Mini SPDT PCB Slide Switch — Compact 2-Position Interrupt Toggle for Tight PCB Layouts

When you're designing a compact circuit board and need a reliable, low-profile way to interrupt or redirect a signal, a bulky toggle switch simply won't fit. This mini SPDT PCB slide switch is built for electronics hobbyists, makers, and engineers who need a space-saving 2-position interrupt switch that drops straight into a standard PCB footprint without rework.

Each switch features a 6-pin through-hole configuration in an SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) dual-gang layout, available in two actuator heights — 5mm (≈3/16") and 6mm (≈1/4") — to suit different enclosure clearance requirements. Packs are available in quantities of 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 pieces, making it easy to stock up for prototyping or small production runs.

Typical use cases include DIY Arduino and Raspberry Pi projects requiring on-board mode selection, micro PCB interrupt switches in handheld devices, and compact slide toggle switches in consumer electronics repair and modification work.

🔌 Compatibility: Designed for through-hole PCB mounting. Typically compatible with 2.54mm (0.1") or 2.0mm pitch footprints — verify against your board layout before ordering.
⚠️ Note: Select your height (5mm or 6mm) based on your enclosure clearance. If you are unsure of pin pitch compatibility, contact us to confirm before placing a bulk order.

✅ Key Features of These Mini SPDT PCB Slide Switches

  • 📐 Low-Profile Actuator Heights — Available in 5mm (≈3/16") and 6mm (≈1/4") to fit tight enclosures and compact PCB slide switch applications without clearance conflicts.
  • 🔀 SPDT Dual-Gang 6-Pin Layout — Switches two signal lines simultaneously with a single actuator stroke, ideal for 2-position interrupt toggle circuits and mode-select applications.
  • 🛠️ Through-Hole PCB Mount Design — Pins insert directly into standard PCB footprint holes for straightforward hand-soldering; no SMD reflow equipment required.
  • 📦 Flexible Pack Quantities — Choose from 10 to 200 pieces per order, so you can grab a small batch for prototyping or stock up for a production run without overpaying.
  • ⚡ Positive Detent Action — The actuator clicks firmly into each of the two positions, reducing the risk of accidental mid-position contact in micro PCB interrupt switch designs.
  • 🔁 Consistent Switching Cycle Life — Rated for a high number of actuation cycles typical of this switch class, making it suitable for repeated use in test fixtures, development boards, and DIY electronics toggle switch builds.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose between the 5mm and 6mm height variants?

The height dimension refers to the actuator travel height above the PCB surface. Choose 5mm when clearance inside your enclosure is tight, and 6mm when you need a slightly taller actuator for easier finger or tool actuation. Always verify your PCB footprint and enclosure cutout dimensions before ordering. As a reference: 5mm ≈ 3/16" and 6mm ≈ 1/4".

What current and voltage ratings does this slide switch support?

Micro PCB slide switches of this type typically support ratings in the range of 0.3A–0.5A at 12V DC. For higher-current applications, a larger toggle or rocker switch is generally recommended. Contact us to confirm the exact rating for your specific project requirements.

Can this switch be used outdoors or in humid environments?

This switch is designed for PCB-mount indoor electronics use in dry conditions. It is not rated for outdoor or high-humidity environments. For outdoor or moisture-exposed applications, a sealed or IP-rated switch is generally recommended.

What does SPDT mean and how does the 6-pin layout work?

SPDT stands for Single Pole Double Throw. The 6-pin configuration typically mirrors two SPDT circuits in parallel (dual-gang), allowing simultaneous switching of two signal lines with one actuator movement. This is common in compact PCB designs where two circuits need to be toggled together — for example, switching both power and ground rails simultaneously.

How do I solder this switch onto a PCB?

This is a through-hole PCB mount switch. Insert the pins into the matching footprint holes on your PCB and solder from the underside. Standard soldering iron temperatures (typically 300–350°C / 572–662°F) are suitable. Avoid prolonged heat exposure to prevent damage to the actuator mechanism. Flux-core solder is generally recommended for clean joints.

What pack size should I order for prototyping vs. production?

For prototyping and testing, the 10-pack or 20-pack is generally sufficient to validate your design. For small production runs or stocking a workshop, the 50-pack or 100-pack offers better per-unit value. The 200-pack is best suited for larger production batches or resellers who need consistent supply.

Is the pin pitch standard and compatible with common PCB footprints?

Micro slide switches of this style typically use a 2.54mm (0.1") or 2.0mm pin pitch. Verify the exact pitch against your PCB footprint or datasheet before ordering. Contact us to confirm compatibility with your specific board layout — we're happy to provide dimensional drawings on request.
