell offers a standard warranty covering manufacturing defects, and their customer service team is ready to assist with any issues or replacement requests.
