Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FN15968_RONDA-WW-C is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Manufacturer: Ledil (same manufacturer maintains design consistency)
• Series: Ronda (product line compatibility)
• Mounting Type: Socket (mechanical interface requirement)
• Material: Acrylic (optical and thermal properties)
• Color: Clear (light transmission specification)
• Lens Style: Round with Flat Top (form factor)
• Optical Pattern: Wide (beam distribution characteristic)
• Number of LEDs: 1 (single LED application)

Acceptable Variation Parameters:

• Lens Size: Diameter may vary based on application space constraints
• Viewing Angle: May differ within wide optical pattern classification
• Product Status: Active status preferred for ongoing availability

The substitute part F15282_RONDA-WW meets the primary substitution criteria while maintaining compatibility with the socket mounting interface and acrylic material specification. Variation in lens diameter (69.9mm vs 53.9mm) and viewing angle (60° vs 57°/58°) represents a design trade-off that must be evaluated within the specific application context.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For FN15968_RONDA-WW-C Replacement:

The F15282_RONDA-WW substitute part is classified as an active product with current manufacturing status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for electronic component applications.

The primary engineering consideration is the dimensional and optical angle difference. The substitute part features a larger lens diameter (69.9mm versus 53.9mm) and a 60° viewing angle compared to the original 57°/58° specification. These differences impact the optical beam distribution and mechanical envelope within the host assembly.

Both parts utilize identical mounting type (socket), material composition (acrylic), and are designed for single LED applications within the Ronda series. The active product status of F15282_RONDA-WW provides superior long-term component availability compared to the obsolete FN15968_RONDA-WW-C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can F15282_RONDA-WW be used as a direct replacement for FN15968_RONDA-WW-C?

A: F15282_RONDA-WW is a functional substitute within the Ronda series lens family. Both parts share identical mounting type (socket), material (acrylic), color (clear), and optical pattern (wide). The substitute differs in lens diameter and viewing angle specification. Direct mechanical and electrical compatibility is maintained through the socket mounting interface. Application-specific optical performance must be evaluated based on the 60° viewing angle of the substitute versus the 57°/58° specification of the original part.

Q: What are the key compatibility factors for this substitution?

A: Compatibility is determined by: (1) Socket mounting type—both parts use identical socket interface; (2) Acrylic material—both utilize acrylic construction for optical and thermal properties; (3) Single LED design—both are specified for one LED application; (4) Clear color—both provide clear light transmission; (5) Wide optical pattern—both distribute light across a wide beam angle. The viewing angle and lens diameter represent design variations that must be assessed within the specific application requirements.

Q: Why is the substitute part larger in diameter?

A: The F15282_RONDA-WW features a 69.9mm diameter compared to the 53.9mm diameter of FN15968_RONDA-WW-C. This dimensional difference is a design characteristic of the substitute part and is not provided with additional technical explanation in the component specifications. Mechanical envelope compatibility must be verified in the host assembly design.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: FN15968_RONDA-WW-C is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. F15282_RONDA-WW maintains active product status, ensuring current production, established supply chains, and long-term component availability. For new designs or ongoing production requirements, the active status of the substitute part provides superior supply chain reliability.

Q: Are regulatory certifications maintained with this substitution?

A: Both parts maintain identical regulatory compliance: ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected status. ECCN classification (EAR99) is identical for both parts. Regulatory requirements for electronic component applications are satisfied by the substitute part.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: FN15968_RONDA-WW-C packaging is not specified in the component data. F15282_RONDA-WW is supplied in tray packaging. Packaging format may impact inventory management and component handling procedures within manufacturing operations.
