PUSH BUTTON red (1a)

Push Button – Red (Momentary, 1A Rated)

Overview:

This is a red momentary push button switch, perfect for triggering inputs in electronics and microcontroller projects. The switch is normally open (NO) — it only conducts when pressed, then returns to its original position when released.

It features 2 pins, supports up to 1A current, and fits well into breadboards, perfboards, and panels. Ideal for Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, or any low-voltage control circuit.

Key Features:

• Type: Momentary (Normally Open)

• Color: Red

• Number of Pins: 2

• Compact round design for panel or board mounting

• Rated Current: 1A max

• Easy to use in breadboards and soldering projects

• Ideal for user input, control panels, resets, start/stop functions

Technical Specifications:

Wiring with Arduino:

Use a pull-up resistor, or set INPUT_PULLUP in code.

Arduino Sample Code:

cpp
CopyEdit
const int buttonPin = 2;
const int ledPin = 13;

void setup() {
  pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT_PULLUP); // Use internal pull-up resistor
  pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
  if (digitalRead(buttonPin) == LOW) { // Button pressed
    digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
  } else {
    digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
  }
}

Applications:

• User input button for Arduino and ESP32

• Start/stop or reset button for devices

• Menu or selection input in display projects

• Control for relays or motor triggers

• Prototyping and educational projects
