Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SFH 4716S C1006 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Core Compatibility Parameters:

• Wavelength: 860nm (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 3-SMD, No Lead (physical and electrical interface requirement)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (assembly process compatibility)
• Viewing Angle: 150° (optical performance specification)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 125°C (environmental specification)
• Series: OSLON® Black (product family designation)

Performance Parameters (allowable variance):

• Current - DC Forward (If) (Max): Equal or greater than 1A
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Typ): Allowable within circuit design tolerance
• Radiant Intensity (Ie) Min @ If: Equal or greater than 180mW/sr @ 1A

The SFH 4716AS meets all core compatibility parameters and exceeds performance specifications, qualifying as a direct substitute for the obsolete SFH 4716S C1006.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SFH 4716AS is the qualified substitute for the obsolete SFH 4716S C1006 based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Alignment: The SFH 4716AS carries Active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support. The SFH 4716S C1006 is classified as Obsolete, creating supply chain risk and limiting long-term component sourcing.

Compliance and Certifications: The SFH 4716AS is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating of 2 (1 Year) indicates standard handling and storage requirements.

Electrical Performance: The SFH 4716AS exceeds the electrical specifications of the main part across all performance metrics. Maximum forward current increases from 1A to 1.5A, and radiant intensity increases from 180mW/sr to 300mW/sr at 1A. Forward voltage increases from 2.95V to 3.2V, a variance of 0.25V that falls within standard circuit design tolerance for IR emitter applications.

Physical and Optical Compatibility: Both parts share identical package configuration (3-SMD, No Lead), mounting type (Surface Mount), wavelength (860nm), viewing angle (150°), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C). These parameters ensure direct mechanical and optical interchangeability in existing PCB designs.

Packaging Availability: The SFH 4716AS is available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, supporting automated assembly processes. Inventory availability of 1514 pieces ensures supply continuity for production requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SFH 4716AS be used as a direct replacement for the SFH 4716S C1006 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical wavelength (860nm), package configuration (3-SMD, No Lead), mounting type (Surface Mount), viewing angle (150°), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C). The SFH 4716AS exceeds the electrical performance specifications of the main part, making it functionally compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference in forward voltage between these parts?

A: The SFH 4716S C1006 has a typical forward voltage of 2.95V, while the SFH 4716AS has a typical forward voltage of 3.2V. This 0.25V difference is within standard tolerance for IR emitter circuit design and does not prevent substitution in typical applications.

Q: Does the higher radiant intensity of the SFH 4716AS affect compatibility?

A: No. The SFH 4716AS delivers 300mW/sr at 1A compared to 180mW/sr for the main part. Higher radiant intensity represents improved optical performance and does not create compatibility issues. Circuit designs operating the main part at 1A will function with the substitute part at equivalent or reduced current levels.

Q: What is the maximum forward current rating for each part?

A: The SFH 4716S C1006 is rated for 1A maximum forward current. The SFH 4716AS is rated for 1.5A maximum forward current. Designs operating at or below 1A are fully compatible with the substitute part.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The SFH 4716S C1006 packaging specification is not detailed in the provided data. The SFH 4716AS is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, which is standard for automated assembly processes. Both parts use identical 3-SMD, No Lead case configuration.

Q: What is the product status difference, and why does it matter?

A: The SFH 4716S C1006 is classified as Obsolete, indicating end-of-life status and limited future availability. The SFH 4716AS is classified as Active, indicating current production and long-term supply chain support. For new designs or production continuity, the Active status of the substitute part is preferred.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: The SFH 4716AS is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory standards. The compliance status of the SFH 4716S C1006 is not specified in the provided data. The substitute part meets modern environmental and safety requirements.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for the SFH 4716AS?

A: The SFH 4716AS has an MSL rating of 2 (1 Year), indicating standard moisture sensitivity. Components with this rating require standard handling and storage practices with a one-year shelf life under controlled conditions.
