The slide switch in this project is a through-hole, single-pole double-throw (1P2T) switch that lets you route a common terminal between two throws. Here are its key specs:
  • Type: Single-Pole Double-Throw (1P2T) slide switch
  • Mounting: Through-hole, 3.00 mm pin pitch, 5 mm actuator height
  • Electrical Rating: 0.5 A at 50 V DC
  • Manufacturer: Wealth Metal
  • MPN: SS12F44G5
  • Terminals:
    • Common: terminal “B”
    • Throw 1: terminal “C”
    • Throw 2: terminal “A”
Functionally, sliding the actuator connects the common pin (B) to either pin C or pin A, allowing you to select between two outputs or signal paths.
