Reference for Boards Power Button

Hi all, Just a simple question here. I want to design a custom board with FPGA inside. I like the Red power button of my Altera DE1 https://www.altera.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_us...

Hi,

I don't know what the exact model is they use, I don't even know the manufacturer, but e.g. this one seems to have the same dimensions and pinout: http://www.mouser.de/productdetail/ck-components/pva2eeh1.

Then you need a cap. It's pretty tedious to find one that fits that exact button, but maybe this one: http://www.mouser.com/search/productdetail.aspx?r=0virtualkey0virtualkeypv-rd. You've got to browse through the catalog and read the datasheets to figure out if that one really fits, and if not which does.

Best regards,

edit: i changed the links in this post; in the original version i accidentally linked to a momentary push-button, rather than to a latching one.
