Product Description

7x7mm SelfLocking Push Tactile Power Micro Switch 6Pin

Compact Latching DPDT Switch for PCB Projects

The 7x7mm SelfLocking Push Tactile Power Micro Switch is a miniature 6pin latching switch designed for reliable on/off power control in spaceconstrained electronic devices. Unlike momentary switches that only stay active while held, this switch mechanically locks into position press once to latch ON, press again to release OFF. It is ideal for compact Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller projects requiring stable, latching control in a small footprint.

Features selflocking (latching) mechanism press once to lock ON, press again to release OFF
6-pin DPDT configuration provides dual switching capability for two independent circuits
Maximum rating: DC30V 0.1A - verify load requirements before use

= Key Features =

SelfLocking Latching Mechanism Maintains ON/OFF state without continuous pressure. Press once to latch ON, press again to release OFF.

DPDT Switching Capability 6pin configuration allows control of two independent circuits with a single button.

UltraCompact 7x7mm Size Space-saving footprint ideal for miniature PCBs and compact electronic designs.

ThroughHole Mounting Standard DIP pins for secure PCB soldering and breadboard compatibility.

Reliable Construction - Metal contact and durable housing designed for 10,000 operational cycles.

= Applications =

  • Power on/off control for miniature electronic devices
  • Microcontroller projects (Arduino, Raspberry Pi, AVR)
  • PCB-mounted power switches in compact designs
  • Consumer electronics and small appliances
  • Wearable devices and portable electronics
  • DIY electronics and prototyping

Pin Configuration

The 6 pins are arranged in two rows of three, corresponding to two independent switches:

Switch 1Switch 2
Pin 1Pin 4
Pin 2 (Common)Pin 5 (Common)
Pin 3Pin 6

> Pin 2 and Pin 5 are the common terminals for each switch

When latched ON, common connects to one side; when OFF, it connects to the other
Use a multimeter to verify pin orientation before soldering

How It Works

  1. *Initial State (OFF)* - Switch is in default, open position
  2. *Press Once* - Switch latches ON, locking the circuit closed
  3. *Press Again* - Switch releases and returns to OFF position
The latching mechanism means the switch physically changes state and stays there until pressed again
This makes it perfect for power buttons that need to stay ON after being pressed

Why Choose This Switch?

Self-locking design remembers your last setting
DPDT switching handles two independent circuits
Compact 7x7mm size for tight spaces
Through-hole pins for easy PCB mounting
Durable construction rated for 10,000 cycles
Versatile for power control and signal switching

√ Works with 3.3V and 5V logic circuits

√ Simple on/off control for projects

√ Reliable latching mechanism

√ Replaces older momentary switches

Safety Precautions

Maximum rating: DC30V 0.1A - do not exceed
Do not exceed operating temperature range
Ensure correct pin orientation when soldering
Protect from moisture and dust
Verify load current before application
For high-current applications, use the switch to control a relay
The 6-pin design allows for SPDT or DPDT configuration depending on wiring

The 7x7mm SelfLocking Push Switch provides reliable latching control in an ultracompact, easytoinstall package. Perfect for power buttons, mode selection, and on/off control in miniature microcontroller projects and compact electronic devices.
