LED Circuit Board Indicator SSA-LXB10IW-GF Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SSA-LXB10IW-GF is a 10-segment LED circuit board indicator manufactured by Lumex Opto/Components Inc. This through-hole mounted component features a red LED bar configuration with diffused white lens, designed for visual indication applications requiring multiple discrete LED elements in a compact form factor. The part is currently in active production status with 952 units in stock. Substitute parts may be required due to supply constraints, lead time considerations, or design flexibility in component sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSA-LXB10IW-GF is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Configuration: Bar - 10 Wide, DIP
• Color: Red (x 10)
• Voltage Rating: 2V
• Current: 30mA
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Lens Type: Diffused, White

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Wavelength - Peak: 635nm ±8nm tolerance (627nm to 643nm range acceptable for red LEDs)
• Millicandela Rating: 8mcd baseline (9mcd acceptable within brightness tolerance)
• Viewing Angle: 160° baseline (variations acceptable if ≥150°)
• Lens Size: 5.00mm x 1.74mm (physical dimensions must accommodate PCB layout)
• Lens Style: Rectangle with Flat Top (form factor critical for mechanical fit)

The DC10EWA from Kingbright meets all mandatory matching parameters and falls within allowable variation ranges for wavelength and brightness specifications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SSA-LXB10IW-GF (Primary Selection)

• Active production status with established supply chain
• ROHS3 and REACH compliant
• MSL 1 rating indicates no moisture sensitivity constraints
• Specified wavelength of 635nm and 8mcd brightness are baseline parameters

DC10EWA (Approved Substitute)

• Active production status with higher inventory availability (3198 units in stock)
• ROHS3 and REACH compliant
• MSL 1 rating matches primary part
• Wavelength of 627nm represents a 1.2% shift within acceptable red LED spectrum tolerance
• Brightness increase to 9mcd (12.5% higher) remains within typical visual indicator performance envelope
• Identical electrical specifications (2V, 30mA) and mounting configuration ensure direct PCB compatibility

Both parts satisfy regulatory compliance requirements and environmental standards. Selection between primary and substitute should be based on availability, lead time, and inventory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DC10EWA be used as a direct replacement for SSA-LXB10IW-GF? A: Yes. Both parts share identical configuration (Bar - 10 Wide, DIP), color (Red x 10), voltage (2V), current (30mA), mounting type (Through Hole), and lens type (Diffused, White). Wavelength and brightness variations fall within acceptable engineering tolerances for LED circuit board indicators.

Q: What is the wavelength difference between these parts? A: SSA-LXB10IW-GF operates at 635nm peak wavelength, while DC10EWA operates at 627nm. This 8nm difference represents a 1.2% variation within the red LED spectrum and produces no perceptible color shift in typical indicator applications.

Q: Will the brightness difference affect circuit operation? A: DC10EWA provides 9mcd compared to SSA-LXB10IW-GF at 8mcd, representing a 12.5% increase. This higher brightness remains within standard visual indicator performance parameters and does not require circuit modification.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility concerns? A: Both parts feature identical through-hole mounting configuration and DIP package style. Lens dimensions and form factors are compatible with standard PCB layouts designed for 10-segment LED bar indicators.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards? A: Yes. Both SSA-LXB10IW-GF and DC10EWA are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity) ratings.

Q: What is the viewing angle specification for DC10EWA? A: The viewing angle for DC10EWA is not specified in available documentation. SSA-LXB10IW-GF specifies 160° viewing angle. For applications requiring confirmed viewing angle specifications, contact the manufacturer directly.
