EVQ-22707K Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EVQ-22707K is a tactile switch manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components, classified as SPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw - Normally Open) with a contact rating of 0.02A at 15VDC. This through-hole mounted switch features top actuation with a 6.00mm x 6.00mm outline and 7.00mm actuator height. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing design support, maintenance, and production continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EVQ-22707K is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
• Switch function: Off-Mom (Momentary)
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Actuator orientation: Top Actuated
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Operating force: 260gf
• Switch travel: 0.25mm
• Operating temperature range: -20°C ~ 70°C

Allowable Variations:

• Contact rating voltage and current may differ, provided the substitute part meets or exceeds the application requirements
• Outline dimensions may vary within manufacturing tolerances
• Actuator height may differ by ±1.00mm
• Mechanical life may exceed the original specification
• Product status may transition from obsolete to active
• Packaging format may differ (Tape & Box, Cut Tape, etc.)

The substitute parts TL59CF260Q and TL59FF260Q, both manufactured by E-Switch, satisfy all primary compatibility criteria while offering enhanced specifications in mechanical life (100,000 cycles versus 50,000 cycles) and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TL59CF260Q and TL59FF260Q are qualified substitutes for the obsolete EVQ-22707K based on functional equivalence and compliance status.

TL59FF260Q is the preferred substitute when actuator height matching is critical. This part maintains the 7.00mm actuator height specification identical to the original EVQ-22707K, minimizing mechanical clearance considerations in existing PCB designs. The Cut Tape packaging format provides flexibility for lower-volume applications.

TL59CF260Q is suitable for applications where the 8.00mm actuator height is mechanically acceptable. This variant offers Tape & Box packaging, which may be advantageous for higher-volume production environments. The 1.00mm height increase requires verification of available vertical clearance in the end application.

Both substitutes provide enhanced mechanical life (100,000 cycles) compared to the original specification (50,000 cycles) and maintain active product status with ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term supply chain availability and regulatory alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TL59CF260Q and TL59FF260Q be used interchangeably with EVQ-22707K?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent substitutes. The primary difference is actuator height: TL59FF260Q matches the original 7.00mm height, while TL59CF260Q has 8.00mm height. Selection depends on available vertical clearance in your PCB assembly.

Q: What is the impact of the higher contact rating (0.05A @ 12VDC) in the substitute parts?

A: The substitute parts have higher current capacity and lower voltage rating compared to the original (0.02A @ 15VDC). For applications operating at or below 0.02A and 12VDC, the substitutes are fully compatible. Applications requiring the full 15VDC rating should be evaluated for voltage margin requirements.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when switching from EVQ-22707K to TL59CF260Q or TL59FF260Q?

A: Yes. TL59CF260Q is supplied in Tape & Box format, while TL59FF260Q is supplied in Cut Tape format. Verify compatibility with your procurement and assembly processes. Both maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Q: Why is the EVQ-22707K obsolete, and what is the supply status of the substitutes?

A: The EVQ-22707K is no longer manufactured by Panasonic. Both TL59CF260Q and TL59FF260Q are active products from E-Switch with confirmed inventory availability, ensuring reliable supply for new designs and legacy support.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet the same environmental and compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both TL59CF260Q and TL59FF260Q are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the environmental specifications of the original EVQ-22707K. TL59CF260Q additionally carries REACH Unaffected status.
