76HPSB06GWR DIP Switch Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 76HPSB06GWR is a surface mount DIP switch manufactured by Grayhill Inc., configured as a 6-position SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) switch with piano actuator. This component is rated for 150mA at 30VDC and features gold-plated copper alloy contacts with a raised piano actuator design. The part is currently classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for ongoing production and maintenance applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 76HPSB06GWR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Circuit configuration (SPST), number of positions (6), current rating (150mA), and voltage rating (30VDC) must remain identical.

Mechanical Parameters: Actuator type (piano), actuator level (raised), mounting type (surface mount, right angle), termination style (gull wing), and pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm) must match exactly.

Physical Dimensions: Height above board (0.337" / 8.56mm) and length (0.680" / 17.27mm) must be preserved to ensure PCB layout compatibility.

Material Specifications: Contact material (copper alloy) and contact finish (gold) ensure electrical performance and reliability equivalence.

Environmental Specifications: Operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), mechanical life (2,000 cycles), and electrical life (2,000 cycles) must be maintained.

The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute relates to packaging format and product status, not functional or electrical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 76HPSB06GWRT is the direct functional equivalent of the 76HPSB06GWR. All electrical, mechanical, and dimensional parameters are identical. The substitute part differs only in product status and compliance certifications.

Product Status Consideration: The 76HPSB06GWR is classified as obsolete, while the 76HPSB06GWRT maintains active status. For new designs and ongoing production, the 76HPSB06GWRT is the appropriate selection.

Compliance Consideration: The 76HPSB06GWRT is RoHS3 compliant, whereas the original part is RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations require the substitute part.

Packaging Consideration: The 76HPSB06GWR is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 76HPSB06GWRT is supplied in Tape & Reel format. Packaging selection depends on assembly process requirements and volume specifications.

Both parts share identical REACH and ECCN classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99), indicating no additional regulatory constraints on substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 76HPSB06GWR and 76HPSB06GWRT electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are configured identically as 6-position SPST switches with 150mA at 30VDC ratings, identical contact materials and finishes, and matching electrical life specifications of 2,000 cycles.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are product status (obsolete vs. active), RoHS compliance (non-compliant vs. RoHS3 compliant), and packaging format (bulk vs. Tape & Reel). All functional and electrical parameters are identical.

Q: Can I use the 76HPSB06GWRT as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains identical mechanical dimensions, mounting configuration, and electrical specifications. No PCB layout or circuit modifications are required.

Q: Does the Tape & Reel packaging of the 76HPSB06GWRT affect compatibility?

A: No. Packaging format affects only the supply and handling method, not the component's electrical or mechanical performance. The actual switch component is identical.

Q: Are there any temperature or environmental differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and share the same MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Which part should I specify for new production?

A: The 76HPSB06GWRT should be specified for new designs and ongoing production due to its active product status and RoHS3 compliance.
