LED Circuit Board Indicator 5300H5LC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The VCC 5300H5LC is a green LED circuit board indicator designed for through-hole, right-angle mounting applications. This component features a 2.00mm diameter domed lens with a peak wavelength of 565nm and operates at 1.8V with 2mA current consumption. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives necessary for ongoing design support and production continuity. Active substitute components maintain the same optical and electrical characteristics while offering improved availability and current manufacturing status.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute identification for the 5300H5LC is based on the following critical parameters that define functional equivalence:

Optical Characteristics: Green color specification (565nm peak wavelength) and lens configuration (round domed top) establish the visual and directional output requirements.

Electrical Specifications: Operating voltage (1.8V nominal) and current consumption (2mA) define the power interface and circuit compatibility.

Mechanical Interface: Through-hole, right-angle mounting type ensures PCB layout compatibility and spatial fit within existing designs.

Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating confirm environmental and handling requirements are maintained.

The substitute part SSF-LXH100LGD-01 (Lumex Opto/Components Inc.) shares the same optical color, mounting configuration, and compliance certifications. However, this substitute exhibits higher electrical ratings (2.2V, 20mA) and increased brightness output (30mcd versus 2.3mcd), requiring circuit design verification for current-limiting resistor adjustment and voltage supply compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement: The SSF-LXH100LGD-01 is classified as active and maintains ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility with the obsolete 5300H5LC.

Design Considerations: The substitute part operates at higher voltage (2.2V versus 1.8V) and current (20mA versus 2mA) specifications. Circuit designs utilizing the 5300H5LC must be re-evaluated for current-limiting resistor values and power supply voltage compatibility. The increased lens size (5mm versus 2.00mm) and brightness output (30mcd versus 2.3mcd) require verification of PCB layout clearances and optical intensity requirements for the target application.

Compliance Status: Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), confirming suitability for standard manufacturing and storage environments without additional handling protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SSF-LXH100LGD-01 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the 5300H5LC?

A: The SSF-LXH100LGD-01 shares the same mounting type (through-hole, right-angle), color (green, 565nm), and compliance certifications. However, the larger lens size (5mm versus 2.00mm) and higher electrical ratings (2.2V/20mA versus 1.8V/2mA) require PCB layout verification and circuit resistor recalculation. Direct substitution without design review is not recommended.

Q: What are the key electrical differences between these parts?

A: The 5300H5LC operates at 1.8V with 2mA current consumption, while the SSF-LXH100LGD-01 requires 2.2V and 20mA. The substitute part delivers 30mcd brightness compared to 2.3mcd for the original. Current-limiting resistor values must be recalculated based on the target supply voltage and desired brightness level.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the 5300H5LC and SSF-LXH100LGD-01 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, confirming compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage requirements.

Q: What is the impact of the lens size difference?

A: The 5300H5LC features a 2.00mm diameter lens, while the SSF-LXH100LGD-01 has a 5mm (T-1 3/4) lens. This physical difference affects PCB footprint spacing, viewing angle (60° for the substitute), and optical intensity distribution. PCB layout must be verified to accommodate the larger component.

Q: Why is the 5300H5LC classified as obsolete?

A: The 5300H5LC is no longer in active production by VCC. The SSF-LXH100LGD-01 from Lumex Opto/Components Inc. is an active alternative that maintains the same optical color specification and mounting configuration while offering improved availability and current manufacturing support.
