Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The D6C60 LFS has one direct substitute within the C&K D6 series: D6C60 F1 LFS. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain identical:

• Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
• Switch function: Off-Mom (Momentary)
• Current rating: 100mA DC
• Voltage rating: 32V DC
• Actuator type: Square, Button
• Actuator color: Blue
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Operating temperature range: -20°C to 85°C
• Electrical life: 250,000 Cycles
• Tactile feedback feature

The D6C60 F1 LFS maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications of the obsolete D6C60 LFS while offering active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The D6C60 F1 LFS is the direct substitute for the obsolete D6C60 LFS. Both parts are manufactured by C&K within the same D6 series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The D6C60 F1 LFS offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts meet RoHS compliance requirements, with the substitute offering ROHS3 certification. The packaging difference (Tray versus Bulk) does not affect functional compatibility and may provide logistical benefits depending on procurement requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the D6C60 F1 LFS be used as a direct replacement for the D6C60 LFS?

A: Yes. The D6C60 F1 LFS is a direct substitute. All electrical ratings (100mA at 32V DC), circuit configuration (SPST-NO), mechanical specifications (square blue button actuator, through-hole mounting), and performance characteristics (250,000 cycle electrical life, tactile feedback) are identical.

Q: What is the difference between the D6C60 LFS and D6C60 F1 LFS?

A: The primary differences are product status and packaging. The D6C60 LFS is obsolete, while the D6C60 F1 LFS is active. The D6C60 F1 LFS is supplied in Tray packaging, whereas the D6C60 LFS was supplied in bulk. RoHS certification has been updated to ROHS3 for the substitute part.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the D6C60 F1 LFS for the D6C60 LFS?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts share identical pinout, voltage/current ratings, actuator dimensions, and mounting specifications. Direct board-level substitution is possible without design modifications.

Q: Does the packaging change from Bulk to Tray affect the component's performance?

A: No. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. The change from Bulk to Tray packaging is a supply and handling consideration only.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The D6C60 LFS is RoHS Compliant, and the D6C60 F1 LFS is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet RoHS requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.
