Snap Action: The switch utilizes a snap action mechanism, meaning it switches positions quickly with a decisive "snap" as the actuator moves. This type of action ensures reliability and reduces bouncing.
Contact Configuration:
Contacts: Typically, snap action switches have configurations like SPST (Single Pole Single Throw), SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw), or DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw). For the MNPSS3103C, the exact configuration would be specified in the datasheet.
Operating Temperature:
The switch is designed to operate within a specified temperature range, which is important for maintaining reliability in different environmental conditions.
Voltage and Current Ratings:
Voltage Rating: This specifies the maximum voltage the switch can handle.
Current Rating: This denotes the maximum current the switch can carry without degrading performance or safety.
