SC56-11YWA Equivalent & Substitute Parts
Part Overview
The SC56-11YWA is a single-character 7-segment LED display module manufactured by Kingbright. This yellow LED display operates at 2.1V forward voltage with a 20mA test current and features a 0.56-inch character height in a 10-DIP package configuration. The device is classified as Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).
Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are maintained across critical parameters including display type, character configuration, common pin architecture, package format, and operating voltage specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution eligibility for the SC56-11YWA is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:
Critical Matching Parameters:
- Display Type: 7-Segment configuration
- Character Count: Single character (1)
- Character Height: 0.56 inches (14.22mm)
- Common Pin Type: Common Cathode
- Color: Yellow
- Forward Voltage: 2.1V nominal
- Test Current: 20mA
- Package: 10-DIP (0.600", 15.24mm) footprint
- Product Status: Active
- Compliance: RoHS3 Compliant
The HDSP-5703 manufactured by Broadcom Limited meets all critical matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. Both devices share identical electrical operating characteristics, package footprint, and regulatory compliance status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Both the SC56-11YWA and HDSP-5703 are Active product status components with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected designation. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than technical performance differentiation.
The SC56-11YWA (Kingbright) and HDSP-5703 (Broadcom Limited) are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for applications requiring single-character yellow 7-segment LED display modules in 10-DIP package format with 2.1V forward voltage operation.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the HDSP-5703 replace the SC56-11YWA in existing designs?
A: Yes. Both devices share identical electrical specifications (2.1V forward voltage, 20mA test current), common cathode configuration, 0.56-inch character height, and 10-DIP package footprint. No circuit modifications are required.
Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts?
A: The overall housing dimensions differ slightly. The SC56-11YWA measures 0.750" H x 0.500" W x 0.315" D, while the HDSP-5703 measures 0.670" H x 0.495" W x 0.315" D. Both maintain the same 10-DIP footprint and package pitch. Verify mechanical clearance in your specific application layout.
Q: Do these parts have different brightness ratings?
A: Yes. The SC56-11YWA has a millicandela rating of 6.5mcd at 590nm peak wavelength, while the HDSP-5703 has 1.8mcd at 583nm peak wavelength. Both operate at identical forward voltage and test current. Application brightness requirements determine which part is appropriate.
Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?
A: Yes. Both the SC56-11YWA and HDSP-5703 are ROHS3 Compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating and REACH Unaffected status.
Q: What is the maximum power dissipation for each part?
A: The SC56-11YWA has a maximum power dissipation of 75mW, while the HDSP-5703 has 80mW maximum power dissipation. Both values are within typical thermal design margins for 10-DIP package applications.
