Dialight 5502207 LED Circuit Board Indicator - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Dialight 5502207 is a 5mm green LED circuit board indicator with right-angle through-hole mounting, rated at 2.1V and 10mA. This component is classified as obsolete, making substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. The part features a diffused lens with domed top, 563nm peak wavelength, and 10mcd brightness rating, suitable for standard indicator applications in electronic assemblies.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Dialight 5502207 are categorized into two groups based on electrical and mechanical compatibility:

Direct Substitutes (Dialight Series 550):

• 5502207F
• 5502208010F
• 5502212F

These parts maintain identical or equivalent electrical parameters: 2.1V voltage rating, 10mA current, 563nm wavelength, 10mcd brightness, 65° viewing angle, and diffused lens type. All feature 5mm T-1 3/4 through-hole right-angle mounting. These parts are active products with RoHS3 compliance, providing direct functional equivalence with improved availability.

Similar Substitutes (Cross-Manufacturer):

• SSF-LXH100GD-01 (Lumex Opto/Components Inc.)
• WP1533BQ/GD (Kingbright)

These parts share the same form factor (5mm through-hole right-angle mounting, diffused lens, round domed top) and green color specification. However, they operate at higher voltage (2.2V), higher current (20-25mA), and higher brightness (30-50mcd). These are suitable for applications where increased brightness is acceptable or beneficial, but circuit design modifications may be required to accommodate the different electrical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (No Circuit Modification Required):

Select from Dialight Series 550 direct substitutes: 5502207F, 5502208010F, or 5502212F. All three maintain identical electrical specifications (2.1V, 10mA, 10mcd) and mechanical form factor as the obsolete 5502207. These parts are active products with RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Selection among these three direct substitutes may be based on packaging preference (bulk) and current inventory availability.

For Cross-Manufacturer Substitution (Circuit Design Review Required):

The Lumex SSF-LXH100GD-01 and Kingbright WP1533BQ/GD are suitable alternatives when increased brightness is acceptable. Both operate at 2.2V (0.1V higher) with significantly higher current requirements (20mA and 25mA respectively) and brightness ratings (30mcd and 50mcd). The Kingbright WP1533BQ/GD features a slightly smaller lens diameter (4.70mm versus 5mm). These substitutes require circuit design verification to confirm that the higher current draw and voltage tolerance are compatible with existing current-limiting resistor networks and power supply specifications. Both cross-manufacturer options are RoHS3 compliant with active product status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use 5502207F as a direct replacement for the obsolete 5502207?

A: Yes. The 5502207F maintains identical electrical parameters (2.1V, 10mA, 10mcd) and mechanical specifications (5mm T-1 3/4 through-hole right-angle mounting). No circuit modifications are required. The 5502207F is an active product with RoHS3 compliance.

Q: What is the difference between the three Dialight direct substitutes?

A: The 5502207F, 5502208010F, and 5502212F are electrically and mechanically equivalent. All three maintain 2.1V voltage, 10mA current, 10mcd brightness, 65° viewing angle, and 5mm diffused lens specifications. Selection may be based on packaging format and inventory availability.

Q: Can I use the Lumex SSF-LXH100GD-01 or Kingbright WP1533BQ/GD without modifying my circuit?

A: These cross-manufacturer parts operate at higher voltage (2.2V) and current (20-25mA) with increased brightness (30-50mcd). Direct substitution without circuit review is not recommended. The current-limiting resistor network must be recalculated to accommodate the higher current draw. Verify that your power supply and circuit design can support the increased electrical requirements.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution compatibility?

A: For direct substitution, the critical parameters are voltage rating, current rating, wavelength, brightness (millicandela), viewing angle, lens type, and mounting configuration. The Dialight direct substitutes maintain all these parameters identically. Cross-manufacturer alternatives differ in voltage (2.2V versus 2.1V), current (20-25mA versus 10mA), brightness (30-50mcd versus 10mcd), and viewing angle (60° versus 65°).

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All active substitute parts listed (5502207F, 5502208010F, 5502212F, SSF-LXH100GD-01, and WP1533BQ/GD) are RoHS3 compliant. The original obsolete 5502207 is listed as REACH Unaffected.

Q: Does the Kingbright WP1533BQ/GD lens size difference affect compatibility?

A: The WP1533BQ/GD features a 4.70mm lens diameter compared to the standard 5mm. This smaller lens may affect visual appearance and light distribution in applications where the LED is visible through a panel or bezel. Mechanical fit verification is required for applications with size-constrained mounting holes or bezels.
