Product Description

8x8mm SelfUnlock Push Tactile Power Micro Switch 6Pin

Momentary DPDT Push Button Switch for PCB Projects

The 8x8mm SelfUnlock Push Tactile Power Micro Switch is a compact 6pin momentary switch designed for applications requiring temporary circuit activation. Unlike latching switches that lock into position, this selfunlock (momentary) switch only maintains contact while pressed release to return to the OFF state. It is ideal for Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller projects requiring momentary trigger or reset functions.

Features selfunlock (momentary) mechanism circuit is active only while pressed, releases automatically when released
6-pin DPDT configuration provides dual switching capability for two independent circuits
Maximum rating: DC30V 0.1A - verify load requirements before use

= Applications =

  • Reset buttons and triggers for microcontrollers
  • Signal input and pulse generation
  • PCB-mounted momentary switches
  • Doorbells and call buttons
  • Industrial control panels
  • DIY electronics and prototyping
  • Keyboard and input devices

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 pressed, common connects to one side; when released, it disconnects
Use a multimeter to verify pin orientation before soldering

How It Works

  1. *Resting State (OFF)* - Switch is in default, open position
  2. *Press Down* - Contacts close, circuit activates
  3. *Release Button* - Contacts open automatically, circuit deactivates
The spring-loaded mechanism returns the switch to its default state immediately upon release
This makes it perfect for reset buttons, key inputs, and trigger signals

Why Choose This Switch?

Momentary action for pulse and trigger applications
DPDT switching handles two independent circuits

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 8x8mm SelfUnlock Push Switch provides reliable momentary control in a compact, easyto-install package. Perfect for reset buttons, triggers, and signal input applications in microcontroller projects and electronic devices.
