{"title":"5-way Tactile Switch","handle":"5-way-tactile-switch","url":"/products/5-way-tactile-switch","description":"This 5-way tactile switch provides joystick-like directional input in a tiny surface-mount package. It supports four directional movements (up, down, left, right) plus a centre press, making it ideal for menu navigation, cursor control, and compact user interfaces where a full-size joystick won't fit.\n\nThe switch is surface-mount but has large enough pads for hand soldering. Its low profile and small footprint make it well-suited for handheld devices, wearables, and space-constrained PCB designs.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n5-Way Input – Up, down, left, right, and centre press\n\nCompact SMD Package – Joystick-like control in a tiny footprint\n\nHand-Solderable – Surface mount with accessible pad spacing\n\nLow Profile – Minimal height above the PCB\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nMenu navigation and UI control on embedded devices\nHandheld gaming and portable electronics\nWearable device input\nAny project needing directional input in a small form factor\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× 5-Way Tactile Switch (SMD)\n","vendor":"SparkFun","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":13345,"title":"Default Title","sku":"SF-COM-10063","price":8.06,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":34,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
