ED G SC 0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ED G SC 0 is a tactile switch manufactured by C&K, classified as SPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw - Normally Open) with a contact rating of 0.05A at 100VAC/DC. This surface mount component features a snap dome actuator with top actuation and is designed for applications requiring low-force tactile switching. The part is currently listed as obsolete, making identification of compatible substitutes essential for ongoing production and maintenance applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ED G SC 0 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: SPST-NO topology must be maintained
• Contact Rating: 0.05A @ 100VAC/DC electrical specification
• Actuator Type & Orientation: Snap dome, top actuated configuration
• Mounting Type: Surface mount (SMD) with SMD tab termination
• Physical Dimensions: Actuator height of 1.20mm and switch travel of 0.30mm
• Mechanical Performance: 240gf operating force and 1,000,000 cycle mechanical life
• Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 85°C operating specification

The substitute part EDGSC0LFG maintains identical electrical and mechanical characteristics while offering improved product status and compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EDGSC0LFG is a direct functional equivalent to the ED G SC 0 with superior product lifecycle status. The original ED G SC 0 is obsolete, whereas EDGSC0LFG maintains active production status with current availability of 3,324 units in stock compared to 1,098 units of the obsolete variant.

From a compliance perspective, EDGSC0LFG offers ROHS3 compliance, addressing regulatory requirements for new designs and manufacturing environments where RoHS compliance is mandated. Both parts maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications.

All electrical and mechanical specifications are equivalent, including contact rating, actuator geometry, operating force, mechanical life, and temperature range. The packaging difference (tray for EDGSC0LFG versus unspecified for ED G SC 0) does not affect functional compatibility in surface mount assembly processes.

For new designs or replacement of obsolete inventory, EDGSC0LFG is the appropriate selection. For legacy systems currently using ED G SC 0, direct substitution is electrically and mechanically valid.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EDGSC0LFG be used as a direct replacement for ED G SC 0 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters including circuit configuration, contact rating, actuator type, dimensions, operating force, and temperature range. The substitution is valid for both new designs and legacy system maintenance.

Q: What is the primary advantage of EDGSC0LFG over ED G SC 0?

A: EDGSC0LFG is an active product with current manufacturing support and ROHS3 compliance certification. The ED G SC 0 is obsolete and non-compliant with RoHS regulations. EDGSC0LFG also offers superior inventory availability.

Q: Are there any packaging considerations when switching from ED G SC 0 to EDGSC0LFG?

A: EDGSC0LFG is supplied in tray packaging, which is standard for surface mount component distribution. This packaging format is compatible with automated pick-and-place assembly equipment used in standard SMD manufacturing processes.

Q: Do the parts have identical mechanical life specifications?

A: Yes. Both ED G SC 0 and EDGSC0LFG are rated for 1,000,000 mechanical cycles, ensuring equivalent durability and reliability in tactile switch applications.

Q: Are there any regulatory or compliance differences between these parts?

A: EDGSC0LFG meets ROHS3 compliance requirements, while ED G SC 0 is non-compliant. Both parts maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications. For applications subject to RoHS regulations, EDGSC0LFG is the required selection.
