SSL-LX5063GT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SSL-LX5063GT is a green LED indication component manufactured by Lumex Opto/Components Inc., designed for through-hole mounting applications. This T-1 3/4 (5mm) radial LED operates at 2.2V forward voltage with a 100mcd brightness rating and 30° viewing angle. The component is currently in active product status and maintains full ROHS3 compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support design flexibility, inventory management, and long-term supply chain continuity. The substitute components listed maintain compatibility within the T-1 3/4 through-hole LED category while accommodating variations in electrical performance and optical characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSL-LX5063GT is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Lens Size: 5mm, T-1 3/4 (mechanical fit requirement)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (PCB assembly compatibility)
• Package / Case: Radial (lead configuration)
• Color: Green (optical specification)
• Lens Transparency: Clear (optical specification)

Electrical Compatibility Range:

• Voltage - Forward (Vf): 2.1V to 2.2V (acceptable operating range)
• Current - Test: 10mA to 20mA (circuit design dependent)

Optical Performance Variation:

• Millicandela Rating: 10.6mcd to 170mcd (application dependent)
• Viewing Angle: 20° to 40° (design dependent)
• Wavelength - Peak: 562nm to 572nm (green spectrum range)

Regulatory Compliance:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (all substitutes)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited) (all substitutes)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected (all substitutes)

All identified substitute parts meet the primary mechanical and electrical compatibility criteria. Variations in brightness (mcd), viewing angle, and peak wavelength reflect different application requirements within the green LED indication category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Active Product Status):

HLMP-C523-J0002 (Broadcom Limited) and WP7113GT (Kingbright) are recommended as primary substitutes. Both components maintain active product status, full ROHS3 compliance, and operate within the specified electrical parameters. HLMP-C523-J0002 offers higher brightness (170mcd) suitable for applications requiring enhanced visibility. WP7113GT provides comparable brightness (80mcd) with a narrower viewing angle (20°), appropriate for directed indication applications.

Secondary Substitutes (Limited Availability):

HLMP-3568 (Broadcom Limited) operates at reduced test current (10mA) and lower brightness (10.6mcd), suitable for low-power applications. This component maintains active status and full compliance.

Not Recommended for New Designs:

MV5452 (onsemi) carries obsolete product status and should not be selected for new designs. SLR-56MC3F (Rohm Semiconductor) is marked "Not For New Designs" and is unsuitable for ongoing development projects.

Compliance Verification:

All recommended substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance, unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1), and REACH unaffected status, matching the regulatory profile of the SSL-LX5063GT.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HLMP-C523-J0002 be used as a direct replacement for SSL-LX5063GT?

A: HLMP-C523-J0002 is mechanically and electrically compatible. Both components share identical lens size (5mm, T-1 3/4), mounting type (through hole), package configuration (radial), and forward voltage (2.2V at 20mA test current). The primary difference is increased brightness (170mcd versus 100mcd) and slightly reduced viewing angle (25° versus 30°). Compatibility depends on application brightness requirements.

Q: What is the impact of different millicandela ratings on circuit design?

A: Millicandela rating determines LED brightness output. Higher ratings (170mcd for HLMP-C523-J0002) produce brighter indication with identical drive current. Lower ratings (10.6mcd for HLMP-3568) reduce brightness. Circuit design remains unchanged; the difference is purely optical output. Selection depends on visibility requirements in the target application environment.

Q: Are there height differences that affect PCB layout?

A: Yes. SSL-LX5063GT has maximum height of 6.00mm, while substitute parts range from 6.35mm to 8.91mm. HLMP-3568 (6.35mm) is closest to the original. Taller components (HLMP-C523-J0002, MV5452, SLR-56MC3F, WP7113GT at 8.60-8.91mm) may require PCB layout verification to ensure clearance with adjacent components or enclosure constraints.

Q: Why is MV5452 listed if it is obsolete?

A: MV5452 is documented as an existing substitute in the SSL-LX5063GT cross-reference data. However, its obsolete status disqualifies it from new design selection. It is included for reference only in legacy system maintenance or repair scenarios where existing inventory exists.

Q: What is the difference between "Active" and "Not For New Designs" product status?

A: Active status indicates the manufacturer continues production and supports the component for new applications. "Not For New Designs" indicates the manufacturer has discontinued active development but may maintain limited production for existing customers. New designs should prioritize active status components to ensure long-term supply availability and manufacturer support.

Q: Do all substitutes meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: All recommended substitutes (HLMP-3568, HLMP-C523-J0002, SLR-56MC3F, WP7113GT) maintain ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1), matching SSL-LX5063GT regulatory profile. MV5452 regulatory status is not fully specified in available data.

Q: How does viewing angle affect LED selection?

A: Viewing angle determines the cone of light distribution. Narrower angles (20° for WP7113GT) concentrate light in a specific direction, suitable for focused indication. Wider angles (40° for HLMP-3568, SLR-56MC3F) distribute light across a broader area, suitable for omnidirectional visibility. Selection depends on application mounting position and visibility requirements.
