This week's EYE ON NPI video is very illuminating! It's the C&K KLS Series

Illuminated Pushbutton series.

(https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/c/ck-components/kls-series-illuminated-pushbutton)

These very handsome buttons are clicky, glowy and come in a few

different configurations depending on customer needs.

The switches come in either SPDT or DPDT type, both momentary and latching on/off type, and with concave, flat or large flat clear tops. All of the

ones available for purchase contain both red and green LEDs, so the

front can be lit red, yellow or green. Note that there are 3 parallel

LED inside, so you need 60mA per LED segment,

(https://learn.adafruit.com/all-about-leds) but the front does

illuminate nice and evenly which is something cheaper buttons struggle

with.

The tops are also easily removable, so you can put a label underneath,

and they're nice crystal clear, so you'll get nice even illumination with

an easy-to-clean cover. These are really high quality buttons with an

excellent clicky feel and a durable build, they're perfect for A/V or

industrial equipment where a clean user interface is important.

All of the C&K KLS Series Illuminated Pushbuttons

(https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/c/ck-components/kls-series-illuminated-pushbutton)

are in stock now at Digi-Key for immediate purchase and shipment. Order

today (https://www.digikey.com/short/z3d42v8m) and you can be laying out

your dream control-panel by tomorrow afternoon!
