Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are classified based on the following criteria derived from the SML-010VTT87 specifications:

Direct Manufacturer Equivalent (S7L-010VTT87J): Maintains identical functional classification as red LED indication component from the same manufacturer with matching RoHS3 and REACH compliance status.

Parametric Equivalent (SML-010VTT86): Shares identical electrical parameters (2V forward voltage, 20mA test current, 650nm peak wavelength, 6.3mcd rating) and mechanical specifications (1208 package, 3.00mm x 2.00mm x 1.50mm dimensions). Differs only in packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape) and product status (Active vs. Not For New Designs).

Similar Substitute (SML-012V8TT86): Maintains compatible package geometry (1208 / 3020 Metric), surface mount configuration, and form factor (3.00mm x 2.00mm x 1.50mm). Electrical parameters vary: 2.2V forward voltage, 630nm dominant wavelength, and 63mcd luminous intensity. Offers higher brightness and improved MSL rating (2 vs. 3).

Similar Substitute (XZMDK56W): Alternative from SunLED with compatible red wavelength range (630nm dominant, 645nm peak). Differs in package type (2-SMD, No Lead vs. 1208), mounting configuration (Right Angle vs. standard), lens style (Domed Top vs. Flat Top), and form factor (3.00mm x 2.00mm x 1.00mm height). Provides higher luminous intensity (79mcd) and wider viewing angle (120°).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Identical Specifications): SML-010VTT86 provides the closest match with identical electrical and mechanical parameters. This part maintains Active product status and is available in higher volume (5946 pcs), differing only in packaging format (Tape & Reel). Selection of this part eliminates obsolescence risk while preserving circuit performance.

For Active Product Line Continuation: S7L-010VTT87J offers direct manufacturer equivalence from Rohm Semiconductor with Active status. Incomplete parameter documentation requires verification of electrical compatibility before implementation.

For Enhanced Brightness Applications: SML-012V8TT86 provides 10x higher luminous intensity (63mcd vs. 6.3mcd) within the same package footprint. The 2.2V forward voltage and improved MSL rating (2 vs. 3) support higher reliability requirements. This selection is appropriate when increased visibility is required without PCB redesign.

For Compact Height-Constrained Designs: XZMDK56W reduces maximum height to 1.00mm while maintaining compatible base dimensions. The right-angle mounting configuration and domed lens provide alternative optical characteristics. This selection requires PCB layout modification due to different package type and mounting orientation.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting regulatory requirements equivalent to the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SML-010VTT86 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for SML-010VTT87?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical parameters (2V forward voltage, 20mA test current, 6.3mcd luminous intensity, 650nm peak wavelength) and mechanical specifications (1208 package, 3.00mm x 2.00mm x 1.50mm). The only difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape). SML-010VTT86 is Active status, eliminating obsolescence concerns.

Q: What is the key difference between SML-012V8TT86 and the original SML-010VTT87?

A: SML-012V8TT86 operates at 2.2V forward voltage (vs. 2V) and provides 63mcd luminous intensity (vs. 6.3mcd). The package footprint remains identical (1208 / 3020 Metric, 3.00mm x 2.00mm x 1.50mm). Selection of this part requires circuit verification to confirm the higher forward voltage and brightness are compatible with the application.

Q: Is XZMDK56W compatible with existing PCB layouts designed for SML-010VTT87?

A: No. XZMDK56W uses a different package type (2-SMD, No Lead vs. 1208), right-angle mounting configuration, and reduced height (1.00mm vs. 1.50mm). PCB redesign is required for this substitution. The domed lens also provides different optical characteristics compared to the flat-top lens of the original part.

Q: What are the compliance differences between substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts (S7L-010VTT87J, SML-010VTT86, SML-012V8TT86, XZMDK56W) maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status identical to SML-010VTT87. No compliance trade-offs exist among these options.

Q: Which substitute part has the best availability?

A: SML-012V8TT86 has the highest inventory (19515 pcs), followed by SML-010VTT86 (5946 pcs), XZMDK56W (5702 pcs), and S7L-010VTT87J (962 pcs). Availability should be confirmed with your supplier for current stock levels.

Q: Can I use XZMDK56W in applications requiring the exact same lens characteristics?

A: No. XZMDK56W features a domed top lens with 120° viewing angle, while SML-010VTT87 has a flat-top lens. The optical performance differs significantly. Selection of XZMDK56W is appropriate only when the wider viewing angle and domed lens characteristics are compatible with the application requirements.
