Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 5912001007F is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Voltage Rating: Must be 2V to ensure direct circuit compatibility
• Mounting Type: Must be Surface Mount, Right Angle to maintain PCB layout compatibility
• Configuration: Must be Single LED configuration
• Color: Must be Red to preserve indicator function
• Lens Style: Must be Round with Domed Top for optical consistency
• Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 and REACH compliance status

The substitute part 5912001007NF meets these core substitution criteria while operating within the allowed parameter variance for this product category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 5912001007NF is a direct substitute for the obsolete 5912001007F based on matching voltage rating, mounting configuration, and compliance certifications. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical MSL ratings, ensuring equivalent handling and storage requirements.

The substitute part is currently in active production status, providing long-term component availability compared to the obsolete main part. Both components are from the same Dialight 591 series, confirming design family compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5912001007NF be used as a direct replacement for the 5912001007F?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical voltage ratings (2V), mounting types (Surface Mount, Right Angle), lens styles (Round with Domed Top), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected). The substitute is suitable for direct PCB substitution.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The 5912001007NF operates at 20mA versus the original 30mA, produces higher brightness (14mcd versus 4.5mcd), has a slightly shorter wavelength (645nm versus 635nm), and features a marginally smaller lens diameter (2.85mm versus 3.00mm). The substitute is currently in active production while the original is obsolete.

Q: Are there packaging differences?

A: The 5912001007F uses standard packaging, while the 5912001007NF is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both maintain identical MSL ratings of 2 (1 Year).

Q: Does the lower current rating of the substitute affect circuit design?

A: The 20mA rating of the 5912001007NF is lower than the original 30mA specification. Circuit current-limiting resistor values must be recalculated based on the substitute's 20mA rating to ensure proper operation and component longevity.

Q: Are both parts compliant with environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both the 5912001007F and 5912001007NF are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
