Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 5684F1_1_1_1 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Configuration: 2 High x 2 Wide array structure
• Color: Red (x 4) LED elements
• Wavelength - Peak: 635nm red spectrum
• Lens Size: 3mm diameter, T-1 form factor
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle orientation
• RoHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected status

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

• Voltage Rating: Nominal 2.0V to 2.2V operating range
• Current Rating: 10mA to 20mA operational range
• Millicandela Rating: 10mcd brightness level
• Lens Type and Style: Round with Domed Top configuration

The substitute part 5690101111F (Dialight) maintains the core functional and mechanical parameters while operating at slightly different electrical specifications (2V, 20mA) and featuring a diffused lens variant. Both parts share identical configuration, color, wavelength, lens size, mounting type, and regulatory compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Substitution:

The 5690101111F (Dialight) is an active production equivalent suitable for replacing the obsolete 5684F1_1_1_1 (VCC). Both components maintain identical mechanical form factor, configuration, color specification, and wavelength characteristics. Both are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements.

Electrical Parameter Considerations:

The substitute part operates at 2V nominal voltage compared to the original 2.2V specification, with a maximum current rating of 20mA versus the original 10mA. Circuit designs must accommodate these electrical differences through appropriate current-limiting resistor adjustment. The brightness output remains equivalent at 10mcd for both parts.

Optical Characteristic Differences:

The 5690101111F features a diffused lens variant compared to the tinted lens of the original part. The substitute provides a specified 60° viewing angle. These optical differences may affect light distribution characteristics in the application and should be evaluated for visual indication requirements.

Compliance and Supply Status:

The 5690101111F is in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications, eliminating regulatory substitution barriers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5690101111F directly replace the 5684F1_1_1_1 without circuit modification?

A: The 5690101111F is mechanically and functionally compatible as a substitute. However, the electrical specifications differ: the substitute operates at 2V with a 20mA maximum current rating compared to the original 2.2V at 10mA. Circuit designs using current-limiting resistors must be recalculated to accommodate the substitute part's electrical characteristics.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 5684F1_1_1_1 is classified as obsolete. The 5690101111F is an active production part from Dialight that maintains the same mechanical form factor, configuration, color, wavelength, and mounting type, making it suitable for ongoing production and maintenance applications.

Q: Are there optical differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The original 5684F1_1_1_1 features a tinted lens, while the substitute 5690101111F features a diffused, tinted lens with a specified 60° viewing angle. The diffused lens may provide wider light distribution compared to the original tinted lens. Application-specific visual indication requirements should be evaluated.

Q: Do both parts meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both the 5684F1_1_1_1 and 5690101111F are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: What is the brightness equivalence between these parts?

A: Both parts are rated at 10mcd (millicandela), providing equivalent brightness output for circuit board indication applications.

Q: Are there packaging or inventory considerations?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. The 5684F1_1_1_1 has 2793 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The 5690101111F has 1099 pieces in stock as new original inventory. Availability should be confirmed for production requirements.
