Pushbutton Switches:AOPD210NUY application field and working principle

As a kind of switch, pushbutton switch is widely used in many fields and has many models, too. This article is going to elaborate on the primary application field and working principle of one model -- AOPD210NUY.

Application Field

AOPD210NUY is a kind of illuminated switch, which combines latching and momentary(push to make and push to break, or impulse) functions. That makes it fit for many fields, including but not limited to: general automation and industrial control, home and commercial appliances, gaming machine, instrumentation and medical instrument and equipment, and aerospace.

Working Principle

AOPD210NUY is a momentary pushbutton switch, which means it will complete the circuit only when pressing it. It is latched, which means it can keep the circuit completed even when you release your finger. At the same time, AOPD210NUY is illuminated, which is mainly operated in the middle or small scale switch. When the power is on, LED light up and the switch started to operate. When pressing the button,it will make contact, and LED will remain lighted. At this time, the switch operates, power through the switch could be transmitted. When releasing the button,it will break contact, and LED will be off, circuit will break. And then, the switch stopped to operate.

Conclusion

The AOPD210NUY switch has a widely application field, which can be used in most places that needs a latching, momentary and illuminated switch. Its primary working principle is also simple, power transmitting while pressing the button, and breaks away while not pressing.
