C&K’s extensive line of miniature tact switches are well suited to the needs of the home health care market. If a sealed switch is required, the KSC and KMR6 series tact switches meet IP67 and come in footprints of 6.8 mm x 6.2 mm and 4.2 mm x 2.8 mm respectively. Both come with Gold contacts for added corrosion protection and have adjustable “haptic” features. For reset buttons or for actuation of small devices such as pulse oximeters, the KMT0 and KXT3 series have footprints of 3 mm x 2.6 mm and 3 mm x 2 mm. For more cost sensitive products where IP67 is not required, C&K’s PTS series offers a balance between performance and cost. The PTS645 and PTS840, with footprints of 6 mm x 3.5 mm and 3.5 mm x 3.55 mm respectively, are ideal choices for digital thermometers, blood glucose monitors, and wearable bio-sensors. For tamper protection on IoT healthcare devices such as “smart” pill dispensers, C&K offer a number of detect switches such as the HDT series which comes in a low profile package with a 3.5 mm x 2.8 mm footprint and is available with top or side actuation.
