Working principle of optical switch: Infrared optical sensor components, using the principle of light induction, generate different equivalent resistances, forming two states of open circuit and path, thereby triggering the key signal command.

Features:● One pack includes 70pcs gateron switches.● 80 million clicking life for long time use.● It can support SMD optical keyboard,such as SK61 /SK64 /X-bow Nature Knight● This optical switches can't interchange for mechanical MX switches, such as GK61 GK64 can't use it. The bottom structure is different.
Please note: Optical switches, unconventional mechanical switches, are not compatible with any MX switch PCB and keyboard.
