Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 5580201811 is determined by strict equivalence across electrical and optical parameters. The primary substitute, Dialight 5580201811F, maintains identical specifications for voltage, current, color, lens transparency, lens dimensions, panel cutout geometry, viewing angle, brightness output, and wavelength. Both components belong to the Dialight 558 series and share the same base product number 5580201.

The key parameters governing substitution are:

• Voltage and current ratings (2.1V, 25mA)
• Optical properties (green diffused lens, 40° viewing angle, 16mcd, 563nm)
• Physical form factor (3mm T-1 lens, round domed top, 0.16" panel cutout)
• Moisture sensitivity classification (MSL 1)

The primary difference between the main part and substitute lies in termination style and product status. The 5580201811 uses wire wrap termination and is obsolete, while the 5580201811F employs snap-in termination and maintains active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 5580201811F is the direct substitute for the obsolete 5580201811. Both components deliver identical electrical performance and optical characteristics across all critical parameters. The 5580201811F is recommended for new designs and production continuity due to its active product status and ROHS3 compliance certification.

Selection between these parts depends on termination requirements. The 5580201811 uses wire wrap termination suitable for manual assembly and hand-soldering applications. The 5580201811F employs snap-in termination for panel-mount applications. Verify your assembly process and panel interface specifications to determine which termination style is appropriate for your application.

The 5580201811F's ROHS3 compliance provides regulatory advantage for applications subject to RoHS directives, whereas the 5580201811 does not meet this standard.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5580201811F directly replace the 5580201811 in existing designs?

A: Electrical and optical compatibility is complete. The primary consideration is termination style. The 5580201811 features wire wrap termination while the 5580201811F uses snap-in termination. Verify your PCB or panel interface accommodates the snap-in design before substitution.

Q: What is the difference between wire wrap and snap-in termination?

A: Wire wrap termination consists of leads suitable for manual wrapping around PCB posts or hand-soldering. Snap-in termination features a plastic housing designed to lock into a panel cutout, securing the component without additional fasteners. Both provide electrical connection; the choice depends on your assembly method and mounting surface.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 5580201811F meets ROHS3 compliance standards, while the 5580201811 does not. Both maintain REACH Unaffected status and share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the 5580201811F is the appropriate selection.

Q: Do both parts have the same optical output?

A: Yes. Both deliver 16mcd brightness at 563nm peak wavelength with 40° viewing angle through identical 3mm T-1 diffused green lenses. Optical performance is equivalent.

Q: What is the panel cutout requirement for installation?

A: Both parts require a 0.16" (4.06mm) round panel cutout. This dimension is identical for both the wire wrap and snap-in versions.
