Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a 2-pin momentary tactile push button switch used for in DIY electronics?

A: A 2-pin momentary tactile push button switch is used to temporarily complete or interrupt a circuit only while the button is held down. This makes it ideal for reset buttons, input triggers, menu navigation, and control interfaces in Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other DIY electronic circuit projects.

Q: What does "SMD" mean and how do I install these tactile switches?

A: SMD stands for Surface-Mount Device, meaning these switches are designed to be soldered directly onto the surface of a PCB (printed circuit board) rather than through holes. Simply position the switch on your PCB pads and solder the two pins in place using a soldering iron — no drilling or through-hole mounting required.

Q: How many switches come in a pack and are there color choices?

A: These mini tactile push button switches are available in packs of 50pcs or 100pcs, and come in two color options so you can match your project's design. Bulk packs are great for hobbyists and makers working on multiple builds at once.
