SD5410-001 Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The SD5410-001 is a phototransistor optical sensor manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions, designed for 880nm infrared detection applications. This component features a top-view orientation in a TO-46-3 metal can package and is rated for operation across -55°C to 125°C. The product is currently classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system support, maintenance, and new design implementations where 880nm photodetection is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SD5410-001 is determined by alignment across the following critical parameters:

Functional Compatibility Criteria:

• Sensor type: Phototransistor with top-view orientation
• Mounting configuration: Through-hole technology
• Package family: Metal can variants (TO-46-3, TO-206AA, TO-18-3)
• Voltage rating: Collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 15V or greater
• Operating temperature range: Minimum -55°C to 125°C coverage
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS and REACH status alignment

Wavelength Consideration: The SD5410-001 specifies 880nm detection. The substitute part OP830SL does not declare a specific wavelength in the provided parameters. Substitution is valid only when the application does not require wavelength-specific performance verification beyond the phototransistor's inherent spectral response characteristics.

Package Compatibility: The SD5410-001 uses TO-46-3 metal can packaging. The OP830SL is available in TO-206AA and TO-18-3 metal can packages. Both are through-hole metal can configurations suitable for equivalent circuit board integration, though physical footprint verification is required during design implementation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: OP830SL

The OP830SL is the designated substitute for the obsolete SD5410-001 based on the following engineering factors:

Regulatory and Compliance Alignment:

• Both components maintain RoHS compliance (SD5410-001: RoHS Compliant; OP830SL: ROHS3 Compliant)
• Both are REACH Unaffected
• Both carry identical MSL ratings (1 - Unlimited)
• Both share the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications

Electrical Parameter Compatibility:

• Collector-emitter breakdown voltage: Both rated at 15V maximum
• Operating temperature range: OP830SL extends to -65°C minimum, exceeding SD5410-001's -55°C specification
• Power dissipation: OP830SL rated at 250mW versus SD5410-001's 150mW, providing additional thermal margin

Product Availability and Support:

• OP830SL is classified as Active product status with 2889 units in stock
• SD5410-001 is obsolete with limited remaining inventory (836 units)
• OP830SL ensures long-term supply chain continuity

Package and Mounting Considerations:

• Both utilize through-hole metal can packaging
• OP830SL available in TO-206AA and TO-18-3 variants versus SD5410-001's TO-46-3
• Physical footprint differences require PCB layout verification during implementation

Dark Current Differential:

• OP830SL dark current maximum: 1µA
• SD5410-001 dark current maximum: 250nA
• Applications with stringent dark current specifications require circuit-level noise analysis

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can OP830SL directly replace SD5410-001 without PCB modifications?

A: Package compatibility requires verification. The SD5410-001 uses TO-46-3 metal can, while OP830SL is supplied in TO-206AA or TO-18-3 metal can packages. Although all are through-hole metal can configurations, physical pin spacing and lead geometry may differ. PCB footprint comparison is mandatory before substitution.

Q2: What is the impact of the higher dark current in OP830SL (1µA vs. 250nA)?

A: The OP830SL exhibits 4 times higher maximum dark current. In low-light detection applications or circuits with high transimpedance gain, this difference may introduce measurable noise floor elevation. Circuit-level signal-to-noise ratio analysis is required for noise-sensitive applications.

Q3: Are there wavelength differences between SD5410-001 and OP830SL?

A: The SD5410-001 specifies 880nm detection wavelength. The OP830SL wavelength specification is not provided in the available parameters. Both are phototransistors with inherent infrared sensitivity. Applications requiring wavelength-specific performance filtering should conduct spectral response verification.

Q4: Why is OP830SL rated for higher power dissipation (250mW vs. 150mW)?

A: The OP830SL's higher power rating (250mW) provides additional thermal design margin compared to SD5410-001 (150mW). This does not indicate different functional capability but rather different thermal packaging or die design. Circuit design should remain within the original SD5410-001 power budget unless thermal analysis justifies increased dissipation.

Q5: Is the extended operating temperature range of OP830SL (-65°C to 125°C) a functional advantage?

A: The OP830SL's lower temperature limit of -65°C exceeds the SD5410-001's -55°C specification. This provides additional margin for applications operating in extreme cold environments. The upper temperature limit (125°C) is identical. Extended temperature range does not affect substitution validity for applications within the original -55°C to 125°C specification.

Q6: What compliance certifications should be verified before substitution?

A: Both components are RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected. OP830SL carries ROHS3 designation, representing current RoHS compliance standards. Both maintain identical MSL ratings (1 - Unlimited), eliminating moisture sensitivity concerns during handling and storage. Verify that procurement and supply chain documentation reflects these compliance statuses.

Q7: Is wavelength specification critical for determining substitution validity?

A: The SD5410-001 specifies 880nm wavelength; OP830SL does not declare wavelength in available parameters. Substitution is valid for applications where phototransistor infrared detection is required without wavelength-specific filtering. Applications requiring precise 880nm spectral response should conduct spectral matching analysis before implementation.
