HDSP-333G 7-Segment LED Display - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HDSP-333G is a single-character, 7-segment LED display module manufactured by Broadcom Limited. This green LED display operates as a common cathode configuration and is housed in a 14-DIP package with 0.30" character size. The component is classified as Active product status and is fully RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent functional performance can be achieved within the allowed electrical and mechanical parameter ranges for this display category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the HDSP-333G is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Display Configuration: Single character, 7-segment, common cathode topology
• Physical Package: 14-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) form factor
• Character Size: 0.30" (7.62mm) digit height
• Color: Green wavelength output
• Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage (Vf) and current ratings within acceptable operating ranges for the application
• Compliance: RoHS3 and REACH compliance status
• Product Status: Active manufacturing status

The SC03-12GWA from Kingbright meets these substitution criteria. Both parts share identical display type, character configuration, package format, and compliance certifications. Electrical parameters (Vf and current ratings) fall within acceptable tolerance ranges for 7-segment LED display applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HDSP-333G and SC03-12GWA are Active product status components with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on application-specific electrical requirements:

• HDSP-333G: Lower forward voltage (2.07V) and lower test current (10mA) with lower brightness output (2mcd). Suitable for applications with strict power budget constraints or lower brightness requirements.

• SC03-12GWA: Higher forward voltage (2.2V) and higher test current (20mA) with higher brightness output (11mcd). Suitable for applications requiring increased luminous intensity and higher visibility.

Both parts maintain compatible mechanical dimensions and identical package footprints, ensuring direct PCB layout compatibility. Compliance certifications are equivalent across both options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SC03-12GWA directly replace HDSP-333G on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both parts use identical 14-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) package format with 10 leads. Physical footprint and pin configuration are compatible for direct board-level substitution.

Q: What are the electrical differences between these parts?

A: The SC03-12GWA operates at 2.2V forward voltage versus 2.07V for the HDSP-333G, and draws 20mA test current versus 10mA. The SC03-12GWA produces higher brightness (11mcd versus 2mcd). Peak wavelengths are similar (565nm versus 568nm), both within green spectrum.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulations?

A: Yes. Both HDSP-333G and SC03-12GWA are RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Which part should I select for a new design?

A: Selection depends on application brightness and power requirements. If higher visibility is needed, SC03-12GWA is appropriate. If power consumption must be minimized, HDSP-333G is suitable. Both are Active status products with equivalent compliance.

Q: Are there packaging differences?

A: HDSP-333G is supplied in Bulk packaging, while SC03-12GWA is supplied in Tube packaging. Both use identical component form factors and electrical specifications.
