HLMP6405AZR Yellow LED Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HLMP6405AZR is an active-status yellow LED indication component manufactured by Everlight Electronics Co Ltd. It is configured as a 2V discrete LED with Surface Mount packaging in a Z-Bend lead configuration. This part is designed for applications requiring yellow light indication at 585nm peak wavelength with 12mcd brightness output.

Substitute parts are necessary when addressing supply chain constraints, packaging format requirements for specific assembly processes, or when alternative manufacturers' stock availability provides operational advantages while maintaining electrical and optical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the HLMP6405AZR is determined by the following criteria:

Electrical Compatibility Requirements:

• Forward voltage (Vf) must be 2V
• Test current must be 10mA
• Color must be Yellow
• Wavelength - Peak must be 585nm or within the yellow spectrum range (583-585nm acceptable)

Optical Compatibility Requirements:

• Lens color must be Colorless
• Lens transparency must be Clear
• Lens style must be Round with Domed Top
• Viewing angle tolerance: 25° to 28° acceptable

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant status required
• Product Status must be Active

Packaging Considerations: Substitute parts may differ in mounting type (Surface Mount variants with different lead configurations) and package format (Tape & Reel, Cut Tape, or Bulk). These differences do not affect electrical or optical function but impact assembly process compatibility.

The HLMP6405AZR base part number HLMP6405 encompasses multiple lead configuration variants manufactured by Broadcom Limited, all meeting the above criteria.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Surface Mount Substitutes (HLMP-6405-J0011, HLMP-6405-J0021):

The HLMP-6405-J0011 and HLMP-6405-J0021 are surface mount variants suitable for direct substitution in PCB assembly processes. Both maintain the 2V forward voltage, 10mA test current, and yellow color specification. The primary differences are lead configuration (Gull Wing vs. Yoke Bend) and lens size (1.91mm vs. 1.78mm diameter). Both are ROHS3 compliant and active-status products.

The HLMP-6405-J0011 (Gull Wing configuration) provides 20mcd brightness and 28° viewing angle, exceeding the HLMP6405AZR specifications. The HLMP-6405-J0021 (Yoke Bend configuration) similarly provides 20mcd brightness and 28° viewing angle.

Through-Hole Alternative (HLMP-6405):

The HLMP-6405 (Broadcom axial through-hole variant) is electrically compatible but requires different assembly process integration due to its Through Hole, Axial mounting type. This part is suitable only for applications where through-hole assembly is specified. It provides 20mcd brightness and 28° viewing angle.

Compliance Status:

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and active product status, meeting regulatory and supply chain continuity requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HLMP-6405-J0011 replace HLMP6405AZR in a surface mount assembly?

A: Yes. Both are surface mount yellow LEDs with 2V forward voltage and 10mA test current. The HLMP-6405-J0011 uses Gull Wing lead configuration instead of Z-Bend. Verify PCB pad layout compatibility with the Gull Wing footprint before substitution.

Q: What is the difference between HLMP-6405-J0011 and HLMP-6405-J0021?

A: Both are Broadcom surface mount yellow LEDs with identical electrical specifications (2V, 10mA, 20mcd, 28° viewing angle). The primary difference is lead configuration: HLMP-6405-J0011 uses Gull Wing leads, while HLMP-6405-J0021 uses Yoke Bend leads. Lens size differs slightly (1.91mm vs. 1.78mm diameter). Selection depends on PCB footprint requirements.

Q: Why does the HLMP-6405-J0021 have a smaller lens diameter (1.78mm) than HLMP6405AZR (1.90mm)?

A: Lens diameter is a physical design parameter that does not affect electrical function or optical wavelength output. Both maintain 585nm peak wavelength and yellow color specification. Verify mechanical clearance in the application before substitution.

Q: Is the HLMP-6405 (through-hole axial variant) suitable for surface mount assembly?

A: No. The HLMP-6405 is designed for through-hole, axial mounting and requires different PCB assembly processes. It is not suitable for surface mount applications. Use HLMP-6405-J0011 or HLMP-6405-J0021 for surface mount requirements.

Q: What is the brightness difference between HLMP6405AZR (12mcd) and the Broadcom substitutes (20mcd)?

A: The Broadcom variants provide higher brightness output (20mcd vs. 12mcd). This represents increased light intensity while maintaining the same 2V forward voltage and 10mA test current. Verify that increased brightness does not cause optical interference in the application.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. HLMP6405AZR, HLMP-6405, HLMP-6405-J0011, and HLMP-6405-J0021 are all ROHS3 compliant and active-status products.

Q: What packaging formats are available for these yellow LEDs?

A: HLMP6405AZR is supplied in standard packaging. HLMP-6405 is available in Bulk. HLMP-6405-J0011 is available in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel®. HLMP-6405-J0021 is available in Tape & Reel (TR). Select based on assembly process requirements and order quantity.
