TL3301DF100QJ Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TL3301DF100QJ 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 a 100gf operating force and 13.00mm actuator height. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance, circuit configuration, and mechanical compatibility can be maintained within the allowed parameter tolerances for this product category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TL3301DF100QJ is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Circuit configuration must be SPST-NO
• Switch function must be Off-Mom
• Contact rating must be 0.05A @ 12VDC
• Mounting type must be Surface Mount
• Actuator orientation must be Top Actuated
• Termination style must be J Lead
• RoHS3 compliance required
• Product status must be Active

The substitute parts 95CW06C3JT and 95CW06E5JT (both Grayhill Inc.) satisfy all mandatory electrical and mechanical 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 95CW06C3JT and 95CW06E5JT are qualified substitutes for the TL3301DF100QJ based on active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection between substitute options depends on application-specific requirements for actuator height and operating force:

• 95CW06C3JT: 4.60mm actuator height, 260gf operating force
• 95CW06E5JT: 5.20mm actuator height, 360gf operating force

Both substitute parts provide extended mechanical life (500,000 cycles versus 100,000 cycles) and expanded operating temperature range (-25°C to 70°C versus -20°C to 70°C). Packaging differs between the main part (Tape & Reel) and substitutes (Tube).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 95CW06C3JT and 95CW06E5JT be used interchangeably with TL3301DF100QJ?

A: Both parts meet the mandatory electrical and mechanical substitution criteria: SPST-NO circuit, 0.05A @ 12VDC contact rating, surface mount configuration, top actuated orientation, and J Lead termination. Selection between them depends on actuator height and operating force requirements specific to your application.

Q: What are the differences in actuator height between these parts?

A: TL3301DF100QJ has a 13.00mm actuator height. The 95CW06C3JT provides 4.60mm height, and the 95CW06E5JT provides 5.20mm height. These differences may affect PCB clearance and user interface feel.

Q: How do operating force differences affect substitution?

A: TL3301DF100QJ specifies 100gf operating force. The 95CW06C3JT requires 260gf, and the 95CW06E5JT requires 360gf. Higher operating force may affect tactile feedback and actuation effort in end-use applications.

Q: Are there packaging considerations for these substitutes?

A: The main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. Both substitute parts are supplied in Tube packaging. Confirm packaging compatibility with your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Do the substitute parts have better mechanical durability?

A: Both 95CW06C3JT and 95CW06E5JT specify 500,000 mechanical cycles compared to 100,000 cycles for the TL3301DF100QJ. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and active product status.
