Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The LEDM-1-03 has one parametric equivalent substitute: LEDM-3-03. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

• LED Type: T1 3/4 (must match exactly)
• Length: 0.118" (3.00mm) (must match exactly)
• Color: Black (must match exactly)
• Material: PVC (must match exactly)
• Packaging: Bulk (must match exactly)

The LEDM-3-03 meets all these criteria and is therefore a direct parametric equivalent. Both parts share identical functional specifications and are interchangeable in applications requiring T1 3/4 LED standoffs with 3.00mm height in black PVC.

Parameter Comparison

Both parts are RoHS Compliant and carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability: LEDM-3-03 currently has 1831 pieces in stock compared to 1670 pieces for LEDM-1-03.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LEDM-3-03 be used as a direct replacement for LEDM-1-03?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical LED type (T1 3/4), length (0.118"/3.00mm), color (Black), material (PVC), and packaging (Bulk). They are fully interchangeable.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between LEDM-1-03 and LEDM-3-03?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS Compliance status, REACH status (REACH Unaffected), and Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1 - Unlimited).

Q: What is the significance of the LED type T1 3/4 in substitution?

A: The T1 3/4 designation specifies the LED form factor this spacer accommodates. Substitutes must match this specification exactly to ensure proper mechanical fit and alignment in the assembly.

Q: Does packaging type affect substitution eligibility?

A: Yes. Both the main part and substitute must use identical packaging (Bulk in this case) to ensure compatibility with assembly processes and handling requirements.

Q: What are the critical dimensions for this LED spacer?

A: The length of 0.118" (3.00mm) is the critical dimension provided. This measurement determines the vertical spacing of the LED component on the PCB.
