D6 Key Switch The D6 is a single-pole, momentary action, normally open keyswitch specially designed for digital electronic controls. Its small size enables keyboard design with minimum center spacing of 12.7 mm (0.500). The commoned terminals offer the possibility of X, Y coding on just a single sided printed circuit board. A total travel of 0.8 mm (0.0315) combined with a snap effect provides the user with a smooth, gentle, yet positive tactile feedback. Built-in buttons (square or round) are available in several colors and have been designed to fit directly on front panels. The D6 version with plunger 3.3 3.3 mm (0.130 0.130) can accept any standard or customer-designed button. Flat D6 can be actuated with customer designed buttons or behind a membrane. A version exists for high temperature, resisting wave soldering in severe conditions. This type is offered only in black.
