APHB1608ZGSYKJ3C Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The APHB1608ZGSYKJ3C is a dual-color surface mount LED indicator manufactured by Kingbright, combining independent green and yellow light-emitting elements in a single 0603 (1608 Metric) package. This component is designed for LED indication applications requiring simultaneous green and yellow signal capability. The part is currently in active production status with 815 units available in inventory. Substitute parts are identified to address supply chain requirements, inventory availability, or specific application parameter needs while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the APHB1608ZGSYKJ3C is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Package / Case: 0603 (1608 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Configuration: Independent (dual-color)
• Color: Green and Yellow
• Lens Transparency: Clear
• Voltage - Forward (Vf): 3.3V Green, 2V Yellow
• Current - Test: 20mA Green, 20mA Yellow
• Wavelength - Dominant: 525nm Green, 590nm Yellow
• Viewing Angle: 130°
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

The substitute part APHB1608ZGSYKC meets all mandatory matching parameters. Variations in millicandela rating and maximum height are within acceptable tolerance ranges for this product category and do not affect functional interchangeability in standard LED indication applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both APHB1608ZGSYKJ3C and APHB1608ZGSYKC are active production components manufactured by Kingbright with identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on the following engineering criteria:

APHB1608ZGSYKJ3C is the primary specification when yellow luminous intensity of 300mcd is required and component height is constrained to 0.52mm maximum.

APHB1608ZGSYKC is the functional substitute when yellow luminous intensity of 150mcd is acceptable and component height tolerance extends to 0.65mm maximum. This part offers significantly higher inventory availability (6100 units versus 815 units), supporting supply chain continuity and lead time reduction.

Both parts share identical electrical characteristics (forward voltage, test current, wavelength), identical mechanical footprint (1.60mm x 0.80mm), and identical viewing angle (130°). PCB layout and reflow soldering parameters are interchangeable between these parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can APHB1608ZGSYKC replace APHB1608ZGSYKJ3C in all applications?

A: APHB1608ZGSYKC is functionally equivalent for applications where yellow luminous intensity of 150mcd meets the design requirement. If the original design specifies 300mcd yellow output, the substitute part does not meet that specification. The 0.13mm height difference (0.65mm versus 0.52mm) must be evaluated against PCB assembly clearance constraints.

Q: What are the critical parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Package type (0603 Metric), mounting method (Surface Mount), color configuration (Green/Yellow Independent), forward voltage (3.3V Green / 2V Yellow), test current (20mA each), wavelength (525nm Green / 590nm Yellow), and viewing angle (130°) must be identical. Both parts meet these criteria.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and Moisture Sensitivity Level 3 (168 Hours). Both are active production components from the same manufacturer.

Q: What is the impact of the 150mcd yellow rating on circuit design?

A: The yellow LED in APHB1608ZGSYKC produces 50% of the luminous intensity compared to APHB1608ZGSYKJ3C. Circuit designs relying on specific yellow brightness levels must account for this difference through adjusted current limiting resistor values or alternative optical design considerations.

Q: Are the parts pin-compatible?

A: Yes. Both parts use identical 4-SMD package configuration with the same footprint (1.60mm x 0.80mm). PCB artwork and assembly processes are directly interchangeable.
