The 1825080-1 is a slide switch manufactured by TE Connectivity. Slide switches are electromechanical components used to control the flow of current in a circuit by sliding a slider from one position to another. This particular switch is designed for printed circuit board (PCB) mounting, commonly used in various electronic devices for on/off or mode selection functionality.

Applications:

• Consumer electronics (e.g., radios, televisions, gaming consoles)
• Industrial control panels for equipment mode selection
• Testing and measurement instruments
• Telecommunications equipment
• Computer peripherals (e.g., keyboards, mice)

Features:

• Slide actuator
• PCB mounting
• Multiple positions (likely 2 or 3, based on typical slide switch configurations)
• Through-hole termination
• Compact design

Benefits:

• Easy to operate with a simple sliding action.
• Provides a clear visual indication of the switch's current state.
• Durable construction ensures reliable performance.
• Compact size allows for high-density PCB layouts.
• Cost-effective solution for switching applications.

Additional Details:

The TE Connectivity 1825080-1 slide switch is typically constructed with a plastic housing and metal contacts. The electrical specifications vary based on the switch's specific configuration, but it can typically handle voltages up to 24V DC and currents up to 0.3A. The number of positions can vary between 2 and 3. The contact resistance is usually kept low to minimize power loss. The operating temperature range is typically between -20°C and +70°C. Detailed datasheet is required to ascertain number of poles, throws and exact current carrying capacity.
