hi guys,
two terminals shorted labeled as SW Power in panel 1 of the MOBO will cause the CPU to turn on. Sometimes a switch called micro-switch is used to short these two terminals. I also noticed that printers use the same turning-on and turning-off style, a momentary shorting of two terminals will turn on the printer.
my question is i don't know the name of this switch, i've seen micro-switch but they are large ones compared to, say for example the ones used in printers. the electronic-store people were laughing at me since i did not know the correct name of the part. I had trouble explaining to them what i wanted to buy. can you please teach me the name of this switch?
as usual thank you very much for your help.
