Nidec Copal CFP Slide Switch

In modern electronic assembly, board space and signal integrity are paramount. The CFP series addresses these needs by offering an ultra-thin form factor integrated with advanced material technology. The core advantage of the Nidec Copal CFP slide switch lies in its non-shorting, twin-contact architecture. By providing two points of contact, the switch significantly reduces the possibility of signal dropout caused by microscopic dust or environmental oxidation, ensuring a consistent electrical connection throughout its operational life.

Operationally, the CFP series is designed for seamless integration into high-speed production lines. It utilizes heat-resistant resin housing that maintains its structural integrity during the high temperatures of infrared reflow soldering. Its washable design further enhances its industrial value, as flux residues can be safely removed without damaging the internal mechanics. With a clear tactile detent and a gold-plated interface, the CFP series provides the precision feedback and low contact resistance necessary for sophisticated professional electronics.

Description

The Nidec Copal CFP slide switch is a high-performance, surface-mount (SMT) subminiature component designed for precise signal switching in compact electronic devices. Featuring a specialized twin-contact mechanism, this switch ensures high contact reliability and stable electrical performance for critical board-level configurations.

The Nidec Copal CFP Series is a line of high-reliability Piano-style DIP switches. Unlike standard slide switches that move horizontally, these feature a vertical “piano” action (right-angle), making them ideal for edge-of-board configurations where settings need to be adjusted from the side of a device.
