Abstract
The double switch includes a core formed of insulating material and a connector formed of electrically conductive material. The connector extends along a front face of the core and has spring portions overlying a pair of isolated terminals secured on the opposite ends of the core. The connector includes a first pad lying in a plane common to second and third pads such that the switch can be mounted on a printed circuit board. By deflecting one or more of the spring portions into the second or third pad, an electrical circuit is completed between the first pad and the selected pad.
