Crowbits-Switch

What is Crowbits-Switch?

The switch is a digital input module, it acts like the button we introduced before but comes with its own mechanical locking function. It is useful in controlling power connections most of the time.

How does it work?

l The switch is a common switch that has self-lock features. When the switch is pressed for the first time, the switch will remain in on state, which we call self-locking. When the switch is pressed for the second time, the switch button pops up and the switch turns off. The interface of the switch module is a digital interface, it outputs logic low-level and high-level two states.

1. If you push the switch for the first time, the switch will be on, it will output a logic high-level signal.

2. If you press the switch button again, the switch will be off, it will output a logic low-level signal.

Use cases

You could use the switch with output modules, such as a bright LED. You will find that if you press the switch for the first time, the bright LED will turn on all the time until you press the switch again.
