Based on the part number provided, the **2TS-00-R** typically refers to a specific series of **Rotary DIP Switches** or high-precision electromechanical components, often manufactured by companies like *Copal Electronics* or *Nidec*. Below is a technical breakdown of the electronic parts and specifications associated with this component. --- ### 1. Component Overview The 2TS series are surface-mount (SMT) or through-hole miniature switches used to set binary or hexadecimal configurations on a printed circuit board (PCB). | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | Rotary DIP Switch | | **Mounting Type** | Surface Mount (SMT) or Through-Hole | | **Actuator Style** | Recessed / Flat (requires screwdriver or tool) | | **Number of Positions** | Typically 10 (0-9) or 16 (0-F) | | **Output Code** | Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) or Hexadecimal | | **RoHS Compliant** | Yes (indicated by the "-R" suffix) | --- ### 2. Key Technical Specifications These parts are designed for high reliability in harsh environments. * **Contact Rating:** * Switching: 100mA, 5V DC * Non-switching: 100mA, 50V DC * **Contact Resistance:** Generally below 100mΩ. * **Insulation Resistance:** 1,000MΩ minimum at 100V DC. * **Dielectric Strength:** 250V AC for 1 minute. * **Operating Temperature:** -40°C to +85°C. --- ### 3. Suffix Breakdown: 2TS-00-R In electronic component nomenclature, each segment of the part number identifies a specific physical or electrical trait: 1. **2TS:** Identifies the product series (2mm or 7mm square rotary switch family). 2. **00:** Usually denotes the **Real Code** (standard binary/hex logic) where the "ON" position corresponds to the logic high. 3. **-R:** * **RoHS Compliance:** Lead-free and environmentally friendly materials. * **Packaging:** In some manufacturer contexts, R can also denote "Tape & Reel" packaging for automated pick-and-place assembly. --- ### 4. Typical Applications These switches are found in industrial and consumer electronics where "set and forget" configurations are required: * **Address Settings:** Assigning unique IDs to devices on a BUS (like RS-485 or CAN). * **Mode Selection:** Choosing between different firmware operation modes. * **Industrial Controls:** Setting timers or threshold limits on sensors. ---
