The **10TS-5G0-R** is a specific electronic component, typically categorized as a **DIP (Dual In-line Package) Switch**. These switches are used on printed circuit boards (PCBs) to manually set configurations, binary codes, or hardware addresses. Below is a detailed breakdown of its specifications and physical characteristics. --- ### 1. General Specifications The part number usually corresponds to a **5-position** tactile or DIP-style switch. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | DIP Switch / Program Switch | | **Number of Positions** | 5 (Selectable switches) | | **Actuator Style** | Raised / Slide | | **Mounting Type** | Through-Hole (THT) | | **Pitch (Spacing)** | 2.54mm (0.1 inch) Standard | | **Contact Material** | Gold-plated (typically) for corrosion resistance | --- ### 2. Electrical Characteristics These switches are designed for low-power signal switching rather than high-power loads. * **Switching Capacity:** Usually 25mA at 24V DC. * **Non-Switching Rating:** 100mA at 50V DC. * **Contact Resistance:** Typically < 50mΩ initially. * **Insulation Resistance:** > 100MΩ at 500V DC. * **Dielectric Strength:** 500V AC for 1 minute. --- ### 3. Mechanical & Environmental Features The "R" in the suffix often denotes specific packaging or environmental compliance (such as RoHS). * **Operating Temperature:** -20°C to +85°C (Industrial Grade). * **Durability:** Mechanical life of approximately 2,000 to 5,000 cycles per switch. * **Material:** High-temperature Thermoplastic (UL94V-0 rated) to withstand soldering heat. * **Seal:** Often comes with a top-tape seal to prevent flux contamination during wave soldering. --- ### 4. Common Applications * **Network Equipment:** Setting IP addresses or hardware IDs. * **Industrial Controls:** Configuring baud rates or operational modes. * **Consumer Electronics:** Garage door openers (security codes) or PC peripherals. * **Prototyping:** Manually toggling logic levels (High/Low) on a breadboard. --- ### 5. Circuit Diagram (Internal) Each position on the 5-G0-R acts as an independent Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) switch. ```text [Top View] 1 2 3 4 5 ON ON ON ON ON | | | | | | | | | | |S| |S| |S| |S| |S| <-- Sliders |_| |_| |_| |_| |_| | | | | | (Common Pins Below) ```
