Dialight 5520813F LED Circuit Board Indicator - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Dialight 5520813F is a dual-level LED circuit board indicator featuring integrated red and yellow LEDs in a right-angle through-hole configuration. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of compatible substitutes essential for ongoing system support and component procurement.

The 5520813F provides simultaneous red and yellow indication capability with diffused, tinted lenses and is designed for applications requiring dual-color status signaling on printed circuit boards. Due to its obsolete status, sourcing alternatives from the active product portfolio is necessary for new designs and system maintenance.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Dialight 5520213F qualifies as a substitute for the 5520813F based on the following alignment of critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

• Dual-color configuration: Red and Yellow LEDs
• Dual-level (2 High) stacked arrangement
• Current rating: 20mA per LED
• Through-hole mounting technology
• Diffused lens type
• Series 552 product family
• RoHS3 compliance
• REACH unaffected status
• MSL 1 rating

Key Difference: The 5520213F features vertical mounting orientation, whereas the 5520813F uses right-angle mounting. This represents a mechanical form factor change that may require PCB layout modification but does not affect electrical compatibility or functional performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Dialight 5520213F is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete 5520813F. Both components maintain identical compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH unaffected) and moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility.

The primary consideration for component selection is mounting orientation. The 5520213F uses vertical through-hole mounting compared to the right-angle configuration of the 5520813F. This difference requires PCB footprint modification but does not impact electrical performance, current handling, or voltage specifications.

The 5520213F is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. The substitute part maintains the dual-color LED functionality and 2 High stacked configuration required for dual-status indication applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5520213F directly replace the 5520813F without PCB modification?

A: No. The 5520213F uses vertical through-hole mounting, while the 5520813F uses right-angle mounting. PCB footprint redesign is required. However, electrical compatibility is maintained.

Q: Are the voltage and current specifications compatible?

A: Yes. Both parts operate at 20mA per LED. Voltage ratings are within compatible ranges: 5520813F operates at 2.1V Red and 2.2V Yellow; 5520213F operates at 2.2V Red and 2.0V Yellow. Both are suitable for standard 2V/2.2V LED drive circuits.

Q: What is the difference in brightness between these parts?

A: The 5520813F provides 34mcd brightness. The 5520213F provides 6.3mcd Red and 8mcd Yellow. The original part is significantly brighter. Application brightness requirements must be evaluated during substitution planning.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 5520813F and 5520213F are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The 5520813F is supplied in standard packaging. The 5520213F is supplied in bulk packaging. Procurement quantities and handling procedures may differ accordingly.

Q: Are the viewing angles identical?

A: The 5520813F provides 50° viewing angle. The 5520213F provides 50° Red and 60° Yellow viewing angles. The substitute offers slightly wider yellow LED visibility.
