LTL-4231NHNP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LTL-4231NHNP is a 3mm LED Circuit Board Indicator manufactured by Lite-On Inc., featuring a single green diffused lens with a domed top design. This component operates at 2.1V with a 30mA current rating and delivers 12.6mcd brightness at a 60° viewing angle. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives that maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for seamless circuit board integration.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the LTL-4231NHNP are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The following criteria determine substitution eligibility:

Critical Parameters for Substitution:

  • Color: Green
  • Wavelength - Peak: 565nm
  • Current Rating: 30mA
  • Voltage Rating: 2.1V
  • Millicandela Rating: 12.6mcd
  • Viewing Angle: 60°
  • Lens Type: Diffused, Tinted
  • Lens Style: Round with Domed Top
  • Lens Size: 3mm, T-1
  • Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
  • Configuration: Single

Two substitute parts meet these criteria and are available as active alternatives to the obsolete LTL-4231NHNP.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both LTL-4231NHBP and LTL-155GHA are qualified substitutes for the obsolete LTL-4231NHNP based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters.

LTL-4231NHBP is the direct substitute, maintaining the same base product number (LTL-4231) and offering improved compliance status. This part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, with reduced moisture sensitivity (MSL 1 vs. MSL 2A). Inventory availability is substantial at 8,300 pieces.

LTL-155GHA is the manufacturer-recommended alternative, also active and ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. This part carries a different base product number (LTL-155) but maintains all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. Inventory availability is 904 pieces.

Both substitutes are suitable for direct replacement in applications requiring the LTL-4231NHNP specifications. Selection between them may be based on packaging requirements, inventory availability, or supply chain considerations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LTL-4231NHBP and LTL-155GHA be used interchangeably with LTL-4231NHNP?

A: Yes. Both parts match all critical electrical and mechanical parameters: 565nm wavelength, 30mA current, 2.1V voltage, 12.6mcd brightness, 60° viewing angle, 3mm T-1 through-hole right-angle mounting, and diffused green lens with domed top design.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are base product number (LTL-4231 vs. LTL-155), moisture sensitivity level (both MSL 1 vs. original MSL 2A), and inventory availability. Both are active products with ROHS3 compliance.

Q: Does packaging differ between the substitutes?

A: Both substitute parts are supplied in Tray packaging. The original LTL-4231NHNP packaging specification was not provided in the technical data.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the substitutes?

A: LTL-4231NHBP is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected. LTL-155GHA is ROHS3 compliant. Both meet current regulatory requirements for circuit board indicator applications.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity implication?

A: Both substitutes have MSL 1 (Unlimited storage), compared to the original MSL 2A (4 weeks). This represents improved handling and storage flexibility with no negative impact on application performance.
