ADSP-H5E3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ADSP-H5E3 is a single-character red 7-segment LED display module manufactured by Broadcom Limited. This component is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of equivalent substitute parts for ongoing design support and procurement. The display operates at 2V forward voltage with a 20mA test current, providing 40mcd brightness output in a compact 10-DIP package measuring 0.693" H × 0.488" W × 0.272" D.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ADSP-H5E3 is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Display configuration: Single-character 7-segment red LED
• Common pin type: Common cathode architecture
• Electrical specifications: 2V forward voltage, 20mA test current, 40mcd brightness, 634nm peak wavelength
• Mechanical compatibility: 10-DIP package with identical physical dimensions (0.693" H × 0.488" W × 0.272" D)
• Environmental rating: MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The HDSP-H5E3 meets all specified parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical performance and mechanical form factor.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HDSP-H5E3 is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete ADSP-H5E3. Both parts are manufactured by Broadcom Limited and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

The HDSP-H5E3 offers the following advantages for new designs and procurement:

• Active product status ensures ongoing availability and manufacturing support
• ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status provide regulatory alignment for current environmental standards
• Identical 10-DIP package and pinout enable direct board-level substitution without layout modifications
• Equivalent electrical performance (2V, 20mA, 40mcd, 634nm) maintains circuit functionality

Selection of the HDSP-H5E3 is appropriate for all applications previously designed around the ADSP-H5E3 where the specified electrical and mechanical parameters are required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HDSP-H5E3 be used as a direct replacement for the ADSP-H5E3 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The HDSP-H5E3 is electrically and mechanically identical to the ADSP-H5E3. Both parts feature the same 10-DIP package, pinout, forward voltage (2V), test current (20mA), brightness (40mcd), and wavelength (634nm). No circuit modifications or board redesign are required.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The ADSP-H5E3 is classified as obsolete, while the HDSP-H5E3 maintains active product status. The HDSP-H5E3 also carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certifications, making it suitable for current regulatory requirements.

Q: Are there any package or pinout differences between the ADSP-H5E3 and HDSP-H5E3?

A: No. Both parts use the 10-DIP (0.600", 15.24mm) package with identical physical dimensions of 0.693" H × 0.488" W × 0.272" D. Pinout and mechanical form factor are identical.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that define substitution for this 7-segment display?

A: Substitution is determined by matching the display type (7-segment), character count (1), color (red), common pin configuration (common cathode), digit size (0.52"), forward voltage (2V), test current (20mA), brightness (40mcd), and peak wavelength (634nm).

Q: Is the HDSP-H5E3 available in the same packaging options as the ADSP-H5E3?

A: The HDSP-H5E3 is available in bulk packaging. Both parts share the same 10-DIP package specification and are suitable for identical PCB assembly processes.
