D6R60 LFS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The D6R60 LFS is a pushbutton switch manufactured by C&K, classified as SPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw - Normally Open) with a keyswitch design for through-hole mounting. This component is rated for 0.1A at 32V DC and features tactile feedback with a blue round button actuator. The D6R60 LFS is currently listed as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute parts essential for ongoing design support and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the D6R60 LFS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Specifications: Current rating (100mA DC), voltage rating (32V DC), and circuit configuration (SPST-NO) must remain identical
• Mechanical Compatibility: Mounting type (through hole), termination style (PC pin), and actuator type (round button) must match
• Functional Characteristics: Switch function (Off-Mom momentary operation) and tactile feedback feature must be preserved
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance, REACH status, and moisture sensitivity level must be maintained
• Operating Conditions: Temperature range (-20°C to 85°C) and electrical life (250,000 cycles) must be supported

The D6R60 F1 LFS qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains identical electrical ratings, mechanical configuration, and functional characteristics while offering active product status and improved packaging (tray format).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The D6R60 F1 LFS is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete D6R60 LFS. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring pin-for-pin and functional compatibility in existing circuit designs.

The D6R60 F1 LFS offers the following advantages:

• Active Product Status: Currently in production and supported by C&K, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability
• Enhanced Compliance: ROHS3 certification provides updated regulatory compliance beyond the original RoHS standard
• Improved Packaging: Tray packaging format facilitates automated assembly and inventory management compared to bulk packaging
• Identical Performance: All electrical ratings, operating temperature range, and mechanical life specifications remain unchanged

For applications requiring the D6R60 LFS, the D6R60 F1 LFS is the recommended replacement without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the D6R60 F1 LFS be used as a direct replacement for the D6R60 LFS without PCB modifications?

A: Yes. The D6R60 F1 LFS maintains identical pin configuration, electrical ratings (100mA at 32V DC), and mechanical dimensions. No PCB layout changes are required.

Q: What is the difference between the D6R60 LFS and D6R60 F1 LFS?

A: The primary differences are product status and packaging. The D6R60 LFS is obsolete with bulk packaging, while the D6R60 F1 LFS is an active product supplied in tray format. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these two part numbers?

A: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status. The D6R60 F1 LFS carries ROHS3 certification, representing updated regulatory alignment. Both parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity.

Q: What is the electrical life specification for this switch?

A: Both the D6R60 LFS and D6R60 F1 LFS are rated for 250,000 electrical cycles under the specified operating conditions.

Q: Can this switch be used in applications outside the -20°C to 85°C temperature range?

A: No. Both parts are specified for operation within -20°C to 85°C. Applications requiring extended temperature ranges require alternative component selection.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The D6R60 LFS was supplied in bulk packaging. The D6R60 F1 LFS is supplied in tray packaging, which is standard for current production.
