APECVA3010SGC Green SMD LED Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The APECVA3010SGC is an active-status green surface mount LED manufactured by Kingbright, designed for indication applications requiring a 568nm dominant wavelength output. This component is a 2-SMD, no-lead package with right-angle mounting configuration and operates at 2.2V forward voltage with 20mA test current. The part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, suitable for applications requiring standard green LED indication in compact form factors.

Substitute parts are identified to address inventory availability, packaging format requirements, or manufacturer preference while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within specified parameter tolerances.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the APECVA3010SGC are classified based on electrical and mechanical parameter alignment:

Parametric Equivalent Classification: Parts matching all critical electrical parameters (forward voltage, test current, wavelength range, millicandela rating) and mechanical specifications (package type, mounting configuration, physical dimensions, lens characteristics).

Similar Classification: Parts matching dominant electrical parameters (forward voltage, test current, wavelength range, mounting type, physical dimensions) with allowable variance in luminous intensity within the green LED indication category.

The following parameters determine substitution eligibility:

• Wavelength - Dominant: 568nm ±tolerance
• Wavelength - Peak: 565nm ±tolerance
• Voltage - Forward (Vf): 2.2V
• Current - Test: 20mA
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle
• Package / Case: 2-SMD, No Lead
• Physical Dimensions: 3.00mm L x 2.00mm W, 1.00mm height maximum
• Lens Configuration: Rectangle with Domed Top, 2.00mm x 1.00mm
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

APA3010SGC (Kingbright) - Parametric Equivalent:

The APA3010SGC is a parametric equivalent to the APECVA3010SGC, manufactured by the same supplier (Kingbright) with identical electrical specifications and mechanical configuration. Both parts share the same base product number (APA3010 vs. APECVA3010) and are functionally interchangeable. The primary distinction is packaging format: APA3010SGC is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, whereas APECVA3010SGC is supplied in standard packaging. Both maintain active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts depends on procurement requirements and packaging format compatibility with assembly processes.

XZMG56W (SunLED) - Similar Substitute:

The XZMG56W is classified as a similar substitute manufactured by SunLED. This part maintains electrical compatibility across forward voltage (2.2V), test current (20mA), wavelength specifications (568nm dominant, 565nm peak), viewing angle (120°), and mounting configuration (Surface Mount, Right Angle). Physical dimensions and lens configuration are identical (3.00mm L x 2.00mm W, 1.00mm height, Rectangle with Domed Top lens, 2.00mm x 1.00mm lens size). The luminous intensity rating differs at 11mcd compared to 15mcd for the primary part, representing a 26.7% reduction in brightness output. This part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format and maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection of XZMG56W is appropriate for applications where the reduced brightness output does not impact functional requirements or where inventory availability and cost considerations justify the luminous intensity variance.

All three parts maintain active product status and full regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH unaffected, MSL 3).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can APA3010SGC be used as a direct replacement for APECVA3010SGC?

A: Yes. APA3010SGC is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The parts differ only in packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. standard packaging). Direct substitution is valid provided the assembly process accommodates the packaging format.

Q: What is the key difference between APECVA3010SGC and XZMG56W?

A: The primary difference is luminous intensity: APECVA3010SGC is rated at 15mcd while XZMG56W is rated at 11mcd. All other electrical parameters (forward voltage, test current, wavelength, viewing angle) and mechanical specifications (mounting type, package, physical dimensions, lens configuration) are identical. XZMG56W is suitable for applications where the reduced brightness output is acceptable.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. APECVA3010SGC, APA3010SGC, and XZMG56W are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What does the 2-SMD, No Lead package designation mean?

A: This indicates a surface mount LED package with two solder pads (SMD = Surface Mount Device) and no through-hole leads. The component is mounted directly to the PCB surface using reflow soldering.

Q: Can XZMG56W be used in applications requiring 15mcd brightness?

A: No. XZMG56W is rated at 11mcd, which is 26.7% lower than the 15mcd rating of APECVA3010SGC. Applications with specific brightness requirements must use parts meeting those luminous intensity specifications.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 3 rating?

A: MSL 3 indicates the component can be exposed to moisture for up to 168 hours (7 days) at specified temperature and humidity conditions before soldering. Proper storage in dry conditions is required to maintain component integrity.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical physical dimensions: 3.00mm length, 2.00mm width, 1.00mm maximum height, with 2.00mm x 1.00mm lens size and Rectangle with Domed Top lens style.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel (TR) and standard packaging?

A: Tape & Reel packaging supplies components on a continuous tape wound on a reel, suitable for automated assembly processes. Standard packaging typically refers to alternative formats. Selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility and procurement requirements.

Q: Do all parts operate at the same forward voltage?

A: Yes. All three parts (APECVA3010SGC, APA3010SGC, and XZMG56W) operate at 2.2V typical forward voltage with 20mA test current.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: APA3010SGC can be used interchangeably with APECVA3010SGC. XZMG56W can be used interchangeably only if the application does not require the full 15mcd brightness output. Verify luminous intensity requirements before substituting XZMG56W.
