Key Features
- Normally closed (NC) reed switch contact ensures circuit continuity until a magnetic field is applied
- SMD package enables automated pick-and-place assembly on standard reflow soldering lines up to 260 °C
- Compact surface-mount footprint suits space-constrained PCB designs in industrial and consumer applications
Applications
The PMC-1001THY is used in door and window intrusion-detection systems, position sensing for drawer and lid assemblies, and tamper-detection circuits in industrial enclosures. Its normally closed SMD construction simplifies fail-safe circuit design, where opening a magnetic field triggers an alarm or protective action. The SMD form factor allows integration into high-volume automated assembly workflows for consumer electronics and smart-home devices.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the normally closed (NC) contact state mean for PMC-1001THY circuit design?
In the normally closed configuration, the PMC-1001THY reed switch passes current through its 2-pin contacts when no magnetic field is present. When a magnet approaches and exceeds the switch's operate field strength (typically in the range of a few milliteslas), the contacts open and interrupt the circuit. This behavior suits fail-safe designs where loss of the magnetic field triggers an alarm.
Which assembly processes are compatible with the PMC-1001THY SMD package?
The PMC-1001THY uses a surface-mount (SMD) package that is compatible with standard paste-and-reflow soldering processes. It can be handled by automated pick-and-place equipment and processed at lead-free reflow peak temperatures up to 260 °C, making it straightforward to integrate into high-volume PCB production lines without manual soldering.
In which sensing applications does the PMC-1001THY offer an advantage over a mechanical microswitch?
Unlike a mechanical microswitch that requires physical contact force, the PMC-1001THY responds to a magnetic field with no moving parts pressing against a surface, giving it a longer mechanical life often exceeding 100 million operations. This contactless actuation makes it preferable for door-position sensing, liquid-level detection, and tamper-detection enclosures where physical contact would wear or contaminate the actuator.
