This Yellow Round Push Button Switch provides a reliable and space-saving power control solution for your electronic assemblies. Designed with a self-locking (latching) action, the switch stays in the "ON" position when pressed and requires a second press to return to the "OFF" state. The vibrant yellow actuator serves as an excellent visual indicator for specific system functions or auxiliary power rails.
Self-Locking Latching Mechanism: Delivers consistent "push-on, push-off" functionality, maintaining the circuit state without constant pressure.
Low-Profile Round Design: The compact, circular black housing allows for easy integration into tight panels or custom device enclosures.
High-Visibility Yellow Actuator: The bright yellow button is easy to identify, making it ideal for categorized controls or status toggles.
Horizontal Spade Terminals: Equipped with two flat metal terminals extending from the sides for secure wiring and easy soldering.
Durable Construction: Built from robust synthetic materials to ensure longevity and reliable mechanical operation through repeated use.
This Yellow Latching Power Switch is highly suitable for:
Custom Prototyping: Adding a dedicated power or mode toggle to Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or breadboard projects.
Hobbyist Electronics: Ideal for DIY audio gear, LED lighting controllers, and small household gadgets.
Educational Kits: A great component for teaching basic circuit logic and latching switch mechanics.
Control Interfaces: Use as an auxiliary function switch on custom dashboards or remote control units.
Switch Type: Self-Locking / Latching (Push-On, Push-Off).
Actuator Color: Yellow.
Body Color: Black.
Terminal Style: 2-Pin Horizontal Spade.
Shape: Round / Low-Profile.
Does the button stay clicked in?
Yes. This is a self-locking switch. It latches into place when pressed and stays there until you press it again to release it.
How do I mount this switch?
Due to its flat-bottom design and side terminals, this switch is often mounted by being secured within a custom-sized circular cutout or adhered to a flat surface in low-profile applications.
Can I use this for a 12V automotive circuit?
These switches are typically used for low-voltage signal or light power applications. Always check the amperage rating to ensure it can safely handle the load of your specific 12V device.
