Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The HSMH-H150 is identified as the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the QSMH-C152. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:

Substitution Basis:

• Identical manufacturer (Broadcom Limited)
• Identical product category (LED Indication - Discrete)
• Identical ECCN classification (EAR99)
• Identical HTSUS code (8541.41.0000)
• Active product status (HSMH-H150) replacing obsolete status (QSMH-C152)

The HSMH-H150 maintains compliance with the same regulatory and trade classifications, ensuring compatibility within supply chain and export control frameworks.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HSMH-H150 is the designated substitute for the obsolete QSMH-C152 based on manufacturer recommendation and regulatory alignment. Both components share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8541.41.0000) classifications, confirming compliance equivalence for export control and tariff purposes.

The HSMH-H150 maintains active product status with substantial inventory availability (24,917 Pcs), ensuring long-term procurement viability compared to the obsolete QSMH-C152 (731 Pcs remaining stock). The transition to the HSMH-H150 is supported by identical manufacturer origin and product category classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the QSMH-C152 being phased out? A: The QSMH-C152 is classified as obsolete. The HSMH-H150 is the active equivalent designated by Broadcom Limited for continued procurement and design implementation.

Q: Are the QSMH-C152 and HSMH-H150 electrically equivalent? A: Both components are discrete LED indication devices from Broadcom Limited with identical regulatory classifications (ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8541.41.0000).
