Three Switches, One Less Headache – Simplify Your Next Layout

              Kingtronics International Company — Inspired by Innovation 

 One Force, Multiple Footprints – Smarter Tact Switch Selection Starts Here

If you're designing PCBs for consumer electronics, IoT devices, or compact industrial controls, you’ve likely asked yourself this before:

“Which tactile switch model fits best—and do I need to test each one from scratch?”

The truth is, tact switch selection can be surprisingly time-consuming. With dozens of options that vary by footprint, actuation force, and electrical specs, a small component often ends up creating a big bottleneck in your layout process.

That’s why the Kingtronics SMD Tact Switch Series offers a smarter approach:
Three footprint options. One unified spec. Zero layout friction.

 Same Electrical Performance – No Revalidation Needed

All three switches in the series share the exact same core parameters:

  • Operating rating: 50mA / 12V DC

  • Withstand voltage: 250V AC

  • Insulation resistance: ≥100MΩ

  • Contact resistance: ≤50mΩ

  • Actuation force: 1.6 ± 0.5N

So whether you’re using a 2.0×4.0mm layout or a 3.5×6.0mm form, you can skip the revalidation and move forward with confidence.

Multiple Footprints – Built for Flexible PCB Designs

Here’s what you’re working with:

Choose the one that fits your mechanical design best—no electrical tradeoffs, no need to adjust tactile response, and no spec surprises during testing.

SMT-Ready for Modern Production

Every model is surface-mount compatible and reflow-process friendly. That means you can integrate them directly into your automated line without extra tooling or through-hole complexity.

Final Word: Keep It Simple

Why complicate your layout with mismatched specs and varied part behaviors?

With Kingtronics’ unified-spec SMD tact switch series, you only need to validate once—then choose the right footprint for every design.
