MV5460 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MV5460 is a green LED indicator in T-1 through-hole package manufactured by onsemi. This component is designed for discrete LED indication applications with a forward voltage of 2.1V and 12mcd brightness rating. The MV5460 is classified as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. Substitute parts must maintain compatibility with the original electrical characteristics and mechanical form factor while meeting current availability and compliance requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MV5460 are classified based on the following substitution criteria:

Direct Substitutes maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Forward voltage (Vf): 2.1V
• Lens size: 3mm, T-1
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Package: Radial
• Color: Green
• Lens transparency: Clear

Parametric Equivalents share the same electrical characteristics and form factor but may have variations in brightness (millicandela rating), viewing angle, or wavelength specifications. These parts are suitable when the application can tolerate differences in luminous intensity or optical characteristics.

Functional Alternatives maintain green color indication and T-1 through-hole mounting but may differ in lens transparency (diffused vs. clear) or brightness levels. These are applicable when the primary requirement is green LED indication without strict optical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Active Production (Recommended Primary Substitutes):

HLMP-1520 and HLMP-1540 from Broadcom Limited are active products with ROHS3 compliance. Both maintain T-1 through-hole radial packages and green color indication. HLMP-1520 operates at 2.1V with 22mcd brightness and 45° viewing angle, providing closest electrical compatibility to MV5460. HLMP-1540 operates at 2.2V with higher brightness (45mcd) and narrower viewing angle (24°), suitable for applications requiring increased luminous intensity.

For Continued Support (Secondary Substitutes):

SLI-343MC3F from Rohm Semiconductor is an active product with ROHS3 compliance. It operates at 2.1V matching the original forward voltage and provides 200mcd brightness with 40° viewing angle. The yellow-green color (572nm peak wavelength) differs from pure green but maintains green spectrum indication capability.

For Legacy Systems (Tertiary Options):

SLI-343MG3F is marked "Not For New Designs" but remains available with ROHS3 compliance. It provides green color with diffused lens transparency, 180mcd brightness, and 2.1V forward voltage. HLMP-1540-H0002 is available in Cut Tape packaging for applications requiring alternative packaging formats.

Compliance Considerations:

All recommended substitutes maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity and REACH Unaffected status, matching the original MV5460 compliance profile. ROHS3 compliance is available across all active substitute options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HLMP-1540 directly replace MV5460 in existing designs?

A: HLMP-1540 is mechanically and functionally compatible as a through-hole T-1 green LED. However, it operates at 2.2V forward voltage (versus 2.1V for MV5460) and has a narrower 24° viewing angle compared to 45°. Circuit designs must accommodate the higher forward voltage. Applications requiring wide viewing angle should use HLMP-1520 instead.

Q: What is the difference between HLMP-1520 and HLMP-1540?

A: Both are Broadcom T-1 green LEDs in radial packages. HLMP-1520 operates at 2.1V with 22mcd brightness and 45° viewing angle. HLMP-1540 operates at 2.2V with 45mcd brightness and 24° viewing angle. HLMP-1520 provides closer electrical match to MV5460; HLMP-1540 provides higher brightness for applications requiring increased luminous intensity.

Q: Are SLI-343 series parts suitable substitutes?

A: SLI-343MG3F and SLI-343MC3F maintain 2.1V forward voltage and through-hole radial mounting. SLI-343MG3F has diffused lens transparency versus clear, affecting light distribution. SLI-343MC3F is yellow-green rather than pure green. Both provide significantly higher brightness (180-200mcd) than MV5460 (12mcd). These are suitable when brightness requirements exceed the original specification.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: HLMP-1520 and HLMP-1540 are available in Bulk packaging. HLMP-1540-H0002 is available in Cut Tape (CT) packaging for applications requiring tape-and-reel format. All maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications within their respective part numbers.

Q: Are there height restrictions when substituting?

A: MV5460 has maximum height of 6.30mm. HLMP-1520 and HLMP-1540 have maximum height of 6.35mm (0.05mm difference). SLI-343 series parts have maximum height of 5.60mm. Height differences are minimal and typically do not affect PCB layout compatibility for standard through-hole applications.

Q: What is the current test rating difference between MV5460 and HLMP-1520?

A: MV5460 is tested at 20mA; HLMP-1520 is tested at 10mA. Both operate at 2.1V forward voltage. The lower test current for HLMP-1520 indicates different brightness measurement conditions but does not restrict operation at 20mA in circuit applications.
