knitter-switch - pushbutton switches feature a footprint of 7 x 3mm with a long travel of 1.6mm

The SSP 129T is a large-travel alternative to existing tactile switches having usually a travel of only 0.25mm and fits the pcb layout of the knitter-switch TSS309/TSS310 series tactile switches. With a footprint of just 7mm x 3mm and a long travel of 1.6mm, the new switch is a surface mountable device supplied in T/R packing for automatic pick and place systems.

Available with normally open and momentary switching functions, the SSP 129T provides a lifetime of 100,000 cycles and incorporates a gold plated contact plate for the reliable switching of smaller currents
