Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 5218089F are qualified based on the following criteria:

Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage (Vf) range of 1.9V to 2.2V, test current of 20mA, and amber wavelength output (589.5nm to 594nm peak wavelength) ensure functional equivalence in indicator circuits.

Mechanical Compatibility: Through-hole mounting configuration, 5mm radial package format, and round domed lens style maintain physical interchangeability in PCB layouts designed for the original part.

Optical Characteristics: Clear lens transparency and amber color specification are maintained across all substitutes. Millicandela ratings and viewing angles may vary within application tolerance ranges.

Compliance & Status: All substitute parts maintain Active product status, RoHS3 compliance, and REACH unaffected designation, ensuring regulatory equivalence for production use.

The following Broadcom Limited parts meet these substitution criteria:

• HLMP-C208-S0000 (3000mcd, 8° viewing angle)
• HLMP-C225-O0000 (800mcd, 25° viewing angle)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

5218089F (Dialight): Primary choice for applications requiring 4350mcd brightness output with 30° viewing angle. Active product status and RoHS3 compliance support current production requirements.

HLMP-C208-S0000 (Broadcom Limited): Suitable for applications where 3000mcd brightness is acceptable and narrow 8° viewing angle is required. Forward voltage of 1.9V requires circuit verification for compatibility with 2.2V design specifications. Active status and RoHS3 compliance maintained.

HLMP-C225-O0000 (Broadcom Limited): Applicable for applications tolerating 800mcd brightness with 25° viewing angle. Forward voltage of 1.9V requires circuit verification. Active status and RoHS3 compliance maintained. Lower brightness rating may limit visibility in high-ambient-light environments.

All substitute parts maintain through-hole radial package compatibility and amber wavelength specifications within the 589.5nm to 594nm range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HLMP-C208-S0000 or HLMP-C225-O0000 be used as direct drop-in replacements for 5218089F?

A: Both Broadcom parts are mechanically compatible through-hole radial packages with matching 5mm lens size and round domed lens style. However, the forward voltage differs (1.9V vs. 2.2V), requiring circuit analysis to confirm compatibility with existing current-limiting resistor values and power supply specifications.

Q: What are the key differences in optical performance between these parts?

A: The 5218089F provides 4350mcd at 30° viewing angle. HLMP-C208-S0000 delivers 3000mcd at 8° (narrower beam), while HLMP-C225-O0000 provides 800mcd at 25°. Selection depends on required brightness and viewing angle for the specific application.

Q: Are all parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The 5218089F, HLMP-C208-S0000, and HLMP-C225-O0000 are all RoHS3 compliant with REACH unaffected status, suitable for regulated production environments.

Q: What is the impact of the 0.3V forward voltage difference between 5218089F and the Broadcom substitutes?

A: The 5218089F operates at 2.2V while both Broadcom parts operate at 1.9V. This 0.3V difference affects circuit design, particularly current-limiting resistor calculations. Applications must verify that existing circuit designs accommodate this voltage variation or require resistor adjustment.

Q: Do all parts use the same wavelength specification?

A: All parts emit amber light in the 589.5nm to 594nm range. The 5218089F has dominant wavelength of 589.5nm with 590nm peak, while both Broadcom parts have 590nm dominant with 594nm peak. These variations are within standard amber LED specifications.
