TL3301AF100QJ Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TL3301AF100QJ is an active SPST-NO tactile switch manufactured by E-Switch, designed for surface mount applications with a 0.05A @ 12VDC contact rating. This component is specified for off-momentary operation with top actuation and polyamide actuator material. The part is in active production status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility can be maintained across the allowed parameter ranges for this switch category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TL3301AF100QJ is determined by the following criteria:

• Electrical Compatibility: Circuit configuration (SPST-NO), switch function (Off-Mom), and contact rating (0.05A @ 12VDC) must be identical
• Mechanical Compatibility: Mounting type (Surface Mount), actuator orientation (Top Actuated), and termination style (J Lead) must match
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1 are required
• Operational Range: Operating temperature range must encompass or equal the specified range

The substitute parts 95CW06C3JT and 95CW06E5JT from Grayhill Inc. meet these core criteria. Variations in actuator height, operating force, switch travel, and actuator material are within allowable tolerances for this product category and do not prevent functional substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both Grayhill substitute parts maintain full compliance with RoHS3 and REACH requirements. The TL3301AF100QJ and both substitute options are active production components with unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings.

95CW06C3JT features a lower actuator height (4.60mm) and higher operating force (260gf) compared to the original part, with extended mechanical life (500,000 cycles). This variant is packaged in Tube format.

95CW06E5JT provides actuator height (5.20mm) closer to the original specification with the highest operating force (360gf) among the three options, also with extended mechanical life (500,000 cycles). This variant is packaged in Tube format.

Selection between these substitutes depends on PCB clearance requirements and actuation force tolerance in the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 95CW06C3JT and 95CW06E5JT be used interchangeably with TL3301AF100QJ?

A: Both Grayhill parts maintain identical electrical specifications (SPST-NO, 0.05A @ 12VDC, Off-Mom function) and mechanical compatibility (Surface Mount, Top Actuated, J Lead termination). Differences in actuator height, operating force, and switch travel are within allowable tolerances for this switch category. Application-specific requirements for actuation force and PCB clearance must be evaluated.

Q: What are the key differences between the two Grayhill substitutes?

A: The primary difference is actuator height: 95CW06C3JT provides 4.60mm height, while 95CW06E5JT provides 5.20mm height. Operating force also differs: 95CW06C3JT requires 260gf versus 360gf for 95CW06E5JT. Both share identical electrical ratings, temperature range (-25°C ~ 70°C), and mechanical life (500,000 cycles).

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: Yes. TL3301AF100QJ is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, while both Grayhill substitutes (95CW06C3JT and 95CW06E5JT) are supplied in Tube packaging. Procurement and handling procedures may differ accordingly.

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

A: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). Compliance certifications are equivalent across all options.

Q: What is the impact of different actuator materials?

A: TL3301AF100QJ uses polyamide (PA/Nylon) actuator material, while both Grayhill substitutes use silicone rubber. Both materials are suitable for surface mount tactile switch applications. The Grayhill parts include washable features.
