Latching Switch - DPDT 6 Pins 2.5mm Pitch

[dbarry722SAJU6]

Hi Folks

I'm new to Eagle so practising with tutorials and I've started with an easy circuit - Switching an LED on and off.

The circuit work fine but I'm now looking to adapt it based on a circuit for a boat compass light. Unfortunately Salt water and electronics don't mix too well on an inflatable - no matter how well it is waterproofed. The problem I'm having is the switch that is required based on the current circuit board in the compass. I've hunted up and down the libraries but can't seem to find one that looks like what I need. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place or it doesn't exist - Yet!.

I've attached a photograph of the switch in question. Its a Latching DPDT 6 Pins 2.5mm Pitch.

Any assistance would be gratefully appreciated

Hello and welcome.  Are you using EAGLE, or Fusion Electronics?

Hi @dbarry722SAJU6,

I hope you're doing well. I would recommend that you go online and find the specific switch you want to buy for your circuit. Then based on the datasheet you can create the switch yourself. Check the switch library that comes with EAGLE you may find something similar, but honestly you are better off picking the specific switch you want to use and then going from there.

Best Regards,
