Cherry Switches

Introduction

These precision, rotary, multi-position switches are indeed remarkable. They are small, lightweight . . . yet rugged. They can be used both for low level switching and for encoding. They consume no power. They read out their contact setting at all times and are available in virtually any code with several types of terminations. They offer choices of actuation method . . . of legend . . . of body color . . . of lighted and non-lighted versions. And they are fully selfcontained, requiring no auxiliary knobs, dials or bezels. There just aren’t any other electromechanical components that offer the engineer such a tremendous spectrum of design options.
