Push button switch

Push button switch working principle:

 Push button switch is a type of button that is operated by pressing a button. These switches are commonly used to start or stop circuits, control devices, or as input mechanisms in various electronic devices. 



Key Characteristics:

Momentary Action:

 Push button switches are often momentary, meaning they only stay in the on position while the button is pressed. Once released, the switch returns to its original state.

-Latching Action:

 Some push button switches have a latching mechanism, meaning they stay in the on or off position after being pressed until they are pressed again.

Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC): 

Push button switches can be normally open (NO), where the circuit is open until the button is pressed, or normally closed (NC), where the circuit is closed until the button is pressed.

Design Variations:

 They come in various sizes, shapes, and colors, with features like illumination, waterproofing, and different actuation forces.

Applications:

 Commonly used in calculators, computer keyboards, control panels, and as power buttons in various devices.
