Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ASMT-SRB4-YW905 is identified as a manufacturer-recommended substitute for the ASMT-SRB4-PW505. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Package type: Both parts use 4-PLCC surface mount configuration
• Manufacturer: Both manufactured by Broadcom Limited
• Base product series: Both share the ASMT-SR base product number
• Compliance certifications: Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical MSL rating (2A, 4 Weeks)
• Regulatory classifications: Both carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8541.41.0000) codes

The substitute part maintains mechanical and regulatory compatibility while supporting active production availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between the ASMT-SRB4-PW505 and ASMT-SRB4-YW905 should be based on the following factors:

The ASMT-SRB4-PW505 is obsolete and no longer in active production. The ASMT-SRB4-YW905 is the manufacturer-recommended active substitute, currently available in production quantities (24,765 pcs in stock versus 820 pcs for the obsolete part).

Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications: ROHS3 compliance, EAR99 export classification, and 2A MSL rating. Both utilize the 4-PLCC package configuration and share the same base product series.

For new designs or production continuation, the ASMT-SRB4-YW905 is the appropriate selection due to active product status and sustained manufacturing support. The substitute maintains mechanical and regulatory compatibility with the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ASMT-SRB4-YW905 be used as a direct replacement for the ASMT-SRB4-PW505?

A: Yes. Both parts share the 4-PLCC package configuration, identical base product series (ASMT-SR), and equivalent compliance certifications (ROHS3, EAR99, MSL 2A). The substitute is the manufacturer-recommended alternative for the obsolete part.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The ASMT-SRB4-PW505 is classified as obsolete and no longer in active production. The ASMT-SRB4-YW905 provides continued availability with active manufacturing support.

Q: Are there differences in packaging between these parts?

A: The ASMT-SRB4-PW505 packaging specification is not provided. The ASMT-SRB4-YW905 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for high-volume surface mount production.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry EAR99 export classification, and maintain identical HTSUS code (8541.41.0000) and MSL rating (2A, 4 Weeks).

Q: What electrical parameters are specified for the substitute part?

A: Detailed electrical parameters (forward voltage, test current, wavelength, brightness rating, and viewing angle) are not provided in the substitute part specification. Confirmation of electrical compatibility should be obtained from Broadcom Limited technical documentation.
