GDB1-S-08-1-ZB-SB

Overview

The GDB1-S-08-1-ZB-SB is a DIP switch manufactured by TE Connectivity under the ALCOSWITCH brand. It features a rocker actuator mechanism with a Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) configuration. The component is designed for circuit switching applications requiring low current handling capabilities, specifically rated at 25mA. The electrical rating includes a maximum voltage of 24V. This specific part number represents a variant within the GDB1 series, distinguished by its packaging and termination style suffixes.

Feature Summary

• Rocker actuator design for tactile operation
• Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) contact configuration
• Low current switching capability suitable for signal circuits

Applications

• Electronic equipment control panels
• Circuit configuration settings in consumer electronics
• Industrial control module programming

Procurement Notes

Verify the RoHS compliance status carefully, as documentation indicates this specific variant may be non-compliant. Confirm that the 25mA current rating and 24V voltage limit align with your circuit requirements. Ensure the SPST configuration meets the logical switching needs of the design. Check for any specific environmental certifications required for the target application market.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a rocker-style DIP switch is required for low-power signal switching. The SPST configuration is appropriate for simple on/off control functions. Consider the physical dimensions and mounting style if space is constrained. Evaluate the 25mA rating to ensure it exceeds the operating current of the controlled circuit to prevent premature failure.

Part Context

This component belongs to the GDB1 series of DIP switches from TE Connectivity's ALCOSWITCH line. These switches are commonly used in electronic assemblies where manual configuration or mode selection is necessary. The series offers various configurations and actuator types to suit different user interface requirements.
