HLMP2885 LED Indicator Bar - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HLMP2885 is a green LED circuit board indicator bar manufactured by Everlight Electronics Co Ltd, configured as a single DIP unit with a rectangle flat-top lens. This component is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of equivalent substitute parts for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. The part operates at 2.2V with 90mA current rating and delivers 100mcd luminous intensity at a peak wavelength of 565nm. Substitute parts must maintain compatibility across electrical specifications, mechanical form factor, and mounting interface to ensure direct replacement capability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the HLMP2885 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

Electrical Compatibility Criteria:

• Voltage Rating: 2.2V (must match)
• Color: Green (must match)
• Wavelength - Peak: 565nm (must match)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (must match)

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Configuration: Bar - Single, DIP (must match)
• Lens Style: Rectangle with Flat Top (must match)

Regulatory & Environmental Criteria:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (must match)
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited) (must match)

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: HLMP-2885 (Broadcom Limited) and HLMP-2820 (Broadcom Limited). The HLMP-2885 from Broadcom is a direct equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications but differs in current rating and millicandela output. The HLMP-2820 maintains voltage, color, and wavelength compatibility but operates in a 4-wide bar configuration rather than single configuration, making it suitable only for applications where multi-element bar substitution is acceptable.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

HLMP-2885 (Broadcom Limited) - Primary Substitute:

The HLMP-2885 from Broadcom Limited is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete Everlight HLMP2885. Both parts share identical configuration (Bar - Single, DIP), voltage rating (2.2V), color (Green), wavelength (565nm), lens style (Rectangle with Flat Top), and mounting type (Through Hole). Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). The Broadcom variant is currently in active production status with 1617 pieces in stock, ensuring procurement continuity. The primary difference is current rating: the Broadcom part operates at 30mA versus the Everlight part's 90mA, with both delivering 100mcd luminous intensity. This lower current consumption in the Broadcom variant may require circuit design adjustment but provides improved power efficiency.

HLMP-2820 (Broadcom Limited) - Secondary Substitute (Configuration-Dependent):

The HLMP-2820 from Broadcom Limited maintains electrical compatibility (2.2V, Green, 565nm wavelength) and regulatory compliance (ROHS3, MSL 1) but differs in mechanical configuration. This part is a 4-wide bar DIP unit rather than single configuration, with reduced lens dimensions (8.89mm x 3.81mm versus 19.05mm x 8.89mm) and lower millicandela rating (25mcd versus 100mcd). Selection of this part is appropriate only for applications where multi-element bar indication is functionally acceptable and where the reduced brightness output does not compromise visibility requirements. Current rating is 30mA per element.

Both Broadcom substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and carry REACH Unaffected status, meeting regulatory requirements for the original Everlight component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HLMP-2885 (Broadcom) directly replace HLMP2885 (Everlight) without circuit modification?

A: The Broadcom HLMP-2885 maintains identical electrical voltage (2.2V), color (Green), wavelength (565nm), configuration (Bar - Single, DIP), lens style (Rectangle with Flat Top), and mounting type (Through Hole). However, the current rating differs: Broadcom operates at 30mA versus Everlight's 90mA. Circuit current-limiting resistor values must be recalculated to accommodate the lower current specification. Luminous intensity remains equivalent at 100mcd for both parts.

Q: What is the key difference between HLMP-2885 and HLMP-2820 substitutes?

A: The HLMP-2885 is a single-element bar configuration, while the HLMP-2820 is a 4-wide bar configuration. The HLMP-2820 also features smaller lens dimensions (8.89mm x 3.81mm) and lower brightness output (25mcd). Both maintain 2.2V voltage rating, green color, and 565nm wavelength. Selection depends on whether the application requires single or multi-element indication.

Q: Are both Broadcom substitutes suitable for new designs?

A: Both HLMP-2885 and HLMP-2820 from Broadcom Limited carry Active product status, indicating current production and long-term availability. Both are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected. The HLMP-2885 is recommended for direct replacement of the obsolete Everlight part. The HLMP-2820 is suitable for new designs where multi-element bar indication is functionally required.

Q: What packaging is available for substitute parts?

A: Both Broadcom substitute parts are supplied in Tube packaging. The HLMP-2885 has 1617 pieces in stock, and the HLMP-2820 has 1615 pieces in stock.

Q: Do the substitute parts maintain the same through-hole mounting interface?

A: Yes. Both HLMP-2885 and HLMP-2820 from Broadcom Limited use Through Hole mounting type, identical to the original Everlight HLMP2885. PCB footprint compatibility depends on lens size specifications: the HLMP-2885 features 19.05mm x 8.89mm lens dimensions, while the HLMP-2820 features 8.89mm x 3.81mm dimensions.
