Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the KB06KW01-05-JC is constrained by the following critical parameters:

• Voltage Rating: 5V operation
• Current Rating: 115mA maximum
• Termination Style: Solder Lug connection
• Panel Cutout Dimensions: 0.48" (12.19mm) round opening
• Lens Configuration: Red diffused lens with rectangle flat-top style
• Type Category: Incandescent technology

The substitute part YB06KW01-5C05-JC is identified from the same manufacturer (NKK Switches) and shares the panel indicator functional category. However, this substitute is classified as a panel indicator with active product status, indicating current availability and ongoing manufacturer support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between the KB06KW01-05-JC and YB06KW01-5C05-JC should be based on the following factors:

The KB06KW01-05-JC is obsolete, with no ongoing manufacturer support. The YB06KW01-5C05-JC maintains active product status from NKK Switches, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

Both components share ROHS3 compliance and identical MSL ratings (1 - Unlimited), indicating equivalent environmental handling and regulatory standing.

The YB06KW01-5C05-JC is classified as a panel indicator with active production status, making it the preferred selection for new designs and ongoing maintenance applications where component continuity is required.

Electrical parameter alignment (voltage, current, and termination specifications) must be verified against the complete technical datasheets prior to final component selection, as the substitute part data provided does not include all detailed electrical ratings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the KB06KW01-05-JC considered obsolete? A: The KB06KW01-05-JC is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer, indicating discontinued production and limited availability. The YB06KW01-5C05-JC maintains active status with ongoing manufacturer support.
