Can someone help me identify this electronic component

[jayad]

Hello there
Newbie here. Found this component while cleaning the garage, battery still attached to it. Trying to find out what it is and if I can safely discard.

I first thought maybe a broken keyfob, but keyfobs generally do not have a battery soldered to it.

Thanks to all in advance for helping me.

I assume you mean the yellow thing. It looks like a small button battery (maybe a cr2032) wrapped in yellow insulation.

Hi RaRay, as my first statement states "Found this component while cleaning the garage, battery still attached to it" the fact the yellow thing is a soldered button battery, that much , even a newbie like me knows. I wouldn't be here on an electronics website asking experts for something as elementary as that. I was wondering what the whole setup was.

I was going to state the same thing as RayRay as you asked about the component not the assembly. To me, it looks like a bell push or something with an LED that lights up when a button is pressed but without seeing under the battey it is hard to tell.

Miscommunication - he asked the wrong question

Presumably it's some sort of remote control or something, I notice it has a timing xtal on it, probably 32KHz.

Rookie error guys. I should have asked what the assembly was. Apologies.

What is the purpose of the SW-200 ? When I looked it up it says ball/tilt switch - something that is used to open or close a circuit when the item is tilted? Would that indicate a remote? I was wondering if it was an older game cartridge/controller by the date 2006 but as you pointed out, it has a single push switch.

Is there a database out there that would identify the DL6J4 (v.1.0) printed on the board? Not sure if it DL6 or DLB

I wouldn't have though so - but as the case seems to have vanished, and the battery looks well corroded, get it in the recycling bin.

You could remove the battery and take a photo of the rest of the components that are presently concealed? That may help identification.

Remains of a remote control for an electric garage door, maybe?
