New Series of Small, Low-Profile Slide Switches with 2 mm Depth
Slide Switch
SSU series
Announced on July 24, 2009
Overview
As electronic devices have down-sized, demand for slide switch products with high-reliability, good feel, and small mounting areas has been strong.
The <SSU Series> has a double-contact slider format to improve reliability and a click mechanism provided by a plate spring, and has been developed to realize a reduced size and a depth of only 2 mm. The series includes a high-versatility 1-circuit 2-contact type and a 1-circuit 3-contact type.

§ Features
1.
Small size: 2.0 × 6.8 × 1.2 (h) (1-circuit 2-contact type), 2.0 × 8.1 × 1.2 (h) (1-circuit 3-contact type).
2.
49% reduction in mounting area (compared with the SSQ series 1-circuit 3-contact type, a previous Mitsumi product).
3.
High contact reliability realized through use of double contact slider connection.
4.
Two types of the 1-circuit 2-contact type are available, a vertical grip type and a horizontal grip type.
