Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FLPR2-YG is based on the following electrical and mechanical criteria derived from the provided parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• LED assembly functionality for circuit board indication applications
• Moisture sensitivity level compatibility (MSL 1 - Unlimited)
• Mechanical form factor and mounting interface compatibility
• Electrical performance characteristics (voltage, current, wavelength)

The WP150A9VS/GYW from Kingbright satisfies these substitution requirements through equivalent moisture sensitivity classification, active product status, and specified electrical and optical parameters suitable for LED indication applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection of the WP150A9VS/GYW as a substitute for the FLPR2-YG is supported by the following factors:

Product Status Alignment: The WP150A9VS/GYW maintains active production status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability. This addresses the unavailability created by the FLPR2-YG obsolescence.

Regulatory Compliance: The WP150A9VS/GYW carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected classification, establishing suitability for modern manufacturing and regulatory requirements. These certifications provide equivalent or superior environmental compliance compared to the obsolete predecessor.

Moisture Sensitivity Compatibility: Both components share MSL 1 classification, indicating equivalent handling and storage requirements across manufacturing and deployment phases.

Functional Parity: As an LED circuit board indicator, the WP150A9VS/GYW provides direct functional replacement capability for the FLPR2-YG in LED assembly applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes WP150A9VS/GYW suitable for replacing FLPR2-YG?

A: The WP150A9VS/GYW shares the same moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) and provides LED indication functionality equivalent to the obsolete FLPR2-YG. Active production status ensures supply availability, and ROHS3 compliance exceeds the regulatory requirements of the original component.

Q: Are there differences in electrical specifications between these components?

A: The WP150A9VS/GYW specifies voltage ratings of 2.2V (Green) and 2.1V (Yellow), with current ratings of 25mA (Green) and 30mA (Yellow). The FLPR2-YG electrical specifications were not provided in available documentation, requiring verification against original design parameters during substitution validation.

Q: What is the package configuration difference?

A: The WP150A9VS/GYW uses a 5mm through-hole right-angle mounting interface with a round domed top lens. Mechanical compatibility with the original FLPR2-YG design must be verified based on specific PCB layout and mechanical constraints of the target application.

Q: Does MSL 1 rating apply to both components?

A: Yes. Both the FLPR2-YG and WP150A9VS/GYW carry MSL 1 classification, indicating unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions. Handling and storage procedures remain equivalent between components.

Q: Are there additional substitute options available?

A: The WP150A9VS/GYW documentation references WP59BL/GYW as an additional substitute within the same product family. Evaluation of this alternative follows the same parameter comparison methodology outlined in this reference.
