Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are classified based on strict parameter matching across electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitution logic is based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

Electrical Parameters:

  • Wavelength - Dominant: 525nm (green spectrum)
  • Wavelength - Peak: 515nm
  • Voltage - Forward (Vf) Typical: 3.3V
  • Current - Test: 20mA
  • Millicandela Rating: 400mcd (±3mcd tolerance acceptable)
  • Viewing Angle: 120°

Mechanical Parameters:

  • Lens Style: Rectangle with Domed Top
  • Lens Size: 1.70mm x 0.60mm
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle
  • Package / Case: 2-SMD, No Lead
  • Size / Dimension: 2.10mm L x 1.00mm W
  • Height (Max): 0.60mm

Compliance Parameters:

  • RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: 3 (168 Hours)

Parts meeting all electrical and mechanical parameters are classified as direct substitutes. Packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. standard) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the APA2106ZGC/G based on provided specifications.

APA2106ZGC (Kingbright): This part is a parametric equivalent manufactured by the same supplier as the main part. All electrical parameters, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications are identical. Packaging format differs (Tape & Reel vs. standard), which affects logistics and handling but not component performance or PCB integration.

XZDG74W (SunLED): This part is a direct manufacturer substitute from an alternative supplier. All critical electrical parameters match the main part specification. The millicandela rating is 397mcd, which represents a 0.75% variance from the 400mcd specification and remains within acceptable tolerance for indication applications. Mechanical dimensions, mounting configuration, and compliance certifications are identical.

Both substitute parts are active-status components with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 3 rating, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility with the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XZDG74W be used as a direct replacement for APA2106ZGC/G?

A: Yes. The XZDG74W meets all electrical and mechanical parameters specified for the APA2106ZGC/G. The 397mcd luminous intensity represents a 0.75% variance from the 400mcd specification and is within acceptable tolerance for green indication LEDs operating at 525nm dominant wavelength with 3.3V forward voltage and 120° viewing angle.

Q: What is the difference between APA2106ZGC and APA2106ZGC/G?

A: Both parts are manufactured by Kingbright with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is packaging format: APA2106ZGC is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format for automated assembly, while APA2106ZGC/G uses standard packaging. Component performance and PCB integration are equivalent.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both APA2106ZGC and XZDG74W are ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the main part APA2106ZGC/G.

Q: Do substitute parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. All three parts maintain MSL 3 (168 Hours) moisture sensitivity level, requiring identical storage and handling protocols.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably on the same PCB assembly?

A: Yes. All substitute parts share identical mechanical dimensions (2.10mm L x 1.00mm W, 0.60mm max height), lens size (1.70mm x 0.60mm), and Surface Mount Right Angle mounting configuration, enabling direct PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: What is the viewing angle specification for all parts?

A: All parts, including substitutes, maintain a 120° viewing angle with rectangular domed-top lens geometry, ensuring consistent optical performance in indication applications.
