LED CBI 5MM GREEN TH PC MNT 5332H5

Part Overview

The VCC 5332H5 is a Circuit Board Indicator LED designed for through-hole mounting applications. This single green LED features a 5mm T-1 3/4 form factor with a round domed top lens and operates at 2.2V with a 20mA current rating. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of equivalent substitute components for ongoing design requirements and procurement needs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the VCC 5332H5 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain consistent across equivalent components:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Color: Green (563nm peak wavelength)
• Voltage Rating: 2.2V
• Current Rating: 20mA
• Lens Size: 5mm, T-1 3/4
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Configuration: Single LED

Allowable Variations:

• Millicandela Rating: The substitute part may differ in brightness output
• Lens Type: Variations between tinted and diffused finishes are acceptable
• Viewing Angle: Differences in viewing angle are permissible based on application requirements

The Dialight 5505204F meets all mandatory matching parameters and is classified as an active product, providing a viable substitute for the obsolete VCC 5332H5.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Dialight 5505204F is a direct substitute for the obsolete VCC 5332H5 based on electrical and mechanical compatibility. Both components share identical voltage ratings (2.2V), current specifications (20mA), wavelength characteristics (563nm), and physical form factors (5mm T-1 3/4 through-hole).

The primary difference is the millicandela rating, where the Dialight part provides 34mcd compared to the VCC part's 100mcd. This reduced brightness output is a result of the diffused lens type employed by Dialight, which distributes light over a wider area. The Dialight part specifies a 50° viewing angle, providing broader light distribution characteristics.

Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings (MSL 1), ensuring compatibility with standard PCB assembly processes. The Dialight 5505204F is currently in active production status, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete VCC part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Dialight 5505204F directly replace the VCC 5332H5 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (2.2V, 20mA) and physical form factors (5mm T-1 3/4 through-hole). The components are mechanically and electrically interchangeable at the circuit level.

Q: What is the significance of the millicandela rating difference?

A: The VCC 5332H5 provides 100mcd brightness while the Dialight 5505204F provides 34mcd. This difference reflects the lens design: the VCC part uses a tinted lens that concentrates light, while the Dialight part uses a diffused tinted lens that spreads light over a wider area. Selection depends on application requirements for brightness intensity versus viewing angle distribution.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings. Both are suitable for standard PCB assembly and storage conditions.

Q: What is the viewing angle difference?

A: The Dialight 5505204F specifies a 50° viewing angle. The VCC 5332H5 does not provide a viewing angle specification in the available data. The Dialight part's specified viewing angle reflects its diffused lens design, which provides broader light distribution.

Q: Why is the VCC 5332H5 classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured by VCC. The Dialight 5505204F, classified as active, represents the current production alternative for equivalent green 5mm through-hole LED applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences?

A: The Dialight 5505204F is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format should be confirmed with procurement requirements for specific application needs.
