Axial Lead Reed Switches
Low Power > MACD-14
MACD-14 14mm Close-Differential Reed Switch
RoHS
Description
The MACD-14 reed switch is a close-differential, sub-miniature, normally open
switch with a 14.00mm long x 2.28mm diameter (0.551” x 0.090”) glass
envelope, capable of switching 200Vdc at 10W.
This reed switch is also available in a surface mount version, that is, MASM-14.
It has a high insulation resistance of 10
10
ohms minimum and contact resistance
less than 100 milli-ohms. Both reed switches are intended for use in applications
that require low hysteresis between Pull-In and Drop-Out values.

• Low close/open hysteresis (close
differential)
• Normally open switch
• Capable of switching
200Vdc or 0.5A at up to 10W
Benefits
• Hermetically sealed switch
contacts are not affected by and
have no effect on their external
environment
• Zero operating power required for
contact closure
• Excellent for switching micro-
controller logic level loads

Notes:
1. Contact rating - Product of the switching voltage and current should never exceed the wattage rating. Contact Littelfuse for additional load/life information.
2. When switching inductive and/or capacitive loads, the effects of transient voltages and/or currents should be considered. Refer to Application Notes AN108A and AN107 for details.
3. Electrical Load Life Expectancy - Contact Littelfuse with voltage and current values along with type of load.
4. Breakdown Voltage - per MIL-STD-202, Method 301.
5. Storage Temperature - Long time exposure at elevated temperature may degrade solderability of the leads.
