Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SD5410-002 is determined by alignment across the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Optical sensor category classification
• Infrared wavelength range compatibility (880nm nominal)
• Top-view orientation requirement
• Through-hole or surface-mount mounting compatibility
• Voltage and power rating sufficiency
• Operating temperature range coverage
• RoHS and environmental compliance status

Substitute Parts Identified:

OP830SL (TT Electronics/Optek Technology): Active product with through-hole TO-206AA/TO-18-3 metal can package. Matches top-view orientation and through-hole mounting. Provides 15V collector-emitter breakdown voltage and extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 125°C). Wavelength specification not provided in available data. RoHS3 compliant.

VEMT2020X01 (Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division): Active product with surface-mount 2-SMD gull-wing package. Operates at 860nm wavelength within the infrared spectrum near the 880nm specification. Provides 20V collector-emitter breakdown voltage. Operating temperature range -40°C to 100°C. AEC-Q101 automotive qualified. RoHS3 compliant. Mounting type differs from original through-hole configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

OP830SL Selection Criteria:

The OP830SL represents the closest functional equivalent for through-hole PCB assembly applications. This part maintains identical collector-emitter breakdown voltage (15V) and extends the minimum operating temperature to -65°C, providing superior low-temperature performance. The through-hole TO-206AA/TO-18-3 metal can package preserves mechanical compatibility with existing board layouts designed for the SD5410-002. Active product status ensures long-term availability and supply chain stability. ROHS3 compliance aligns with current environmental regulations. The higher maximum power rating (250mW versus 150mW) provides additional thermal margin. Wavelength specification absence requires verification against application requirements if precise 880nm response is critical.

VEMT2020X01 Selection Criteria:

The VEMT2020X01 is suitable for applications permitting surface-mount technology transition. This part operates at 860nm, within the near-infrared spectrum adjacent to the 880nm specification, and provides superior voltage rating (20V). AEC-Q101 automotive qualification certifies reliability for demanding environments. Active product status and ROHS3 compliance ensure regulatory alignment. The surface-mount package requires PCB redesign and assembly process modification. Operating temperature maximum of 100°C is lower than the original specification; applications requiring -55°C minimum temperature operation cannot use this substitute. Dark current specification (100nA) is superior to the main part (250nA).

Selection Decision Matrix:

For through-hole assembly requirements with extended temperature range (-55°C operation): OP830SL

For surface-mount assembly with automotive qualification requirements: VEMT2020X01

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can OP830SL directly replace SD5410-002 in existing PCB designs?

A: OP830SL maintains through-hole mounting and top-view orientation, compatible with SD5410-002 board layouts. Package dimensions differ between TO-46-3 and TO-206AA/TO-18-3 metal cans; physical fit verification is required. Electrical parameters (15V breakdown voltage, top-view orientation) align with the original specification.

Q: What is the wavelength compatibility between SD5410-002 (880nm) and VEMT2020X01 (860nm)?

A: VEMT2020X01 operates at 860nm, a 20nm difference from the 880nm specification. Both wavelengths fall within the near-infrared spectrum. Application-specific spectral response requirements determine acceptability. OP830SL wavelength is not specified in available documentation.

Q: Why does VEMT2020X01 have a lower maximum operating temperature (100°C) than SD5410-002 (125°C)?

A: VEMT2020X01 is specified with a -40°C to 100°C operating range, limiting maximum temperature to 100°C. Applications requiring operation at 125°C cannot use this substitute. OP830SL maintains the 125°C maximum temperature specification.

Q: Is VEMT2020X01 suitable for applications requiring -55°C minimum temperature operation?

A: No. VEMT2020X01 minimum operating temperature is -40°C. Applications requiring -55°C operation must use OP830SL or equivalent parts with extended low-temperature ratings.

Q: What is the impact of different dark current specifications across these parts?

A: SD5410-002 specifies 250nA maximum dark current. OP830SL specifies 1µA (higher), while VEMT2020X01 specifies 100nA (lower). Dark current affects signal-to-noise ratio in low-light applications. VEMT2020X01 provides superior dark current performance; OP830SL exhibits higher dark current leakage.

Q: Does OP830SL require PCB layout modifications for substitution?

A: OP830SL uses TO-206AA/TO-18-3 metal can package versus SD5410-002 TO-46-3 package. Physical dimensions differ; pin spacing and lead configuration require verification against existing footprints. Through-hole mounting type remains compatible.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to each substitute part?

A: OP830SL: ROHS3 compliant. VEMT2020X01: ROHS3 compliant, AEC-Q101 automotive qualified. Both parts meet current environmental and regulatory standards. SD5410-002 is RoHS compliant (original standard).

Q: Can VEMT2020X01 be used in automotive applications?

A: Yes. VEMT2020X01 carries AEC-Q101 automotive qualification, certifying reliability for automotive-grade applications. OP830SL does not specify automotive qualification.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity difference between these parts?

A: SD5410-002 and OP830SL: MSL 1 (Unlimited). VEMT2020X01: MSL 2A (4 Weeks). Lower MSL ratings require shorter shelf life management and controlled storage conditions. MSL 1 parts have no moisture sensitivity restrictions.
