EAPL2835WB2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EAPL2835WB2 is a surface-mount LED lighting component manufactured by Everlight Electronics Co Ltd, classified as a cool white LED with a correlated color temperature (CCT) of 6000K. This part operates at a forward voltage of 3.25V with a test current of 60mA and delivers 28 lumens at 25°C under standard test conditions. The component is housed in a 1411 (3528 Metric) package with a 2-PLCC supplier device configuration, suitable for applications requiring compact, high-efficiency white LED illumination.

The EAPL2835WB2 maintains Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts become necessary when inventory constraints, lead time requirements, or specific packaging preferences necessitate alternative sourcing while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within the defined parameter tolerances.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EAPL2835WB2 is determined by strict adherence to the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Forward Voltage (Vf): 3.25V (Typical)
• Test Current: 60mA
• Maximum Current: 75mA
• Flux @ 25°C, Test Current: 28lm (22–33lm range)
• Lumens/Watt @ Test Current: 144 lm/W
• CRI: 80
• Viewing Angle: 120°
• Package / Case: 1411 (3528 Metric)
• Supplier Device Package: 2-PLCC
• Size / Dimension: 3.50mm × 2.80mm
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.85mm
• Thermal Resistance: 50°C/W
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 3 (168 Hours)

Allowable Variation Parameter:

• CCT (Correlated Color Temperature): Substitutes within the cool white spectrum (5000K–6500K) are acceptable when electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

The EAPL2835WA7 qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute based on identical electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and thermal characteristics. The primary distinction is a CCT shift from 6000K to 5000K, which remains within the cool white category and does not affect circuit-level compatibility or physical mounting requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection Criteria:

The EAPL2835WB2 and EAPL2835WA7 are electrically and mechanically interchangeable components. Both parts maintain Active product status, ensuring continued manufacturer support and supply chain availability. Both are RoHS3 compliant and carry identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) ratings, confirming equivalent handling and storage requirements.

Substitution Basis:

Selection between these parts should be determined by application-specific color temperature requirements and inventory availability:

• EAPL2835WB2 (6000K): Select when application specifications explicitly require 6000K cool white illumination or when existing inventory stock is available (1173 Pcs reported in stock).

• EAPL2835WA7 (5000K): Select when application tolerates 5000K cool white illumination or when supply chain lead times favor this variant. Significantly higher inventory availability (22595 Pcs reported in stock) may reduce procurement lead times.

Compliance Assurance:

Both parts satisfy RoHS3 compliance requirements and carry identical thermal and electrical performance metrics. No additional qualification or testing is required when substituting between these parts, provided the application's color temperature tolerance encompasses the 5000K–6000K range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can EAPL2835WA7 be used as a direct replacement for EAPL2835WB2 in production assemblies?

A: Yes. The EAPL2835WA7 is a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for the EAPL2835WB2. All critical parameters—forward voltage, test current, maximum current, luminous flux, efficiency, CRI, viewing angle, package dimensions, thermal resistance, and compliance certifications—are identical. The only difference is the correlated color temperature (5000K versus 6000K), both within the cool white spectrum. No circuit modifications or PCB layout changes are required.

Q2: What is the significance of the CCT difference between 6000K and 5000K?

A: CCT (Correlated Color Temperature) describes the perceived color of the light emitted. 6000K produces a slightly cooler, more bluish-white appearance, while 5000K produces a warmer, more neutral white appearance. Both are classified as cool white LEDs. The selection between them depends on the application's visual requirements. Electrically and thermally, they are identical.

Q3: Are there any packaging differences between EAPL2835WB2 and EAPL2835WA7?

A: The EAPL2835WB2 is supplied in standard packaging (not specified as Tape & Reel), while the EAPL2835WA7 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both use the same 2-PLCC supplier device package and 1411 (3528 Metric) case. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for high-volume automated assembly. If your assembly process requires Tape & Reel format, the EAPL2835WA7 is the appropriate choice.

Q4: Do both parts require identical handling and storage conditions?

A: Yes. Both parts carry Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 3 with a 168-hour floor life rating. Identical moisture control, storage temperature, and handling procedures apply to both components. No additional precautions are necessary when substituting between them.

Q5: What inventory considerations should influence the substitution decision?

A: The EAPL2835WA7 has significantly higher reported inventory (22595 Pcs) compared to the EAPL2835WB2 (1173 Pcs). If procurement lead time or supply chain continuity is a concern, the EAPL2835WA7 may offer better availability. However, this decision should be balanced against application-specific color temperature requirements.

Q6: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the EAPL2835WB2 and EAPL2835WA7 are RoHS3 compliant, confirming compliance with Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. No additional environmental or regulatory qualification is required when using either part.
