This page summarises the Cherry MY part number schema. See common schema for a more detailed look at the Cherry part number schema.
As an unlisted type, the only data comes from part number MY1A-21NC, cited by Cherry USA as that of the (type 3) actuator; this part number is also listed in a topic on KBDMania without explanation of its origin, but it may have come from Datacal (who never responded to queries).
