Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between CS-4-22YA and CS-4-22YTB is valid based on the following criteria:

Both parts share identical electrical specifications: DPDT circuit, 2-position configuration, 100mA current rating, and 16VDC voltage rating. Both maintain the same physical dimensions (0.197" length, 0.091" height above board, 0.051" pitch), contact material (copper alloy with gold finish), operating temperature range (-25°C to 70°C), and electrical life (200 cycles).

The primary difference between these parts is packaging and termination style. CS-4-22YA uses J Lead termination in standard packaging, while CS-4-22YTB uses Gull Wing termination in Tape & Reel packaging. Both termination styles are compatible with standard surface mount assembly processes. The substitution is valid when the receiving application can accommodate either termination geometry and the assembly process supports the available packaging format.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both CS-4-22YA and CS-4-22YTB are active production parts from Nidec Components Corporation with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on assembly process requirements and packaging availability.

CS-4-22YA with J Lead termination is suitable for applications using standard surface mount assembly equipment configured for J Lead geometry. CS-4-22YTB with Gull Wing termination and Tape & Reel packaging is appropriate for high-volume production environments utilizing automated pick-and-place equipment with tape feeder capability.

Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification. CS-4-22YTB carries explicit ROHS3 compliance certification. The MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) for both parts indicates no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CS-4-22YTB replace CS-4-22YA in existing designs?

A: Yes, provided the PCB layout and assembly process accommodate Gull Wing termination geometry instead of J Lead. The electrical and mechanical performance are identical.

Q: What is the difference between J Lead and Gull Wing termination?

A: J Lead termination features a lead that forms a J-shape, suitable for standard surface mount pads. Gull Wing termination features leads that extend outward in a wing-like configuration, also compatible with surface mount assembly but requiring different pad geometry. Both are industry-standard surface mount termination styles.

Q: Does packaging format affect component performance?

A: No. Standard packaging and Tape & Reel packaging contain identical components. Packaging format affects only handling, storage, and assembly process compatibility. Tape & Reel packaging is optimized for automated assembly lines, while standard packaging is suitable for manual or semi-automated processes.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are REACH Unaffected and carry EAR99 export classification. CS-4-22YTB includes explicit ROHS3 compliance certification. Both parts have MSL 1 rating, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity protection.

Q: What determines substitutability for this rotary DIP switch?

A: Substitutability is determined by matching circuit configuration (DPDT), position count (2), current rating (100mA), voltage rating (16VDC), actuator type (rotary for tool), contact material and finish (copper alloy with gold), physical dimensions, operating temperature range (-25°C to 70°C), and electrical life (200 cycles). Termination style and packaging format are secondary considerations dependent on assembly process capability.
