ADE08SA DIP Switch SPST 8 Position Surface Mount Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ADE08SA is a DIP switch manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches, configured as a single-pole single-throw (SPST) 8-position surface mount component. This switch features a slide actuator with a rated current capacity of 100mA at 24VDC, designed for applications requiring manual circuit configuration or selection logic in compact form factors.

The ADE08SA is classified as an obsolete product. Locating equivalent or substitute components is necessary to support legacy system maintenance, repair, and continued production of equipment utilizing this switch configuration. Substitute parts must maintain functional compatibility across circuit, electrical ratings, mounting characteristics, and environmental specifications.
