Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the D6C10 LFS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
  • Switch function: Off-Mom (momentary operation)
  • Current rating: 100mA DC
  • Voltage rating: 32V DC
  • Mounting type: Through Hole
  • Keyswitch type with square button actuator
  • Termination style: PC Pin
  • Operating temperature range: -20°C to 85°C
  • Electrical life: 250,000 cycles
  • Tactile feedback feature

The D6C10 F1 LFS qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: D6C10 F1 LFS is active, whereas D6C10 LFS is obsolete.
