C&K Develops Miniature Reed Detect Switch
C&K Components has developed a miniature surface-mount reed detect switch designed for long life and ease-of-use. Designated the RS Series, the detect switch is a miniature reed detect component with an electrical life of one million cycles.
“The RS Series switch features a magnetic reed sensor with an omnipolar magnetic orientation, allowing it to be operated with either pole of a magnet,” said David Webber, director of product management for C&K Components. “Due to this versatility and the miniature size of the device, the switch is being implemented in a wide range of detection applications, and is particularly ideal for those where space is at a premium.”
The 5mm magnetic reed switch features a footprint of 6.5mm x 2.3mm, and sits only 2.3mm off the PC board. The detect switch can be top or side actuated for increased flexibility.
The RS Series reed detect switch is specified for a variety of applications, including industrial sensing, factory automation equipment, limit sensing, security systems, and fan and motor controllers, as well as simple detection applications such as enclosure latches.
The RoHS-compliant detect switches are available with either gullwing or J-lead terminations, and can be supplied on pick-and-place compatible tape and reel packaging.
