Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the M83504/12-007 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Circuit configuration (SPST), number of positions (7), current rating (25mA), and voltage rating (24VDC) must remain identical.

Mechanical Parameters: Actuator type (Slide Standard), mounting method (Through Hole), pitch spacing (0.100"), and height above board (0.195") must match to ensure PCB compatibility and mechanical fit.

Material Specifications: Contact material (Copper Alloy) and contact finish (Gold) must be maintained to preserve electrical performance and reliability characteristics.

Environmental Specifications: Operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), mechanical life (2,000 cycles), and electrical life (2,000 cycles) establish the performance envelope for substitution.

The 90B07ST part number satisfies all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute for the M83504/12-007.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 90B07ST is the qualified substitute for the M83504/12-007 based on the following engineering criteria:

Functional Equivalence: All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, ensuring direct replacement capability without circuit redesign or PCB layout modification.

Product Status: The M83504/12-007 is classified as obsolete. The 90B07ST maintains active product status with Grayhill Inc., ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Regulatory Compliance: The 90B07ST achieves RoHS3 compliance, whereas the M83504/12-007 is RoHS non-compliant. Both parts maintain identical REACH unaffected status and EAR99 export classification.

Packaging Consideration: The M83504/12-007 is supplied with tape seal packaging. The 90B07ST is supplied in tube packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance and represents a procurement variation only.

Inventory Availability: The 90B07ST demonstrates higher current inventory levels (969 pieces) compared to the M83504/12-007 (762 pieces), supporting procurement continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 90B07ST be used as a direct replacement for the M83504/12-007 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 90B07ST is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the M83504/12-007 across all specified parameters. No circuit modifications or PCB layout changes are required for substitution.

Q: What is the difference between the M83504/12-007 and 90B07ST?

A: The parts are functionally identical. The primary differences are product status (M83504/12-007 is obsolete; 90B07ST is active), RoHS compliance (90B07ST is RoHS3 compliant; M83504/12-007 is non-compliant), and packaging format (tape seal versus tube).

Q: Does the packaging difference between tape seal and tube affect performance?

A: No. Packaging format is a procurement and handling specification only. It does not affect electrical performance, mechanical characteristics, or reliability of the switch component.

Q: Are there any electrical parameter differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are rated for 25mA at 24VDC with identical circuit configuration (SPST), position count (7), actuator type (Slide Standard), and contact specifications (Copper Alloy with Gold finish).

Q: What is the mechanical compatibility status?

A: Both parts are fully mechanically compatible. Pitch spacing (0.100"), height above board (0.195"), mounting type (Through Hole), and termination style (PC Pin) are identical, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Why should I transition from M83504/12-007 to 90B07ST?

A: The M83504/12-007 is obsolete. Transitioning to the 90B07ST ensures continued component availability, manufacturing support, and improved regulatory compliance (RoHS3).
