FR01KC16H-06XL-S Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FR01KC16H-06XL-S is a 16-position hexadecimal complement rotary DIP switch manufactured by NKK Switches. This through-hole, right-angle mounted component operates at 100mA and 5VDC, designed for applications requiring discrete position selection via rotary shaft actuation. The part is currently active in production with 1072 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical ratings, mechanical configurations, and functional specifications align with the original component's design parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FR01KC16H-06XL-S is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Current rating of 100mA and voltage rating of 5VDC must be maintained
• Functional Configuration: 16-position hexadecimal circuit operation
• Mechanical Interface: Through-hole, right-angle mounting with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and 0.394" (10.00mm) height above board
• Actuator Design: Rotary shaft actuation with raised actuator level
• Contact Specifications: Copper alloy with gold finish
• Termination: PC pin termination style
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification

The SD-1111 manufactured by Nidec Components Corporation meets these core substitution criteria across all electrical and mechanical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the FR01KC16H-06XL-S and SD-1111 are active production components with ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification. Selection between these parts should be based on:

FR01KC16H-06XL-S (Primary): Select when NKK Switches supply chain preference is established or when the -25°C lower operating temperature limit is sufficient for the application. Current inventory of 1072 units supports immediate availability.

SD-1111 (Substitute): Select when extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) is required or when higher electrical life specification (20,000 steps versus 10,000 steps) provides design margin. Nidec Components inventory of 963 units supports alternative sourcing.

Both components satisfy identical electrical, mechanical, and regulatory requirements for 16-position hexadecimal rotary DIP switch applications at 100mA and 5VDC.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SD-1111 be used as a direct replacement for FR01KC16H-06XL-S in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical ratings (100mA, 5VDC), mechanical configuration (16-position, through-hole right-angle mounting, 0.100" pitch), and contact specifications (copper alloy with gold finish). PCB footprints and mounting hole patterns are compatible.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The SD-1111 provides extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C versus -25°C to 85°C) and higher electrical life rating (20,000 steps versus 10,000 steps). Both maintain identical functional specifications for hexadecimal circuit operation.

Q: Does packaging format affect substitution?

A: Packaging format (Tube for FR01KC16H-06XL-S, Bulk for SD-1111) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Packaging selection depends on procurement and assembly process requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both FR01KC16H-06XL-S and SD-1111 are ROHS3 compliant and classified as EAR99 for export purposes.

Q: Which part should be selected for low-temperature applications?

A: The SD-1111 supports operation down to -40°C, compared to -25°C for the FR01KC16H-06XL-S. For applications requiring extended low-temperature performance, SD-1111 is the appropriate selection.
