Frequently Asked Questions
How much current can this PCB slide switch handle?
The fetched context lists a 3 A rating, so designers should keep switched loads within that current limit for reliable board-level operation.
Which switching function does 5FD3S1020M2QES provide?
It provides a DPDT On-Off-On function, giving designers a 3-position selector with a center-off state for mode selection or signal routing.
How does the actuator orientation affect panel or PCB layout?
The part is described as top actuated, so layouts should leave operator access above the PCB while respecting the 3 A circuit rating.
