Slide Switch 3 Pin

A slide switch, also known as a slider switch, is a common type of electronic switch that operates when a user slides a lever or toggle to one of two or more positions. It is used to control the flow of current in a circuit. A 3-pin slide switch is the most common type of slide switch found on electronic devices. It has three pins, two of which are connected to the circuit and one that is connected to the slider.

The three pins of a 3-pin slide switch are the common (C), the normally open (NO), and the normally closed (NC) contacts. The common contact is where the slider is connected when the switch is in the center position. In other words, the common contact is the point of connection between the two other pins. The normally open contact is open when the switch is in the center position, but it is closed when the switch is slid to one side. The normally closed contact is closed when the switch is in the center position, but it is open when the switch is slid to one side.

The 3-pin slide switch is designed to fit into a standard 0.1 inch spacing between PCB pads. It is often used in applications where switching between two circuits is desired, such as turning on or off a device, selecting between different input sources, or choosing different output modes.

The slide switch is a very reliable and durable type of switch due to its simple design and the small number of moving parts. However, like all electronic components, it can wear out over time, especially if it is exposed to harsh environments or subjected to frequent use. It is therefore important to choose a slide switch that is of good quality and from a reputable manufacturer. Some popular brands of 3-pin slide switches include C&K Components, Eaton, and NKK Switches.

In summary, a 3-pin slide switch is a simple and reliable type of electronic switch that is commonly used in a variety of electronic devices. It is cost-effective, easy to use, and requires little maintenance.
