The TC-00100V is a high-quality through-hole right-angle tactile switch (also known as a tact switch) designed for reliable, momentary push-button operation in compact electronic assemblies. With an outline dimension of 8.2 × 6.0 mm, this side-actuated switch offers a space-efficient footprint ideal for PCB edge mounting, allowing actuation from the side rather than vertically.

Key features include customizable operation force options of 100 gf, 160 gf, 180 gf, or 250 gf, enabling designers to select the preferred tactile feel—from light and responsive to firm and deliberate—depending on the application. Actuator height from the switch bottom comes in versatile choices: 5.0 mm, 5.5 mm, 6.0 mm, 7.5 mm, and 8.0 mm, providing flexibility to match enclosure designs, button travel requirements, or ergonomic needs.

The actuator combines hard plastic for structural durability with soft silicone for enhanced tactile feedback and comfortable pressing sensation. Built for longevity, the mechanism supports a mechanical/electrical lifecycle of up to 1 million operations (maximum), ensuring dependable performance in high-use environments.

Rated typically for low-power circuits (e.g., DC 12V, 50mA), the TC-00100V excels in applications requiring precise, crisp feedback. It is widely used in game controllers, gamepads, industrial control panels, remote controls, consumer electronics, and instrumentation where side-access buttons improve layout efficiency and user experience. Its robust construction, multiple configuration options, and proven reliability make the TC-00100V a trusted choice for both professional and gaming-grade designs.
