Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SLA-360MT3F is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Color: Green
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: Radial (T-1 form factor)
• Voltage - Forward (Vf): Nominal range 2.2V to 2.3V
• Current - Test: 20mA
• Millicandela Rating: 100mcd or higher
• Viewing Angle: 30° to 40°
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical criteria, enabling direct functional replacement in through-hole PCB applications. Both substitute parts maintain green LED indication capability with compatible forward voltage characteristics and radial package geometry.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts are classified as active products with current manufacturing support, addressing the obsolescence status of the SLA-360MT3F. All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for new designs and production continuity.

SLI-343M8C3F (Rohm Semiconductor): Offers increased brightness at 150mcd with identical 40° viewing angle and matching 20mA test current. Forward voltage is 0.1V lower at 2.2V. Height specification increases to 5.60mm. Maintains Rohm Semiconductor manufacturing continuity.

SSL-LX3044GC (Lumex Opto/Components Inc.): Provides equivalent 100mcd brightness with reduced viewing angle of 30° and lower forward voltage at 2.2V. Height specification is reduced to 4.60mm, offering compact form factor advantage. Introduces alternative manufacturer sourcing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SLI-343M8C3F replace SLA-360MT3F in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical lens size (T-1), viewing angle (40°), test current (20mA), and radial package geometry. The 0.1V forward voltage difference (2.2V vs 2.3V) is within typical circuit tolerance for indicator applications. The increased brightness (150mcd vs 100mcd) does not create compatibility issues.

Q: What is the primary difference between the two substitute options?

A: SLI-343M8C3F maintains Rohm Semiconductor manufacturing with higher brightness output. SSL-LX3044GC provides a Lumex alternative with reduced viewing angle (30° vs 40°) and more compact height (4.60mm vs 5.25mm). Wavelength specifications differ slightly: SLI-343M8C3F at 572nm dominant versus SSL-LX3044GC at 565nm peak.

Q: Are there height clearance considerations when substituting?

A: Yes. SLI-343M8C3F has maximum height of 5.60mm (0.35mm taller than original). SSL-LX3044GC has maximum height of 4.60mm (0.65mm shorter than original). Verify PCB layout and component clearance requirements before selection.

Q: Do all parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with identical HTSUS code 8541.41.0000. Moisture sensitivity level is 1 (Unlimited) for all parts.

Q: What viewing angle differences should I consider?

A: SLA-360MT3F and SLI-343M8C3F both specify 40° viewing angle. SSL-LX3044GC specifies 30° viewing angle, providing narrower light distribution. Select based on application requirements for indicator visibility across intended viewing positions.
