Component Name

Black R13-507 12mm No Lock Push, Button Momentary Switch 3A, 250V

Description

The Black R13-507 is a 12mm push-button momentary switch designed for various applications in the Internet of Things (IoT) domain. This switch is a type of electromechanical device that provides a simple and intuitive way to control electrical circuits.

Functionality

The Black R13-507 switch is a momentary action switch, meaning it only closes the circuit when the button is pressed and held down. When the button is released, the circuit opens, and the switch returns to its default state.

Key Features

  • Momentary Action: The switch only closes the circuit when the button is pressed and held down, making it ideal for temporary activation applications.
  • No Lock Mechanism: The switch does not have a locking mechanism, which means it does not stay in the activated state when the button is released.
  • Button Size and Type: The switch features a 12mm diameter push-button, making it easy to interact with and suitable for various panel mounting applications.
  • Electrical Ratings:

Current Rating

3A (Amps)

Voltage Rating

Pin Configuration

  • Black R13-507 12mm No Lock Push, Button Momentary Switch 3A, 250V
  • Pinout Explanation:
  • The Black R13-507 12mm No Lock Push, Button Momentary Switch has 4 pins. Here's a detailed explanation of each pin:
  • Pin 1: Common (COM)
  • Function: This pin serves as the common terminal for the switch.
  • Description: The Common pin is connected to both Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) terminals internally.
  • Pin 2: Normally Open (NO)
  • Function: This pin is connected to the Common terminal when the button is pressed.
  • Description: When the switch is in its normal state (not pressed), the NO pin is open-circuit (high impedance). When the button is pressed, the NO pin connects to the COM pin, allowing current to flow.
  • Pin 3: Normally Closed (NC)
  • Function: This pin is connected to the Common terminal when the button is not pressed.
  • Description: When the switch is in its normal state (not pressed), the NC pin is connected to the COM pin. When the button is pressed, the NC pin is open-circuit (high impedance).
  • Pin 4: Not Connected (NC)
  • Function: This pin is not connected to any internal terminal and is usually left unconnected.
  • Description: This pin is reserved and should not be used.
  • Connection Structure:
  • To connect the Black R13-507 12mm No Lock Push, Button Momentary Switch, follow these steps:
  • Step 1: Determine the Connection Type
  • Identify whether you need a Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC) connection.
  • Step 2: Connect the Common Pin
  • Connect Pin 1 (COM) to a fixed voltage source (e.g., VCC) or a common bus.
  • Step 3: Connect the Switch Terminals
  • For a Normally Open (NO) connection:
  • + Connect Pin 2 (NO) to the load or circuit you want to control (e.g., an LED, relay, or transistor).
  • + Ensure the load is rated for the switch's maximum current (3A) and voltage (250V).
  • For a Normally Closed (NC) connection:
  • + Connect Pin 3 (NC) to the load or circuit you want to control (e.g., an LED, relay, or transistor).
  • + Ensure the load is rated for the switch's maximum current (3A) and voltage (250V).
  • Step 4: Leave Pin 4 Unconnected
  • Do not connect Pin 4 (NC) to any circuit, as it is reserved and not intended for use.
  • When the button is pressed, the switch will connect the COM pin to either the NO pin or the NC pin, depending on the chosen configuration, allowing the load to turn on or off accordingly.

Code Examples
### Example 1: Basic Button Press Detection using Arduino
In this example, we'll use the Black R13-507 switch to detect button presses using an Arduino board.
Hardware Connection
Connect Pin 1 (NO) to digital pin 2 on the Arduino board
 Connect Pin 2 (COM) to GND on the Arduino board
Arduino Code
```c
const int buttonPin = 2;  // Pin 1 (NO) connected to digital pin 2
void setup() {
  pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);
}
void loop() {
  int buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
  if (buttonState == HIGH) {
    // Button is pressed, perform action here
    Serial.println("Button pressed!");
  }
  delay(50);  // Debounce delay
}
```
### Example 2: Controlling an LED using Raspberry Pi (Python)
In this example, we'll use the Black R13-507 switch to control an LED connected to a Raspberry Pi.
Hardware Connection
Connect Pin 1 (NO) to GPIO pin 17 on the Raspberry Pi
 Connect Pin 2 (COM) to GND on the Raspberry Pi
 Connect the LED to GPIO pin 18 and GND on the Raspberry Pi
Python Code
```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
button_pin = 17
led_pin = 18
GPIO.setup(button_pin, GPIO.IN, pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_UP)
GPIO.setup(led_pin, GPIO.OUT)
while True:
    if GPIO.input(button_pin) == GPIO.LOW:
        # Button is pressed, turn on the LED
        GPIO.output(led_pin, GPIO.HIGH)
    else:
        # Button is released, turn off the LED
        GPIO.output(led_pin, GPIO.LOW)
```
Note: In both examples, ensure to use a suitable resistor in series with the LED to limit the current.
