GPB553A2L01BA Switches

Pushbutton Switches are electrical switches that are used to control a circuit by the application of pressure. The GPB553A2L01BA Pushbutton Switch is a momentary switch, meaning it provides a function for a specified amount of time before returning to its normal state. Typically, the switch is made from plastic and is equipped with two metal contacts. When pressure is applied, either placed on the contact or a button is pressed, the switch temporarily switches from an open ‘off’ position to a closed ‘on’ position.

The GPB553A2L01BA Pushbutton Switch is designed to operate in a low-voltage circuit, typically between 3 and 6 volts. This type of switch is considered to have a fast response time, meaning it can quickly switch from on to off and back again with minimal resistance. This switch is also relatively small and compact, making it ideal for use in circuits with limited space. Additionally, it is UL approved and RoHS compliant, meaning it meets the most stringent safety standards.

The GPB553A2L01BA pushbutton switch has a wide range of applications and can be used as a basic control switch in a variety of different circuits. In computer applications, it is often used to activate a specific function or to initiate a sequence of events. It can also be used in industrial applications to start or stop machinery and equipment. In addition, it can be used in home and office settings to control lighting and other electrical appliances.

The working principle behind the Pushbutton Switch is quite simple. When the switch is in the ‘off’ position, there is an open circuit between the two contacts. When pressure is applied to the contact or a button is pressed, the switch closes the circuit and current flows. Once the pressure is removed from the contact or the button is released, the circuit is no longer closed and current ceases to flow, returning the switch back to its ‘off’ position.

The GPB553A2L01BA Pushbutton Switch is an ideal choice for a variety of applications. It is small, reliable, and UL approved, making it a safe and cost-effective solution for use in low-voltage circuits. Whether you need a switch for a computer application or an industrial one, the Pushbutton Switch is the perfect choice.
