Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 95C06A4T is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

Electrical Equivalence:

• Circuit configuration must be SPST-NO
• Contact rating must support 0.05A @ 12VDC minimum
• Switch function must be Off-Mom (momentary operation)

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Mounting type must be Through Hole
• Actuator orientation must be Top Actuated
• Termination style must be PC Pin
• Non-illuminated configuration

Regulatory & Environmental:

• RoHS3 Compliant status required
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Unaffected status

Variable Parameters (Application-Dependent):

• Actuator height off PCB (4.30mm vs. 6.90mm)
• Outline dimensions (6.20mm x 6.20mm vs. 7.20mm x 7.20mm)
• Operating force (260gf vs. 130gf)
• Operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 70°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C)
• Switch travel (0.25mm vs. 0.50mm)
• Mechanical life (500,000 cycles vs. 1,000,000 cycles)

The substitute part TL6100CF130QP meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical criteria. Variable parameters must be evaluated against specific PCB layout constraints and application performance requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 95C06A4T and TL6100CF130QP are active products with full regulatory compliance (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected). Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific mechanical and environmental constraints:

Select 95C06A4T when:

• PCB space is constrained and lower actuator height (4.30mm) is required
• Smaller footprint (6.20mm x 6.20mm) is necessary
• Higher operating force (260gf) is preferred for tactile feedback
• Operating temperature range of -25°C ~ 70°C is sufficient

Select TL6100CF130QP when:

• Extended operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C) is required
• Higher mechanical life (1,000,000 cycles) is specified
• Lower actuator force (130gf) is preferred for user interface applications
• Larger actuator height (6.90mm) and footprint (7.20mm x 7.20mm) are acceptable

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance (0.05A @ 12VDC, SPST-NO, momentary operation) and are suitable for direct substitution provided PCB layout and mechanical envelope constraints are satisfied.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TL6100CF130QP be used as a direct replacement for 95C06A4T on existing PCBs?

A: Direct replacement requires verification of three factors: (1) PCB hole spacing and through-hole diameter compatibility with PC Pin termination, (2) available vertical clearance for the increased actuator height (6.90mm vs. 4.30mm), and (3) horizontal clearance for the larger outline (7.20mm x 7.20mm vs. 6.20mm x 6.20mm). If these mechanical constraints are satisfied, electrical substitution is valid.

Q: What is the significance of the 130gf vs. 260gf operating force difference?

A: Operating force determines the tactile feedback and actuation pressure required from the user. The 95C06A4T requires approximately twice the force (260gf) compared to TL6100CF130QP (130gf). Selection depends on application requirements: higher force for industrial control panels, lower force for consumer interface applications.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when substituting these parts?

A: Yes. The 95C06A4T is supplied in Bag packaging, while TL6100CF130QP is supplied in Tube packaging. This affects handling, storage, and automated assembly processes. Verify that receiving and assembly equipment can accommodate the different packaging format.

Q: Which part should be selected for applications requiring extended temperature operation?

A: The TL6100CF130QP supports -40°C ~ 85°C operating temperature, compared to -25°C ~ 70°C for the 95C06A4T. For applications requiring operation below -25°C or above 70°C, TL6100CF130QP is the appropriate selection.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both 95C06A4T and TL6100CF130QP are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Regulatory compliance is equivalent between the two parts.

Q: What is the difference in mechanical life between these parts?

A: The 95C06A4T is rated for 500,000 mechanical cycles, while TL6100CF130QP is rated for 1,000,000 cycles. For high-cycle applications, TL6100CF130QP provides extended service life. For standard applications, both parts exceed typical operational requirements.
