Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

5520211F (Dialight) - Direct Equivalent: This part provides the closest electrical and optical match to the 5670H1_1. Operating voltage of 2.2V is within acceptable tolerance for most circuit designs. Current rating remains at 10mA, matching the original specification. Millicandela rating of 7mcd is nearly identical to the original 6.3mcd. Product status is Active, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating are identical. Recommended for designs where voltage tolerance of ±0.2V is acceptable.

5522466F (Dialight) - Alternative with Higher Performance: This substitute operates at lower voltage (1.6V) with doubled current rating (20mA) and increased brightness (10mcd). Wavelength shift to 645nm remains within red spectrum. Clear lens type differs from the original diffused, tinted lens, affecting light distribution characteristics. Viewing angle of 24° is narrower than typical diffused indicators. Product status is Active. Suitable for applications requiring higher brightness or lower voltage operation, provided circuit design accommodates 20mA current and clear lens optical properties.

WP1503EB/2ID (Kingbright) - Alternative with Enhanced Brightness: This part maintains 2V voltage rating and diffused, tinted lens type matching the original. Current rating of 20mA requires circuit redesign. Millicandela rating of 50mcd provides significantly higher brightness. Wavelength of 627nm represents shift toward orange-red spectrum. Viewing angle of 60° provides wider light distribution. Product status is Active. Suitable for applications requiring enhanced visibility or wider viewing angle, with circuit modification for 20mA operation.

All substitute parts maintain mechanical compatibility (5mm T-1 3/4 through-hole right-angle configuration) and regulatory compliance (ROHS3, MSL 1).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5520211F directly replace 5670H1_1 without circuit modification?

A: Yes, 5520211F is compatible with minimal circuit impact. The voltage difference of 0.2V (2.2V vs 2V) falls within standard circuit tolerance. Current rating remains 10mA. No circuit redesign is required for standard indicator applications.

Q: What is the primary difference between 5522466F and the original 5670H1_1?

A: 5522466F operates at lower voltage (1.6V) and higher current (20mA) compared to the original 2V/10mA specification. Additionally, the lens type is Clear rather than Diffused, Tinted, affecting light distribution. Circuit current-limiting design must be adjusted for 20mA operation.

Q: Why does WP1503EB/2ID have significantly higher millicandela rating?

A: The WP1503EB/2ID is rated at 50mcd compared to 6.3mcd in the original part. This higher brightness is a characteristic of the Kingbright design and may be suitable for applications requiring enhanced visibility. However, circuit design must accommodate the 20mA current requirement.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes, all substitute parts listed (5520211F, 5522466F, and WP1503EB/2ID) are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), matching the original 5670H1_1 specifications.

Q: What is the viewing angle significance for these LED indicators?

A: Viewing angle determines the cone of light distribution. The original 5670H1_1 does not specify viewing angle. Substitute parts range from 24° (narrow, focused) to 60° (wide, diffused). Selection depends on application requirements for light distribution pattern and visibility from different angles.

Q: Can I use 5522466F in a circuit designed for 5670H1_1?

A: Direct substitution requires circuit modification. The 5522466F operates at 1.6V (lower) and 20mA (double the current). Existing current-limiting resistors must be recalculated. Voltage supply compatibility must be verified. Clear lens type will produce different light distribution than the original diffused, tinted lens.

Q: Which substitute offers the best long-term availability?

A: All three substitute parts carry Active product status, indicating ongoing manufacturing and availability. Dialight 5520211F and 5522466F are from the same manufacturer (Series 552), while Kingbright WP1503EB/2ID is from an alternative established manufacturer. Both manufacturers maintain active production lines for these indicator types.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: The original 5670H1_1 packaging is listed as "-" (not specified). Substitute parts 5520211F and 5522466F are supplied in Bulk packaging. WP1503EB/2ID packaging is listed as "-". For procurement purposes, confirm packaging requirements with supplier specifications.
