MV8306 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MV8306 is a yellow LED indication component manufactured by Everlight Electronics Co Ltd, designed for through-hole mounting applications. This T-1 3/4 form factor LED operates at a forward voltage of 2.1V with a test current of 20mA and delivers 3500 millicandela of luminous intensity. The component is classified as Active product status and maintains full RoHS3 compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and regulatory compliance can be maintained across different manufacturers while preserving the core functional requirements of yellow LED indication in through-hole mounting configurations.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Closest Electrical Match):

SLI-570YT3F and SLI-570Y2T3F from Rohm Semiconductor maintain identical forward voltage (2.1V), matching wavelength peak (591nm), identical viewing angle (20°), and equivalent millicandela rating (5200mcd). Both parts are RoHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating and through-hole radial package configuration. These parts provide the closest electrical and mechanical equivalence to the MV8306.

SSL-LX5093SYC from Lumex Opto/Components Inc. matches forward voltage (2.1V) and wavelength peak (590nm) with RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. The primary difference is reduced millicandela rating (1000mcd versus 3500mcd) and increased viewing angle (30° versus 20°), suitable for applications where lower intensity and wider viewing angle are acceptable.

Secondary Substitutes (Compatible Operating Range):

LTL2R3KSK from Lite-On Inc. operates within the acceptable forward voltage range (2.05V) with wavelength peak of 591nm and RoHS3 compliance. Millicandela rating of 1150mcd and viewing angle of 30° represent trade-offs in intensity and angular distribution compared to the MV8306.

OVLFY3C7 from TT Electronics/Optek Technology operates at 2V forward voltage with 589nm wavelength peak and RoHS3 compliance. The 7400mcd rating exceeds the MV8306 specification, suitable for applications requiring higher luminous intensity.

Not Recommended for Direct Substitution:

5219466F from Dialight exhibits significantly reduced millicandela rating (140mcd) and different lens size (4.83mm diameter), making it unsuitable for equivalent performance replacement.

OVLGY0C9B9 from TT Electronics/Optek Technology, while meeting electrical parameters, features an 8° viewing angle that deviates substantially from the MV8306 specification, limiting its application compatibility.

All orange-colored variants (HLMP-EJ30-NR0DD, WP7113SECK/J4, SSL-LX5093SOC) are excluded due to color mismatch with the yellow specification of the MV8306.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute the MV8306 with an orange LED variant?

A: No. The MV8306 is specified as yellow with a 590nm peak wavelength. Orange variants operate at different wavelengths (605nm to 610nm range) and are not functionally equivalent for applications requiring yellow indication.

Q: What is the acceptable forward voltage range for MV8306 substitutes?

A: The MV8306 operates at 2.1V typical. Acceptable substitutes maintain forward voltage between 2.0V and 2.2V at 20mA test current. This range ensures compatibility with standard LED circuit designs without requiring recalibration of current-limiting resistors.

Q: Does the viewing angle affect substitution compatibility?

A: Viewing angle is an important parameter but not critical for substitution. The MV8306 specifies 20°. Substitutes with 30° viewing angle provide wider light distribution, suitable for applications where broader visibility is beneficial. Substitutes with narrower angles (8°) are not recommended unless the application specifically requires concentrated light output.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All identified substitute parts maintain RoHS3 compliance matching the MV8306 specification. All parts also maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What is the significance of the T-1 3/4 form factor?

A: T-1 3/4 designates a 5mm diameter lens with specific mechanical dimensions. This form factor is critical for through-hole PCB mounting compatibility. All substitute parts maintain this form factor with radial package configuration and through-hole mounting type.

Q: Can I use SLI-570YT3F as a direct replacement for MV8306?

A: Yes. SLI-570YT3F from Rohm Semiconductor matches the MV8306 in forward voltage (2.1V), wavelength peak (591nm), viewing angle (20°), and mechanical form factor. The higher millicandela rating (5200mcd versus 3500mcd) represents improved luminous intensity without affecting circuit compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between SLI-570YT3F and SLI-570Y2T3F?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent with identical forward voltage (2.1V), millicandela rating (5200mcd), wavelength peak (591nm), and viewing angle (20°). The designation difference reflects internal product line organization by the manufacturer but does not affect substitution compatibility.

Q: How does millicandela rating affect substitution decisions?

A: Millicandela rating determines luminous intensity. The MV8306 specifies 3500mcd. Substitutes with higher ratings (OVLFY3C7 at 7400mcd, OVLGY0C9B9 at 14000mcd) provide brighter indication. Substitutes with lower ratings (SSL-LX5093SYC at 1000mcd, 5219466F at 140mcd) provide dimmer indication. Selection depends on application requirements for visibility and power consumption.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for substitute selection?

A: Inventory levels are provided for reference. OVLGY0C9B9 maintains the highest inventory (79,595 pcs), followed by OVLFY3C7 (41,918 pcs) and SSL-LX5093SYC (39,797 pcs). MV8306 inventory is 982 pcs. Inventory status does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility but may influence procurement timelines.

Q: What packaging formats are available for substitute parts?

A: Substitute parts are available in Bulk packaging format. The MV8306 is specified with "-" packaging designation. All parts maintain radial package configuration suitable for through-hole PCB assembly processes.
