Description

The 16mm Illuminated Pushbutton in blue is a medium-sized momentary switch that combines a tactile button with an integrated LED. The button is easily pressable without being bulky, making it ideal for project panels and control interfaces.

This switch features a built-in blue LED, which can be controlled independently from the switch action, allowing for versatile signaling or aesthetic functionality. The LED operates at approximately 3V forward voltage and should be connected with a 220 to 1000 ohm resistor in series to a 3V or higher power supply.

The button shell is made of black plastic, with two contacts for the switch operation (normally open and momentary) and two separate contacts for the LED (marked + and -). Pressing the button temporarily connects the switch contacts until released, while the LED can be lit continuously or based on button state.

  • Blue body and blue LED
  • Momentary, normally open switch
  • Two switch contacts and two LED contacts
  • Compatible with Arcade Button Quick-Connect Wire Pairs - 0.11" (10 pack)
