A switch is a component that can “make” or “break” an electrical circuit, thereby interrupting an electric current or diverting it from one conductor to another. There are many different types of switches, including toggle switches, pushbutton switches, micro and limit switches, and relays. All have one thing in common: they bounce.

Keep electronic projects secure & weatherproof with the right enclosures

For many designers of DIY or prototype projects, once the electronics are laid out, finding a suitable enclosure is often left to the last minute. This may be reasonable if it’s going to be used indoors on a desk or placed on a wall, temporarily. But if the project is intended for use outdoors over long periods, it will quickly succumb to the elements or be damaged, either intentionally or unintentionally, by malicious tampering or idle curiosity.
