D6 Key Switch
The D6 is a single-pole, momentary
action, normally open keyswitch specially
designed for digital electronic controls.
Its small size enables keyboard design
with minimum center spacing of
12.7 mm (0.500).
The commoned terminals offer the
possibility of X, Y coding on just a single
sided printed circuit board.
A total travel of 0.8 mm (0.0315) combi-
ned with a snap effect provides the user
with a smooth, gentle, yet positive tactile
feedback.
Built-in buttons (square or round) are
available in several colors and have
been designed to fit directly on front
panels.
The D6 version with plunger 3.3
3.3 mm (0.130
0.130) can accept any
standard or customer-designed
button.
Flat D6
can be actuated with customer
designed buttons or behind a membrane.
A version exists for high temperature,
resisting wave soldering in severe
conditions. This type is offered only in
black.
