Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TLCR5100 are grouped based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

Color: Red
Lens Transparency: Clear
Mounting Type: Through Hole
Package / Case: Radial
RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
Product Status: Active

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

Voltage - Forward (Vf): 1.9V to 2.1V range
Wavelength - Dominant: 616nm to 626nm range
Lens Style: Round with Domed Top
Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Substitute parts are divided into two groups:

Group 1 - T-1 3/4 Package Substitutes (Broadcom Limited HLMP-EG series): These parts maintain the exact T-1 3/4 supplier device package specification, identical mounting footprint, and compatible electrical characteristics. Forward voltage is 1.9V (lower than TLCR5100's 2.1V), and test current is 20mA (lower than TLCR5100's 50mA). Millicandela ratings vary from 1690mcd to 18150mcd depending on specific part number, with viewing angles of 8° or 15°.

Group 2 - Alternative Package Substitutes: The Würth Elektronik 151053RS03000 provides a 5mm round package alternative with different dimensional characteristics (5.00mm lens size, 8.85mm height) and lower millicandela rating (5000mcd), suitable for applications where package footprint flexibility exists.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring regulatory alignment with the TLCR5100. The Broadcom Limited HLMP-EG series parts (HLMP-EG08-WZ000, HLMP-EG08-X1000, HLMP-EG08-Y2000, HLMP-EG08-YZ000, HLMP-EG10-WZ000, HLMP-EG15-PS000, HLMP-EG15-RU000, HLMP-EG15-UX000, and HLMP-EG1G-Y10DD) provide direct T-1 3/4 package compatibility with identical mounting footprints and mechanical dimensions within acceptable tolerance ranges. These parts are suitable for direct board-level substitution where the application can accommodate the lower test current specification (20mA versus 50mA) and forward voltage variation (1.9V versus 2.1V for most HLMP-EG variants, with HLMP-EG1G-Y10DD matching 2.1V).

The Würth Elektronik 151053RS03000 offers an alternative for applications where package footprint flexibility is available, providing a 5mm round package option with different dimensional characteristics. This part is suitable only when mechanical constraints permit deviation from the T-1 3/4 standard.

Selection between HLMP-EG variants depends on millicandela requirements and viewing angle specifications. HLMP-EG08 series provides 8° viewing angle with millicandela ratings from 10750mcd to 18150mcd. HLMP-EG10-WZ000 offers 12.62mm height with 10750mcd at 8° viewing angle. HLMP-EG15 series provides 15° viewing angle with millicandela ratings from 1690mcd to 6250mcd. HLMP-EG1G-Y10DD matches the original 2.1V forward voltage specification with 15150mcd at 15° viewing angle.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HLMP-EG series parts directly replace TLCR5100 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes, all Broadcom Limited HLMP-EG series parts maintain T-1 3/4 package compatibility and identical through-hole mounting footprints. No PCB modifications are required. However, circuit design must accommodate the lower test current specification (20mA versus 50mA) and forward voltage variation (1.9V for most HLMP-EG variants versus 2.1V for TLCR5100).

Q: What is the difference between HLMP-EG08, HLMP-EG10, and HLMP-EG15 series?

A: These series differ in viewing angle and millicandela rating. HLMP-EG08 provides 8° viewing angle with higher millicandela ratings (10750mcd to 18150mcd). HLMP-EG10 provides 8° viewing angle with 10750mcd and increased height (12.62mm). HLMP-EG15 provides 15° viewing angle with lower millicandela ratings (1690mcd to 6250mcd). Selection depends on application requirements for light distribution and intensity.

Q: Is the Würth Elektronik 151053RS03000 mechanically compatible with TLCR5100?

A: The Würth Elektronik 151053RS03000 uses a 5mm round package instead of T-1 3/4, with different lens size (5.00mm versus 5.80mm) and height (8.85mm versus 9.00mm). This part is suitable only for applications where package footprint flexibility exists and PCB modifications are acceptable.

Q: What are the compliance differences between substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts listed maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), matching the TLCR5100 regulatory profile. No compliance trade-offs exist between the original part and substitutes.

Q: How do wavelength specifications differ between TLCR5100 and substitutes?

A: TLCR5100 has dominant wavelength of 616nm (peak 622nm). Most Broadcom HLMP-EG substitutes have dominant wavelength of 626nm (peak 635nm). Würth Elektronik 151053RS03000 has dominant wavelength of 623nm (peak 631nm). These wavelength variations remain within the red LED spectrum and are suitable for general indication applications where precise wavelength matching is not critical.

Q: Which substitute part most closely matches TLCR5100 electrical specifications?

A: HLMP-EG1G-Y10DD most closely matches the original part, providing identical 2.1V forward voltage specification. However, it operates at 20mA test current (versus 50mA) and provides 15150mcd at 15° viewing angle. For applications requiring the exact 50mA test current specification, no direct electrical match exists among the listed substitutes.
