MV6053 LED Red Diffused T-1 3/4 Through Hole - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The onsemi MV6053 is a red diffused LED indicator in T-1 3/4 (5mm) through-hole package, rated at 2.2V forward voltage with 0.5mcd brightness. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production support. The MV6053 serves standard LED indication applications requiring low-brightness red light output with diffused lens characteristics.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MV6053 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Physical Form Factor: T-1 3/4 (5mm) through-hole radial package with compatible height envelope
Optical Characteristics: Red color, diffused lens, compatible wavelength range (630–660nm peak)
Electrical Ratings: Forward voltage tolerance (1.9V–2.2V), test current compatibility (10–20mA)
Brightness Level: Millicandela rating within acceptable range for indication applications (0.5–8mcd)
Viewing Angle: Minimum 60° for general indication use
Compliance Status: RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status for modern production

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Category A - Direct Mechanical & Electrical Compatibility: Parts maintaining T-1 3/4 form factor, similar forward voltage (1.9V–2.2V), and comparable brightness levels. These include Broadcom HLMP-3301 series variants and Würth Elektronik 151051RS11000.

Category B - Form Factor Compatible with Voltage Derating: Visual Communications Company 4302H1 series parts with T-1 3/4 form factor but higher forward voltage ratings (5V, 12V), suitable for applications with series resistor networks or higher supply voltages.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Broadcom HLMP-3301 Series)

The Broadcom HLMP-3301 family represents the most direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the MV6053. All variants maintain the T-1 3/4 form factor, operate at 1.9V forward voltage (within 0.3V of the original), and are rated for 10mA test current. These parts are active products with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory compliance for new designs.

HLMP-3301-D0000 and HLMP-3301-D0002 (2.1mcd brightness) provide the closest brightness match to the MV6053 (0.5mcd) among available substitutes. HLMP-3301-F0001 and HLMP-3301-F0002 (5.4mcd brightness) offer higher brightness for applications requiring increased visibility. Packaging variants (Bulk, Tape & Reel, Cut Tape) accommodate different production volumes and assembly processes.

Secondary Substitute (Würth Elektronik 151051RS11000)

The Würth Elektronik 151051RS11000 maintains T-1 3/4 form factor compatibility and operates at 2.1V forward voltage, closely matching the MV6053 electrical characteristics. However, the 30mcd brightness rating significantly exceeds the original specification, making this part suitable only for applications where increased brightness is acceptable or desired. This part is active and RoHS3 compliant.

Alternative Substitutes (Visual Communications Company 4302H1 Series)

The VCC 4302H1-5V and 4302H1-12V parts maintain T-1 3/4 form factor but operate at higher forward voltages (5V and 12V respectively). These parts are suitable for direct replacement only in circuits designed for higher supply voltages or where series resistor networks provide voltage regulation. Both variants are active products with RoHS3 compliance. The 8mcd brightness rating exceeds the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I directly replace MV6053 with HLMP-3301 without circuit modification?

A: Yes. The HLMP-3301 series operates at 1.9V forward voltage compared to the MV6053's 2.2V, a difference of 0.3V that falls within typical LED tolerance ranges. Both are rated for 10–20mA test current and maintain identical T-1 3/4 through-hole form factors. No circuit modification is required for standard indication applications.

Q: Why does the Würth Elektronik 151051RS11000 have higher brightness (30mcd) than the MV6053 (0.5mcd)?

A: The 151051RS11000 is designed for higher-visibility indication applications. While it maintains compatible form factor and similar forward voltage (2.1V), the increased brightness results from different LED die specifications. Use this part only if your application can tolerate or benefit from increased light output.

Q: Are the VCC 4302H1-5V and 4302H1-12V direct replacements?

A: These parts are form-factor compatible but electrically different. The 5V and 12V forward voltage ratings require circuits designed for those supply voltages or the use of series resistor networks for voltage regulation. They are not direct pin-for-pin replacements in circuits designed for the MV6053's 2.2V rating.

Q: What is the difference between HLMP-3301 packaging variants (Bulk, Tape & Reel, Cut Tape)?

A: Packaging variants accommodate different manufacturing processes. Bulk packaging suits low-volume manual assembly. Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging provides intermediate quantities for semi-automated processes. All variants are electrically and mechanically identical.

Q: Does the slightly higher height of substitute parts (9.19mm vs. 8.89mm) affect PCB layout?

A: The height difference of 0.3mm is negligible for standard through-hole applications and falls within typical PCB clearance tolerances. Verify clearance in your specific mechanical design if space constraints exist.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry RoHS3 compliance certification and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in most markets.
