Switches under Foil

The use of multimec® under a foil overlay offers an attractive alternative to the traditional membrane switch. With a mechanical life of 10 million cycles , multimec® will outperform membrane switches under the most extreme conditions. multimec® switches can be specified with LED illumination to provide back lighting of the overlay for front panel applications. A variety of PCB component heights can be matched with the 3E switch series or varimectm that are available with overall heights ranging from 6.4mm to 22.5mm. While mec does not manufacture foil overlays, our local distributors can help you locate sources of supply.
