Introducing the Push Button
A momentary push button closes or completes the circuit only while it is being pressed. The button
has four pins, which are broken out into two sets of two pins. When you press down on the button
and get a nice “click,” the button bridges the two sets of pins and allows current to flow through the
circuit.
