ADPA06 DIP Switch SPST 6-Position Piano Actuator Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ADPA06 is a 6-position DIP switch manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches, configured as a Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) switch with piano actuator mechanism. This component is rated for 25mA at 24VDC and is designed for through-hole, right-angle PCB mounting with gold-plated copper alloy contacts.

The ADPA06 carries an Obsolete product status. Identification of equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure component availability, and support ongoing production and field service requirements for legacy systems utilizing this switch configuration.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ADPA06 DIP switch is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Circuit Configuration: SPST topology must be maintained to preserve switching logic and control functionality.

Number of Positions: The 6-position configuration is a fundamental design requirement and cannot be altered without circuit redesign.

Current and Voltage Ratings: The 25mA at 24VDC specification establishes the electrical load capacity. Substitute parts must meet or exceed these ratings without introducing incompatible voltage or current characteristics.

Actuator Type and Mechanism: Piano actuator mechanism is a mechanical and functional requirement for user interface consistency and operational reliability.

Mounting Configuration: Through-hole, right-angle mounting is a physical PCB integration requirement. Substitute parts must maintain identical mounting geometry and termination style.

Contact Material and Finish: Copper alloy with gold plating ensures electrical performance, corrosion resistance, and signal integrity. These specifications must be preserved.

Operating Temperature Range: The -30°C to 85°C specification defines the environmental operating envelope. Substitute parts must support this full temperature range.

The substitute part 5-1571999-0 meets all critical parameters for direct substitution with the ADPA06.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: Part number 5-1571999-0 is the direct equivalent for ADPA06 replacement applications.

Justification:

The substitute part 5-1571999-0 maintains functional and mechanical equivalence across all critical parameters: SPST circuit configuration, 6-position count, piano actuator mechanism, through-hole mounting, and identical series designation (ADPA). Both components are manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches, ensuring design consistency and manufacturing quality standards.

Product Status Advantage: The ADPA06 carries Obsolete status, while 5-1571999-0 is Active production status. This transition ensures long-term component availability and supply chain continuity for new production builds and field service applications.

Compliance Improvement: The substitute part 5-1571999-0 achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the ADPA06 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements, the substitute part satisfies current environmental and material restriction directives.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute part is supplied in Tube packaging, which may differ from the original ADPA06 packaging format. Verify packaging compatibility with receiving, storage, and assembly processes.

Electrical and Mechanical Specifications: Both parts operate within the same electrical envelope (25mA, 24VDC) and mechanical life cycle (1,000 cycles). No circuit redesign or mechanical modification is required for substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5-1571999-0 substitute directly replace the ADPA06 in existing PCB designs?
