Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MPC5HD5VW24.0 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Panel cutout shape and dimensions (Round, 0.32" / 8.13mm)
• Lens form factor (5mm, T-1 3/4)
• Lens style (Round with Domed Top)

Optical Characteristics:

• Lamp color (Red)
• Lens transparency (Diffused)

Electrical Parameters:

• Voltage rating compatibility
• Current rating compatibility

Physical Configuration:

• Termination style (Wire Leads)
• Lead length

The MPC5RDW12.0 shares identical mechanical and optical characteristics with the main part, including panel cutout dimensions, lens form factor, and diffused red lens properties. However, this substitute operates at 2.1V with 20mA maximum current, differing from the 5V rating of the MPC5HD5VW24.0. The lead length is reduced to 12 inches (304.80mm) compared to the 24-inch leads of the main part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MPC5HD5VW24.0 is classified as obsolete. The MPC5RDW12.0 is the identified substitute from Bivar Inc.'s active product portfolio and maintains mechanical and optical compatibility through identical panel cutout dimensions, lens form factor, and diffused red lens characteristics.

Critical Considerations:

1. Voltage Differential: The MPC5RDW12.0 operates at 2.1V versus the 5V rating of the main part. Circuit design modifications are required to accommodate this voltage difference.

2. Lead Length: The substitute provides 12-inch wire leads compared to 24-inch leads on the main part. Panel layout and wiring routing must accommodate this reduced lead length.

3. Compliance Status: The MPC5RDW12.0 carries ROHS3 compliance certification and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components.

4. Optical Characteristics: Peak wavelength differs (700nm versus 625nm) and viewing angle increases from 40° to 45°. These variations remain within the red LED spectrum and diffused lens category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MPC5RDW12.0 directly replace the MPC5HD5VW24.0 without circuit modifications?

A: No. The MPC5RDW12.0 operates at 2.1V with 20mA maximum current, while the MPC5HD5VW24.0 is rated for 5V. Circuit design changes are required to accommodate the voltage difference. Additionally, the reduced lead length (12 inches versus 24 inches) requires panel layout verification.

Q: Are the panel cutout dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts feature a round panel cutout of 0.32 inches (8.13mm) diameter, allowing mechanical interchangeability at the panel interface.

Q: What is the difference in peak wavelength between these components?

A: The MPC5HD5VW24.0 has a peak wavelength of 625nm, while the MPC5RDW12.0 operates at 700nm. Both wavelengths fall within the red LED spectrum; however, the 700nm wavelength produces a slightly deeper red appearance.

Q: Does the MPC5RDW12.0 meet current regulatory compliance standards?

A: Yes. The MPC5RDW12.0 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current electronic component regulatory requirements.

Q: How do the viewing angles compare?

A: The MPC5HD5VW24.0 provides a 40° viewing angle, while the MPC5RDW12.0 offers a 45° viewing angle. The substitute provides a slightly wider viewing cone.

Q: What is the inventory status of these parts?

A: The MPC5HD5VW24.0 (obsolete) has 679 pieces in stock. The MPC5RDW12.0 (active) has 1,473 pieces in stock, ensuring availability for new designs and production requirements.
