Description

Maintained DIP switching and tactile operation

DS428, SS428A and WMS428B provide individual DIP switch positions. MSS430 is a separate 12×12mm tactile SPST pushbutton configuration. Select by function first: its contact rating, operating life and outline differ from the DIP types.

Storage temperature-45°C to +110°C
Withstand testUnestablished: 250VAC and 500VAC are both listed for 1 minute250VAC for 1 minute
Working voltage / currentUnspecified
Operating-temperature rangeUnspecified

The withstand entries are test voltages, not working ratings. For DS428 and SS428A, the applicable test level requires an exact-part check. WMS428B's 260°C thermoplastic notation does not establish an operating temperature or a complete reflow profile.

Actuator square 1mm with 0.60mm projection.Vertical: 2.54mm pitch, 7.62mm rows, Ø0.85mm holes. SMT: 2.54mm pitch, 1.10mm pad width, 7.40mm inner and 10.40mm outer transverse spans.
WMS428BLength N×2.54mm+0.96mm; 6.80mm body width, 3.10mm body-height reference. Vertical tails 3.60mm, 0.25×0.50mm pins. SMT overall height reference 3.60mm and lead span 9.80mm.Vertical: 2.54mm pitch, 7.62mm rows, Ø0.85mm holes. SMT: 2.54mm pitch, 1.10mm pad width, 6.80mm inner and 10.80mm outer transverse spans.

N is the number of switch positions. All illustrated PCB layouts specify ±0.05mm tolerance. Packaging codes for SS428A and WMS428B are B tube, T tray and R tape-and-reel. The SS428A ordering graphic is headed MDS428A; that original label is retained and does not establish an additional model.

The MSS430 outline shows a 3.35mm housing reference, Ø7.1mm actuator reference and a 0.5mm maximum upper reference. Alternate outlines have 15mm or 18mm lead spans; no specific span is assigned to every ordering combination. The PCB pattern shows 5mm terminal-row spacing, 12.4mm inner and 15.5mm outer longitudinal spans, 1.6mm pad reference and ±0.05mm layout tolerance.

Materials

All four model entries list thermoplastic insulation, material group I, UL94V-0 and copper-alloy contacts. Specific contact plating is unspecified. The material flammability entry does not establish a product certification.
