TPB11CGPC0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TPB11CGPC0 is a pushbutton switch manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches, configured as a Standard SPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw - Normally Open) momentary contact switch. This component operates at 0.4VA with voltage ratings of 20V AC/DC and features a round plunger actuator with black cap, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination.

The TPB11CGPC0 carries an obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure component availability, and support ongoing production and repair requirements for systems utilizing this switch configuration.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TPB11CGPC0 are qualified based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The following parameters must remain constant across all substitutes:

• Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
• Switch function: Off-Mom (momentary contact)
• Current rating: 0.4VA (AC/DC)
• Voltage ratings: 20V AC and 20V DC
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Actuator type: Round, Plunger
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Operating temperature range: -30°C to 65°C
• Electrical life: 100,000 Cycles

Substitute parts may differ in product status (active versus obsolete), packaging configuration, actuator cap color, and compliance certifications. These variations do not affect functional equivalence in applications requiring the specified electrical and mechanical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts—1825097-1 and TPB11CGPC2—provide functional equivalence to the obsolete TPB11CGPC0 across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Selection between substitutes should be based on the following factors:

1825097-1: This substitute carries Active product status and ROHS3 compliance certification. The MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity constraints. This part is suitable for applications requiring current compliance certifications and long-term supply chain stability.

TPB11CGPC2: This substitute maintains the same base product number (TPB11) as the original part and carries Active product status. The primary distinction is the red actuator cap color compared to the black cap of the original TPB11CGPC0. This part is suitable for applications where actuator color differentiation is required for operational or visual identification purposes.

Both substitutes are manufactured by the same supplier (TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches) and share identical electrical specifications, voltage ratings, current capacity, and operating temperature ranges with the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1825097-1 and TPB11CGPC2 be used interchangeably with TPB11CGPC0?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent to TPB11CGPC0. They share identical circuit configuration (SPST-NO), current rating (0.4VA AC/DC), voltage ratings (20V AC/DC), mounting type (Through Hole), actuator type (Round Plunger), and termination style (PC Pin). The primary difference is actuator cap color: 1825097-1 retains the black cap, while TPB11CGPC2 features a red cap. Selection depends on application requirements for actuator color identification.

Q: What is the significance of the Active product status for substitute parts?

A: Active product status indicates ongoing manufacturing and availability from the supplier. The TPB11CGPC0 carries Obsolete status, meaning it is no longer manufactured. Substitutes with Active status ensure continued component availability for new production runs and field replacements without supply chain interruption.

Q: Does 1825097-1 offer compliance advantages over TPB11CGPC2?

A: 1825097-1 carries ROHS3 compliance certification and an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. TPB11CGPC2 lists RoHS status as Not applicable. For applications subject to environmental or regulatory compliance requirements, 1825097-1 provides documented compliance certification.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: Both substitute parts are supplied in Bulk packaging. The original TPB11CGPC0 packaging designation is listed as "-" (unspecified). Bulk packaging is standard for both active substitutes and does not affect functional performance.

Q: Can actuator cap color affect circuit performance?

A: No. Actuator cap color is a visual identification feature only and does not affect electrical performance, switching characteristics, or circuit operation. Color selection is based on application requirements for operator identification or panel aesthetics.

Q: What electrical parameters must remain constant when selecting a substitute?

A: The following parameters must match the original TPB11CGPC0: SPST-NO circuit configuration, Off-Mom switch function, 0.4VA current rating (AC/DC), 20V voltage ratings (both AC and DC), Through Hole mounting, Round Plunger actuator, PC Pin termination, -30°C to 65°C operating temperature range, and 100,000 cycle electrical life rating.
