The 8-Pin DIP Switch – 4 Input features four SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) slide switches housed in a standard DIP (Dual In-line Package). Each switch has 2 pins, allowing independent ON/OFF control of four different signals or inputs. This compact and reliable component is ideal for configuring logic levels, selecting operation modes, or setting hardware addresses.
With a 2.54mm (0.1 inch) pin pitch, it's fully compatible with breadboards and standard PCBs, making it perfect for both prototyping and permanent designs.
