Hello all,
I am working on a simple buck converter which has a LDO at the O/P. Both the switcher and the LDO are variable and should be adjusted by a changeable voltage divider. My plan is to keep it simple and use a couple of DPST switches in such a configuration ->
[attachimg=2]
I would like to know if such a DPST switch exists in SMD package and Low profile (wrt height) from any of the known vendors out there.
Something like this ->
[attachimg=1]
The only thing that I have found that could probably do the job is this ->

Although the height is slightly higher than I would like (~9.12mm).
I would also appreciate if someone can critic my design and suggest me some other better way to do the same...
Regards,
Ashwin619.

Hello jc101,
Thanks for your suggestion. I did had a look at this and it seems fine, although one issue with this switch is that its rocker is quite exposed and susceptible to move by accident by someone's touch. Nevertheless will consider it if nothing works out...
