Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 95C06A2T is determined by strict equivalence in the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
• Contact rating: 0.05A @ 12VDC
• Switch function: Off-Mom
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Actuator orientation: Top Actuated
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Mechanical life: 1,000,000 Cycles minimum
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Actuator height off PCB (vertical)
• Outline dimensions
• Operating force
• Switch travel distance
• Operating temperature range (may extend beyond -25°C ~ 70°C)
• Packaging format

The substitute part TL6100CF130QP from E-Switch meets all mandatory matching parameters while exhibiting allowable variations in physical dimensions and operating characteristics.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part: 95C06A2T

The 95C06A2T remains the primary selection when the specified mechanical envelope (6.20mm x 6.20mm outline, 4.30mm actuator height) and operating force (100gf) are design constraints. This part is active and maintains full inventory availability (1176 pcs).

Substitute Part: TL6100CF130QP

The TL6100CF130QP from E-Switch qualifies as a functional equivalent when:

• PCB layout accommodates the larger outline (7.20mm x 7.20mm) and increased actuator height (6.90mm)
• Application tolerates the higher operating force (130gf) and increased switch travel (0.50mm)
• Extended operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C) provides operational advantage over the primary part
• Supply chain or lead time considerations necessitate an alternative source

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 classification, ensuring regulatory equivalence for component selection purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TL6100CF130QP be used as a direct drop-in replacement for 95C06A2T?

A: Functional substitution is possible provided the PCB layout accommodates dimensional differences. The TL6100CF130QP has a larger footprint (7.20mm x 7.20mm vs. 6.20mm x 6.20mm) and taller actuator (6.90mm vs. 4.30mm). Verify clearance in the mechanical assembly before implementation.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: Both parts share identical electrical specifications (SPST-NO, 0.05A @ 12VDC, momentary function). Differences include: actuator height (+2.60mm), outline dimensions (+1.00mm), operating force (+30gf), switch travel (+0.25mm), and operating temperature range (extended to -40°C ~ 85°C for the substitute).

Q: Are there compliance or regulatory differences?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, MSL 1 rated, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99. Regulatory equivalence is confirmed.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-temperature applications?

A: The TL6100CF130QP supports operation to 85°C, compared to 70°C for the 95C06A2T. For applications requiring extended upper temperature limits, the substitute part provides operational advantage.

Q: Does packaging format affect substitution eligibility?

A: Packaging format (Bag for 95C06A2T, Tube for TL6100CF130QP) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Selection depends on inventory management and handling requirements.

Q: What is the mechanical life expectancy for both parts?

A: Both parts are rated for 1,000,000 cycles, providing equivalent mechanical durability.
