- | 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. | + | Ideally, a switch device has zero impedance when closed and infinite impedance when open.
