Switch

Switches are electronic components used to control the flow of current in a circuit. They come in many different types and configurations, including toggle switches, rocker switches, push-button switches, and rotary switches. Switches can be used to turn a circuit on or off, change its direction, or select different modes of operation. They can also be used for safety purposes, such as to cut off power in case of an emergency. Switches are typically rated for a certain amount of voltage and current, and can be designed for different environments and applications, such as automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics. Some switches can also be illuminated or backlit to indicate their state or to enhance their visibility in low-light conditions. Choosing the right switch for a given application depends on factors such as its electrical rating, mounting style, and durability. Commonly used switch brands include Omron, Cherry, and C&K.
