Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the EVQ-P7L01K is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Circuit configuration (SPST-NO), contact rating (0.05A @ 12VDC), switch function (Off-Mom momentary operation), mounting type (Surface Mount, Right Angle), actuator type (Rectangular Button), actuator orientation (Side Actuated), termination style (Gull Wing), outline dimensions (4.70mm x 2.90mm), operating force (160gf), switch travel (0.20mm), operating temperature range (-20°C ~ 70°C), and mechanical life (100,000 Cycles).

The EVQ-P7L01P qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical values across all these parameters. The primary distinction is product status: EVQ-P7L01K is obsolete while EVQ-P7L01P is active, with improved availability and compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EVQ-P7L01P is the direct functional equivalent of the EVQ-P7L01K. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the EVQP7 series. The EVQ-P7L01P is recommended for new designs and production continuity due to its active product status and ROHS3 compliance certification. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical MSL ratings. The EVQ-P7L01P offers superior supply chain availability with 16,903 units in stock compared to the obsolete EVQ-P7L01K.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EVQ-P7L01P directly replace EVQ-P7L01K in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters, including circuit configuration, contact rating, mounting type, actuator specifications, and operating characteristics. PCB layout and component placement require no modification.

Q: What is the primary reason to transition from EVQ-P7L01K to EVQ-P7L01P?

A: The EVQ-P7L01K is obsolete, creating supply chain risk. The EVQ-P7L01P is an active product with confirmed availability and ROHS3 compliance certification, ensuring long-term sourcing capability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The EVQ-P7L01K packaging is not specified in available documentation. The EVQ-P7L01P is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel packaging options, providing flexibility for both prototype and production quantities.

Q: Do compliance certifications differ between these parts?

A: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status. The EVQ-P7L01P includes ROHS3 compliance certification. Both components carry identical MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings and ECCN EAR99 classification.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences?

A: No. Both components specify identical contact ratings (0.05A @ 12VDC), operating force (160gf), switch travel (0.20mm), mechanical life (100,000 cycles), and operating temperature range (-20°C ~ 70°C).
