Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MV6352 are identified based on strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Criteria:

• Color: Yellow (all substitutes must emit yellow light)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (all substitutes must use radial lead configuration)
• Lens Size: 5mm T-1 3/4 form factor (mechanical fit requirement)
• Package / Case: Radial (lead configuration compatibility)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement)
• Product Status: Active (availability assurance)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Voltage - Forward (Vf): Range 1.9V to 2.2V (within typical circuit tolerance)
• Current - Test: 2mA to 20mA (different operating points acceptable)
• Millicandela Rating: 1.8mcd to 140mcd (brightness variation acceptable based on application)
• Viewing Angle: 24° to 50° (visibility angle variation acceptable)
• Wavelength - Peak: 583nm to 585nm (yellow spectrum consistency)
• Lens Transparency: Clear or Diffused (both acceptable for indication)
• Height (Max): 8.89mm to 9.57mm (within standard T-1 3/4 envelope)

The two identified substitutes meet all mandatory criteria while offering different performance characteristics suitable for various application scenarios.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MV6352 (Everlight Electronics Co Ltd) - Primary Specification

Use the MV6352 when the application requires standard yellow LED indication with 90mcd brightness at 20mA test current and 28° viewing angle. This component is active, ROHS3 compliant, and maintains unlimited moisture sensitivity rating suitable for general industrial applications.

4308H7 (Visual Communications Company - VCC) - High Brightness Alternative

The 4308H7 provides increased brightness output at 140mcd while maintaining identical lens size (5mm T-1 3/4), mounting type (through hole), and test current (20mA). Forward voltage is 2.2V compared to 2.1V in the MV6352. Viewing angle is narrower at 24°. This substitute is suitable for applications requiring enhanced visibility with concentrated beam characteristics. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are maintained. This part is active and available.

5219321F (Dialight 521 Series) - Low Current, Wide Angle Alternative

The 5219321F operates at significantly lower current (2mA test versus 20mA) with reduced brightness output (1.8mcd). Forward voltage is lower at 1.9V. This component features diffused lens transparency and wider viewing angle (50°). Lens size is 4.83mm diameter, which remains within T-1 3/4 form factor envelope. This substitute is suitable for low-power indication applications requiring wide-angle visibility. ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and active product status are confirmed.

All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, active products with MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, confirming regulatory and environmental compliance for equivalent substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can the 4308H7 directly replace the MV6352 in all applications?

The 4308H7 is mechanically and electrically compatible as a direct substitute. Both use identical 5mm T-1 3/4 through-hole radial packages. Forward voltage difference (2.2V vs 2.1V) is within typical circuit tolerance. The primary difference is increased brightness (140mcd vs 90mcd) and narrower viewing angle (24° vs 28°). Substitution is valid when higher brightness and concentrated beam are acceptable or beneficial.

Q2: What are the key differences between the 5219321F and the MV6352?

The 5219321F operates at substantially lower current (2mA vs 20mA) and produces lower brightness (1.8mcd vs 90mcd). Forward voltage is lower (1.9V vs 2.1V). The lens is diffused rather than clear, providing wider viewing angle (50° vs 28°). Lens diameter is 4.83mm versus 5mm, but both conform to T-1 3/4 form factor. This substitute is suitable only for low-power indication applications where reduced brightness and wide-angle visibility are required.

Q3: Are all three parts mechanically interchangeable?

All three parts use through-hole radial lead configuration and 5mm T-1 3/4 form factor, making them mechanically interchangeable in standard PCB mounting holes. Height variation (8.89mm to 9.57mm) is within acceptable tolerance for T-1 3/4 envelope. Physical substitution is straightforward; however, electrical circuit parameters must be verified for each application.

Q4: What compliance certifications apply to all substitute parts?

All three parts (MV6352, 4308H7, 5219321F) are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. These certifications confirm environmental and regulatory compliance for equivalent substitution in compliant assemblies.

Q5: Which substitute should be selected for maximum brightness?

The 4308H7 provides the highest brightness output at 140mcd, compared to 90mcd for the MV6352 and 1.8mcd for the 5219321F. Select the 4308H7 when enhanced visibility is required within a concentrated beam pattern (24° viewing angle).

Q6: Which substitute should be selected for wide-angle visibility?

The 5219321F offers the widest viewing angle at 50°, compared to 28° for the MV6352 and 24° for the 4308H7. This part is suitable for applications requiring broad-angle indication visibility, though brightness output is significantly reduced.

Q7: Can the 5219321F operate at 20mA like the MV6352?

The 5219321F is specified for 2mA test current. Operating at 20mA would exceed design parameters and is not recommended. This part is designed for low-power indication circuits and should not be substituted into 20mA applications.

Q8: What is the wavelength difference between these parts?

MV6352 has peak wavelength of 585nm, while both 4308H7 and 5219321F have peak wavelength of 583nm. This 2nm difference is within yellow spectrum consistency and does not affect functional color perception or application compatibility.

Q9: Are there inventory considerations for these substitutes?

MV6352: 1080 pcs in stock. 4308H7: 4869 pcs in stock. 5219321F: 1794 pcs in stock. All parts are available as new original components. Inventory levels may influence substitution decisions based on supply requirements.

Q10: What is the primary reason to substitute the MV6352?

Substitution is appropriate when application requirements differ from the MV6352 specification (higher brightness, lower power consumption, wider viewing angle) or when inventory availability of the primary part is constrained. All substitutes maintain mechanical compatibility and regulatory compliance.
