Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TS02CKE are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the TS series family. The substitution criteria are:

• Circuit configuration: SPST
• Current and voltage ratings: 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC
• Actuator specifications: Standard type, 3.10mm length, polyamide material
• Contact properties: Copper alloy with gold finish
• Mounting and termination: Through hole with PC pin termination
• Operating temperature range: -30°C to 85°C
• Switch travel distance: 3.05mm
• Electrical life: 30,000 cycles
• Environmental compliance: RoHS and REACH status

The TS02CPE meets all these parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TS02CPE is the direct substitute for the obsolete TS02CKE. Both components share identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and contact specifications. The primary distinction is product status: the TS02CKE is obsolete while the TS02CPE maintains active production status. Both parts maintain equivalent RoHS and REACH compliance certifications, ensuring regulatory alignment. The TS02CPE is available in higher inventory quantities, supporting production continuity and supply chain reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TS02CPE be used as a direct replacement for TS02CKE in existing designs?

A: Yes. The TS02CPE is electrically and mechanically identical to the TS02CKE across all specified parameters, including voltage ratings, current capacity, actuator dimensions, contact materials, and operating temperature range. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between TS02CKE and TS02CPE?

A: Both parts maintain equivalent environmental compliance. The TS02CKE carries ROHS3 certification while the TS02CPE carries RoHS certification. Both are REACH Unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99. Regulatory requirements are satisfied by either component.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The TS02CKE is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing. The TS02CPE maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability for new designs and production runs.

Q: Are the through-hole PC pin terminations identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both components use identical PC pin termination specifications and through-hole mounting configurations, ensuring compatibility with existing PCB layouts and assembly processes.

Q: What is the base product number for these components?

A: Both TS02CKE and TS02CPE belong to the TS02 base product family within the C&K TS series slide switch line.
