Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the DSD-40BCD series is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Series Compatibility: All substitute parts must belong to the DSD-40BCD base product family
• Display Configuration: 4.5-character 7-segment format with 0.52" digit size
• Physical Envelope: Identical module dimensions (0.920" H x 2.170" W x 0.560" D)
• Package Type: Module-level packaging with standardized mechanical interface
• Compliance Standards: ROHS3 compliance and equivalent regulatory status

The DSD-40BCD-RS-C is identified as a manufacturer-recommended substitute within this series. While color and electrical parameters differ, the mechanical form factor and display configuration remain constant, enabling direct module-level replacement in applications where display color change is acceptable.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the DSD-40BCD-GS-C and DSD-40BCD-RS-C are classified as obsolete products. Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific requirements regarding display color and electrical operating parameters.

The DSD-40BCD-GS-C operates at 35mA test current with green emission (565nm wavelength). The DSD-40BCD-RS-C operates at 85mA test current with red emission (635nm wavelength) and specifies a 5V forward voltage with 175mW maximum power dissipation.

Both parts maintain identical mechanical form factors and display configurations, ensuring physical compatibility in module-level replacement scenarios. Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH regulatory requirements, maintaining equivalent environmental and safety certification status.

Selection should prioritize application requirements for display color, current consumption, and power dissipation characteristics. Electrical interface modifications may be required to accommodate the increased current draw of the red variant.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the DSD-40BCD-RS-C directly replace the DSD-40BCD-GS-C?

A: Mechanical and dimensional compatibility is confirmed. The modules share identical physical envelopes and 4.5-character 7-segment display configuration. However, the red variant operates at higher current (85mA vs. 35mA) and specifies different electrical parameters. Circuit modifications may be necessary to accommodate these electrical differences.

Q: What are the key differences between these substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are display color (green vs. red), test current (35mA vs. 85mA), and specified electrical parameters. The red variant includes forward voltage (5V) and power dissipation (175mW) specifications not provided for the green variant. Physical dimensions and display configuration remain identical.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, confirming equivalent regulatory status. Both are classified as obsolete products.

Q: What packaging is available for these parts?

A: The DSD-40BCD-GS-C is available in standard packaging. The DSD-40BCD-RS-C is available in bulk packaging. Both are module-level packages suitable for direct integration.

Q: How do the electrical parameters affect system design?

A: The increased current requirement of the red variant (85mA vs. 35mA) necessitates circuit evaluation to confirm adequate current supply capacity. The specified 5V forward voltage and 175mW power dissipation for the red variant should be incorporated into thermal and power budget calculations.
