Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the VLMB1300-GS08 are qualified based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Wavelength specification (dominant 470nm, peak 468nm)
• Forward voltage (3.3V typical)
• Test current (20mA)
• Luminous intensity (104mcd)
• Viewing angle (130°)
• Package type (0603 / 1608 Metric)
• Physical dimensions (1.60mm L x 0.80mm W, 1.00mm max height)
• Lens configuration (Rectangle with Flat Top, 1.10mm x 0.80mm)
• Mounting type (Surface Mount)
• Compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

The VLMB1310-GS08 meets all specified parameters and is classified as a parametric equivalent. Both parts share identical electrical characteristics, optical properties, and mechanical form factors, enabling direct substitution in circuit designs.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the VLMB1300-GS08 and VLMB1310-GS08 are Active status components with identical ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certifications. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and supply chain considerations. The VLMB1310-GS08 currently maintains higher stock levels (17,593 pcs vs. 3,100 pcs), making it the preferred choice for high-volume production requirements. Both parts are suitable for applications requiring blue LED indication in 0603 SMD form factor with 3.3V operation and 104mcd luminous intensity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can VLMB1310-GS08 be used as a direct replacement for VLMB1300-GS08?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical characteristics, optical properties, and mechanical dimensions. No circuit modifications are required for substitution.
