Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TPB11CGVRA0 is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Circuit configuration must remain SPST-NO
• Current rating must be 0.4VA (AC/DC)
• Voltage ratings must be 20V AC and 20V DC minimum
• Switch function must be Off-Mom (momentary)
• Electrical life must meet or exceed 100,000 cycles

Mechanical Parameters:

• Mounting type must be through-hole, right-angle configuration
• Actuator type must be round plunger
• Termination style must be PC pin
• Operating temperature range must encompass -30°C to 65°C

Packaging Considerations:

• Substitute parts may differ in packaging format (bulk versus individual packaging)
• Packaging differences do not affect functional equivalence

The substitute part 1825097-8 satisfies all electrical and mechanical requirements for direct substitution with the TPB11CGVRA0.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TPB11CGVRA0 is classified as obsolete, necessitating transition to an active equivalent for new designs and ongoing procurement. The substitute part 1825097-8 provides complete functional equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters while offering the following advantages:

Product Status: Part 1825097-8 is active and available in production quantities (862 pcs in stock), ensuring supply chain continuity and long-term availability.

Compliance Status: Part 1825097-8 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in regulated markets. The original TPB11CGVRA0 carries undefined REACH status and non-applicable RoHS classification, indicating it predates current compliance frameworks.

Moisture Sensitivity: Part 1825097-8 is rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling.

Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.50.9031) classifications, confirming equivalent trade and export status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1825097-8 be used as a direct replacement for TPB11CGVRA0 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters. The circuit configuration, current and voltage ratings, switch function, mounting type, actuator design, and operating temperature range are identical. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the two part numbers?

A: The TPB11CGVRA0 is an obsolete part number from the TP series. The 1825097-8 is the active equivalent from the 1825097 series. Both are manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches and provide identical functionality.

Q: Does packaging format affect compatibility?

A: No. The TPB11CGVRA0 is supplied in standard packaging, while 1825097-8 is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect the electrical or mechanical performance of the component. Selection between packaging options depends on procurement and inventory management requirements.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 1825097-8 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, meeting current regulatory standards. The TPB11CGVRA0 predates these compliance frameworks. For applications subject to ROHS3 or REACH regulations, 1825097-8 is the required selection.

Q: What is the electrical life specification for these switches?

A: Both parts are rated for 100,000 electrical cycles, indicating the number of on-off operations the switch can perform within specification before degradation occurs.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges identical?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the range of -30°C to 65°C, ensuring equivalent thermal performance in the same application environments.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in new designs?

A: Yes. New designs should specify 1825097-8 due to its active product status and current compliance certifications. The part provides all functional requirements of the obsolete TPB11CGVRA0 with the advantage of ongoing manufacturer support and supply availability.
