Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the pitch size of these DIP switches and are they breadboard-compatible?

A: Yes! These DIP switches feature a standard 2.54mm (0.1") pitch, which is the universal standard for breadboards, perfboards, and most through-hole PCB layouts. They plug directly into a breadboard without any adapters or modifications needed.

Q: What is the difference between Kit 01 and Kit 02?

A: Kit 01 contains 10 pieces each of 2P, 3P, and 4P DIP switches (30 pieces total) — great if you mainly use smaller, common switch sizes. Kit 02 includes 5 pieces each of 1P, 2P, 3P, 4P, 5P, 6P, 8P, and 10P switches (40 pieces total), offering a broader range of positions ideal for diverse circuit board and prototyping projects.

Q: What are the voltage and current ratings for these slide type DIP switches?

A: These switches are rated at 24V DC / 25mA (switching) and 24V DC / 100mA (non-switching). They are well-suited for low-voltage logic circuits, microcontroller projects, Arduino builds, and other electronics requiring configuration or mode-selection switches.

Q: Can these DIP switches be used in professional PCB projects?

A: Absolutely. With a contact resistance of just 50mΩ and an insulation resistance of 500MΩ at DC 500V, these switches offer reliable performance for both hobby and professional-grade circuit board designs, including data processing and communication equipment.
