You can’t choose a membrane switch without considering the panel. Like all switches, membrane switches are used to control a circuit. They feature one or more buttons that, when pressed, will open or close a circuit. Membrane switches simply feature an...

Switches are commonly used to control devices. A switch, of course, is an electrical component that can complete or break a circuit. While all switches are essentially controllable circuits, they are available in different types. In addition to mechanical switches,...

Capacitive switches have become a popular alternative to mechanical switches. As their name suggests, they leverage capacitance. Capacitive switches measure changes in capacitance, and they use this information to open or close a circuit. Pressing a capacitive switch...

Switches are the building blocks of nearly all electronic devices. Consisting of conductive paths, they are designed to control a circuit. Switches can open or close a circuit. An open circuit, of course, means that electricity can’t flow all the way through it....

When researching the different types of switches, you may come across piezo. Not all switches rely on moving parts. In addition to mechanical switches, there are piezo switches. Piezo switches are essentially touch switches that feature a piezoelectric panel. The...
