ADTSA61KV Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ADTSA61KV is an active-status tactile switch manufactured by APEM Inc., designed for SPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw - Normally Open) applications. This component operates at 0.05A @ 12VDC with side actuation and right-angle through-hole mounting. The switch is specified for general-purpose momentary switching applications across an operating temperature range of -25°C to 70°C. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical ratings, mechanical mounting configurations, and compliance certifications align with the original specification, enabling direct replacement in circuit designs without functional compromise.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ADTSA61KV is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Equivalence: Contact rating of 0.05A @ 12VDC and SPST-NO circuit configuration
• Mechanical Compatibility: Through-hole, right-angle mounting with PC pin termination and 7.40mm x 6.55mm outline dimensions
• Functional Match: Off-Mom (momentary) switch function with side actuation
• Environmental Compliance: Operating temperature range of -25°C to 70°C, ROHS3 compliance, and REACH unaffected status
• Actuator Material: Polyamide (PA) / Nylon construction

The substitute part 95C06B3RAT from Grayhill Inc. meets all critical substitution criteria. Variations in actuator length (3.86mm vs. 3.15mm), operating force (160gf vs. 100gf), and mechanical life specifications do not preclude substitution when the PCB layout and actuation force requirements accommodate these differences.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ADTSA61KV and 95C06B3RAT are active-status components with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certification, ensuring regulatory alignment for current and future applications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Supply Chain Availability: The 95C06B3RAT offers 1079 units in stock versus 653 units for the ADTSA61KV, providing greater availability for high-volume production requirements.
• Actuator Force Tolerance: The 95C06B3RAT operates at 160gf compared to 100gf for the ADTSA61KV. Circuit designs requiring lower actuation force should retain the ADTSA61KV; designs tolerant of higher actuation force may use the 95C06B3RAT.
• Actuator Length Variation: The 95C06B3RAT actuator extends 3.86mm from the PCB versus 3.15mm for the ADTSA61KV. PCB enclosure clearance must accommodate this 0.71mm difference.
• Mechanical Life Specification: The 95C06B3RAT specifies 1,000,000 cycles of mechanical life, providing quantified durability data for applications requiring cycle-life documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 95C06B3RAT directly replace the ADTSA61KV without PCB modification?

A: Direct replacement is possible if the PCB layout accommodates the 3.86mm actuator length of the 95C06B3RAT (versus 3.15mm for the ADTSA61KV) and the enclosure provides sufficient clearance. The identical 7.40mm x 6.55mm outline and PC pin termination ensure mechanical fit compatibility.

Q: What is the impact of the 160gf operating force on the 95C06B3RAT compared to the 100gf of the ADTSA61KV?

A: The higher operating force of the 95C06B3RAT requires greater finger pressure to actuate. Applications with user interface requirements for low actuation force should retain the ADTSA61KV. Applications where higher actuation force is acceptable or beneficial for preventing accidental activation may use the 95C06B3RAT.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same voltage and current ratings?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for 0.05A @ 12VDC and operate across the identical temperature range of -25°C to 70°C, ensuring electrical equivalence for the specified application.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The ADTSA61KV is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the 95C06B3RAT is supplied in Bag packaging. Both are suitable for through-hole assembly; packaging selection depends on production workflow and inventory management requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet current regulatory compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the ADTSA61KV and 95C06B3RAT are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance regulations for electronic components.
