Engineering Selection Recommendations
Primary Substitute - Dialight 5988091107F: This part is the direct manufacturer equivalent with active product status. It maintains identical package, color, lens properties, and forward voltage (3.2V). The wavelength shifts from 473nm to 470nm, remaining within the blue spectrum range. Brightness increases from 90mcd to 140mcd, providing enhanced visibility. All substitute parts listed in the original part specification include this component, confirming its primary substitution role. ROHS3 compliance and identical MSL rating ensure manufacturing compatibility.
Secondary Substitutes - Kingbright APT1608QBC/D and QT Brightek QBLP601-2IB: Both parts maintain the 0603 package, clear lens, and 20mA test current. APT1608QBC/D operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 100mcd brightness and 465nm wavelength. QBLP601-2IB operates at 2.9V with 95mcd brightness and 465nm wavelength. Both are ROHS3 compliant and suitable for standard indication applications. Viewing angle reduction to 120° (APT1608QBC/D) may affect applications requiring wide-angle visibility.
Alternative Substitute - LITEON LTST-C193TBKT-5A: This part operates at reduced forward voltage (2.8V) and test current (5mA), making it suitable for low-power indication circuits. Brightness is significantly reduced to 15mcd. MSL rating of 2A (4 Weeks) requires stricter moisture control during storage and assembly. Use this part only when low-power operation is a design requirement.
Alternative Substitute - Lumex SML-LXFT0603USBCTR: This part operates at elevated forward voltage (4.6V) with 30mcd brightness. Dominant wavelength is not specified; peak wavelength is 470nm. Suitable for applications where higher forward voltage is acceptable and moderate brightness is required.
All substitute parts maintain REACH Unaffected and EAR99 ECCN status, matching the original part's regulatory classification.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I use LTST-C193TBKT-5A as a direct replacement for 5988090107F?
A: LTST-C193TBKT-5A is a functional substitute for indication applications but operates at significantly different electrical parameters. Forward voltage is 2.8V (versus 3.2V), test current is 5mA (versus 20mA), and brightness is 15mcd (versus 90mcd). Circuit redesign may be required to accommodate the lower current and voltage. Use this part only when low-power operation is a design objective.
Q: What is the difference between 5988090107F and 5988091107F?
A: Both parts are Dialight 0603 blue LEDs with identical forward voltage (3.2V), package, and lens properties. The primary differences are product status (obsolete versus active), wavelength (473nm versus 470nm), and brightness (90mcd versus 140mcd). 5988091107F is the recommended substitute due to its active status and higher brightness.
Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?
A: All active substitute parts listed (5988091107F, APT1608QBC/D, LTST-C193TBKT-5A, SML-LXFT0603USBCTR, QBLP601-2IB) are ROHS3 compliant. The original 5988090107F does not specify RoHS status due to its obsolete classification.
Q: Will substitute parts fit the same PCB footprint?
A: Yes. All substitute parts use the 0603 (1608 Metric) package with identical footprint dimensions (1.60mm L x 0.80mm W). Height variations (0.45mm to 0.75mm) are within standard PCB assembly tolerances and do not affect footprint compatibility.
Q: Which substitute part has the closest brightness to the original?
A: QBLP601-2IB (95mcd) and APT1608QBC/D (100mcd) provide brightness closest to the original 90mcd rating. 5988091107F (140mcd) offers increased brightness. LTST-C193TBKT-5A (15mcd) and SML-LXFT0603USBCTR (30mcd) are significantly dimmer.
Q: What is the impact of viewing angle differences?
A: The original part and most substitutes maintain 140° viewing angle. APT1608QBC/D and SML-LXFT0603USBCTR reduce this to 120°. Narrower viewing angles concentrate light intensity but reduce peripheral visibility. Select based on application requirements for indication visibility range.
Q: Are there any moisture sensitivity concerns with substitute parts?
A: Most substitute parts maintain MSL 3 (168 Hours) rating, matching the original. LTST-C193TBKT-5A uses MSL 2A (4 Weeks), requiring stricter moisture control during storage and assembly. Verify storage conditions and bake-out procedures if using this part.
Q: Can I mix different substitute parts in the same production run?
A: All substitute parts are functionally compatible for standard blue LED indication applications. However, brightness variations (15mcd to 140mcd) and forward voltage differences (2.8V to 4.6V) may result in visible brightness inconsistencies in the final product. Maintain part consistency within a single assembly for uniform optical appearance.
