PCB Mount 3-Pin Mini Slide Switch SPDT – Compact ON-ON Slide Switch for Arduino, PCB & DIY Electronics
The PCB Mount 3-Pin Mini Slide Switch (SPDT) is a compact and reliable Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) slide switch designed for PCB mounting and electronic circuit applications. Its small form factor makes it ideal for space-constrained projects where a simple mechanical selection or switching mechanism is required.
With 3 pins and SPDT configuration, the switch can be used to select between two different circuits or signal paths. It is suitable for applications such as ON-ON selection, mode selection, power switching, configuration settings, and input selection.
The PCB-mount design allows the switch to be directly soldered onto a compatible printed circuit board, providing a neat and secure installation.

How It Works
The switch uses an SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) configuration. The center pin acts as the common terminal, while sliding the switch connects it to one of the two outer terminals.
Terminal 1 ↔ Common ↔ Terminal 2
This allows the switch to select between two separate circuits, signals, or operating modes.
