Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 qualifies as a direct substitute for the ASMT-YTC2-0AA02 based on the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility:

  • Identical package type: 6-SMD, J-Lead (6-PLCC)
  • Identical lens size: 2.30mm
  • Identical footprint dimensions: 3.00mm L x 2.80mm W
  • Compatible mounting type: Surface Mount

Electrical Compatibility:

  • Matching RGB independent configuration
  • Forward voltage within acceptable tolerance: Red 2.1V (identical), Green 3.1V (0.1V variance), Blue 3.1V (0.1V variance)
  • Identical test current: 20mA per channel
  • Wavelength specifications within acceptable range for RGB indication

Functional Differences:

  • Lens transparency: Clear (ASMT-YTC2-0AA02) versus Diffused (ASMT-YTC7-0AA02)
  • Millicandela ratings differ due to lens diffusion characteristics
  • Viewing angle: 120° (ASMT-YTC2-0AA02) versus 110° (ASMT-YTC7-0AA02)
  • Height variance: 1.80mm (ASMT-YTC2-0AA02) versus 2.00mm (ASMT-YTC7-0AA02)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 is the active production equivalent for the obsolete ASMT-YTC2-0AA02. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and are manufactured by Broadcom Limited, ensuring regulatory consistency.

Primary Consideration: The ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 features a diffused lens versus the clear lens of the original part. This optical difference results in lower millicandela ratings but broader light distribution characteristics. Applications requiring specific luminous intensity profiles must account for these differences.

Secondary Consideration: The ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 exhibits a 0.20mm height increase (2.00mm versus 1.80mm) and a 10° reduction in viewing angle (110° versus 120°). PCB layout and optical design must accommodate these dimensional and angular variations.

Compliance Status: Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, supporting direct substitution in regulated applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 replace the ASMT-YTC2-0AA02 in existing PCB designs?

A: Mechanical and electrical compatibility is confirmed for the 6-PLCC package footprint. However, the 0.20mm height difference and diffused lens characteristics require design review to ensure optical and spatial requirements are met.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two RGB LED indicators?

A: The ASMT-YTC2-0AA02 features a clear lens with higher red and green millicandela ratings, while the ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 features a diffused lens with different light distribution characteristics. The diffused lens provides broader viewing angles at the cost of reduced peak luminous intensity.

Q: Are the forward voltage specifications compatible?

A: Forward voltages are within acceptable tolerance. Red channels are identical at 2.1V. Green and blue channels differ by 0.1V (ASMT-YTC2-0AA02 at 3.2V versus ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 at 3.1V). Circuit designs must accommodate this variance through appropriate current-limiting resistor selection.

Q: What packaging format is used for the ASMT-YTC7-0AA02?

A: The ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, whereas the ASMT-YTC2-0AA02 packaging format was not specified. Verify tape specifications and reel compatibility with assembly equipment.

Q: Are both parts suitable for high-reliability applications?

A: Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The ASMT-YTC7-0AA02 carries a higher moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3 versus MSL 2A), requiring stricter moisture control during storage and assembly.
