Tactile Button - SMD (12mm)

The SMD 12mm square SPST button from Sparkfun is a versatile and tactile component that is ideally suited for user input or as a reset button on a PCB. With its large button head, it provides a satisfying 'click', making it a pleasure to use. This button also features on Sparkfun's own PicoBoard, a testament to its reliability and functionality. However, as this is an SMD component, proficiency in soldering is recommended before integrating this button into your project.

One of the key benefits of the SMD 12mm square SPST button is its tactile feedback. This feature enhances the user experience by providing a noticeable physical response when the button is pressed. This tactile feedback can be particularly useful in applications where user input is required, as it provides confirmation that the input has been registered.

Furthermore, the large button head of the SMD 12mm square SPST button makes it easy to locate and press, which can be an important factor in many applications. For example, in projects where user input is required frequently or in rapid succession, the large button head can help to reduce errors and increase efficiency.

The SMD 12mm square SPST button is also a versatile component, capable of being used in a wide range of applications. Whether you're designing a custom keyboard, a game controller, or any other device that requires user input, this button is a reliable and high-quality choice. Its inclusion on Sparkfun's own PicoBoard is a testament to its quality and versatility.

However, it's important to note that the SMD 12mm square SPST button is an SMD component, and therefore requires soldering to integrate into a project. As such, it's recommended that you have a good level of soldering skill before attempting to use this button in your designs.
