Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the VLMY233T2V2-GS08 is determined by the following criteria:

Color matching at yellow wavelength range (589-590nm dominant wavelength) Forward voltage compatibility within the 2.0V to 2.15V range Brightness rating of 468mcd or higher at 20mA test current Viewing angle of 120° or greater Surface mount configuration with compatible package footprint Active product status with current manufacturing availability ROHS3 compliance and equivalent regulatory certifications

The QBLP675-Y-2897 meets these substitution criteria with a dominant wavelength of 590nm, forward voltage of 2V, and brightness of 468mcd, while maintaining the same 120° viewing angle and surface mount configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the VLMY233T2V2-GS08 and QBLP675-Y-2897 maintain active production status with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected regulatory standing. The primary selection consideration is brightness requirement: the VLMY233T2V2-GS08 provides 650mcd output, while the QBLP675-Y-2897 delivers 468mcd. Forward voltage differs by 0.15V (2.15V versus 2V), which may require circuit adjustment depending on current-limiting resistor design. Package footprint differences exist between the 2-SMD J-Lead and 2-PLCC configurations, necessitating PCB layout verification. Both components share identical 120° viewing angle and 20mA test current specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can QBLP675-Y-2897 directly replace VLMY233T2V2-GS08 without circuit modification?

A: Direct replacement requires brightness tolerance verification. The QBLP675-Y-2897 produces 468mcd compared to 650mcd for the VLMY233T2V2-GS08. Forward voltage differs by 0.15V, which may necessitate current-limiting resistor adjustment. PCB footprint compatibility must be confirmed due to package style differences (2-SMD J-Lead versus 2-PLCC).

Q: Are the wavelength specifications compatible?

A: Yes. Both components operate in the yellow spectrum with dominant wavelengths of 589nm (VLMY233T2V2-GS08) and 590nm (QBLP675-Y-2897), representing a 1nm difference within acceptable yellow indication tolerances.

Q: What are the package footprint differences?

A: The VLMY233T2V2-GS08 uses a 2-SMD J-Lead package measuring 2.20mm L x 1.40mm W with 1.40mm maximum height. The QBLP675-Y-2897 uses a 2-PLCC package measuring 2.00mm L x 1.40mm W with 1.30mm maximum height. PCB layout and pick-and-place equipment compatibility must be evaluated.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry EAR99 ECCN classification with identical HTSUS codes (8541.41.0000).

Q: What is the viewing angle specification for both parts?

A: Both the VLMY233T2V2-GS08 and QBLP675-Y-2897 maintain a 120° viewing angle, ensuring equivalent light distribution characteristics for indication applications.
