 +===== Introduction =====
 +
 +A switch is a small lever or button. It's an electrical device having at least **two states**, ON (the closed state) or OFF (the open state). ​
 +
 +Ideally, a switch device has zero impedance when closed and infinite impedance when open. The switches on the back of printers and on expansion boards are called DIP switches. ​
 +
 +A switch that has just two positions is called a toggle switch.A "click switch"​ is called SPST switch.
