Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete VCC 5335H5 is determined by alignment of the following critical parameters:

Optical Characteristics: Color (green), wavelength range (562nm baseline), lens type (diffused), and lens geometry (5mm round with domed top) must remain consistent to preserve visual appearance and light distribution in the application.

Electrical Characteristics: Forward voltage (2.2V) and forward current rating must be compatible with existing circuit designs. The substitute part 5505205010F operates at 2.2V with 25mA forward current, representing a 5mA reduction from the original 30mA specification.

Mechanical Characteristics: Lens size (5mm, T-1 3/4) and mounting configuration must accommodate existing PCB layouts and mechanical assemblies.

Compliance & Regulatory: RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status ensure regulatory alignment with current manufacturing standards.

The Dialight 5505205010F meets these substitution criteria while maintaining active product status and full regulatory compliance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Dialight 5505205010F is the identified equivalent substitute for the obsolete VCC 5335H5 based on the following engineering criteria:

Regulatory Compliance: Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring compatibility with current manufacturing and environmental regulations.

Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage specification (2.2V) is identical between the main part and substitute. The forward current differential (30mA versus 25mA) represents a 5mA reduction, which is accommodated through standard current-limiting resistor adjustment in the circuit design.

Optical Performance: Peak wavelength values (562nm versus 563nm) are within acceptable green LED spectral range. The substitute part delivers 34mcd versus the original 30mcd, providing equivalent or enhanced luminous intensity for circuit board indicator applications.

Mechanical Fit: Identical lens size (5mm, T-1 3/4) and geometry (round with domed top) ensure direct mechanical compatibility with existing PCB footprints and mechanical assemblies.

Product Availability: The substitute part maintains active product status with documented inventory availability, ensuring long-term supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Dialight 5505205010F directly replace the VCC 5335H5 without circuit modification?

A: Direct mechanical and electrical substitution is possible. The 5mA forward current reduction requires verification that existing current-limiting resistors in the circuit accommodate the lower current specification. Forward voltage remains constant at 2.2V.

Q: What is the significance of the wavelength difference between 562nm and 563nm?

A: The 1nm wavelength difference is negligible for visual perception in green LED applications. Both wavelengths fall within the standard green LED spectral range and produce visually identical color appearance.

Q: Why does the substitute part have higher millicandela rating (34mcd versus 30mcd)?

A: The Dialight 5505205010F delivers enhanced luminous intensity at the same forward current specification. This represents improved optical efficiency and provides equivalent or superior brightness for circuit board indicator functions.

Q: Is the 50° viewing angle specification of the substitute part a limiting factor?

A: The 50° viewing angle is a characteristic of the Dialight diffused lens design. This specification is typical for 5mm diffused LEDs and is suitable for standard circuit board indicator applications where viewing angle is not a critical constraint.

Q: What packaging format is the substitute part supplied in?

A: The Dialight 5505205010F is supplied in bulk packaging with through-hole mounting configuration, consistent with standard PCB assembly processes for circuit board indicator applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the VCC 5335H5 and Dialight 5505205010F maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for current manufacturing environments.
