HLMP-EG12-VY000

Overview

The HLMP-EG12-VY000 is a single-color red LED from the HLMP-EG series, manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It features a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) through-hole package with a water-clear domed lens. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 626 nm, providing high visibility. Key electrical parameters include a forward current of 20 mA and a typical forward voltage of 2.1 V. The luminous intensity is rated at 8100 mcd, with a power rating of 120 mW. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides accurate color representation and high-visibility output for precise status indication.
• Features a water-clear domed lens designed to enhance light transmission and viewing angles.

Applications

• Status indicators in electronic equipment
• Panel indicator lights
• Control panel signaling

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the HLMP-EG12-VY000 to confirm exact luminous intensity tolerances and binning codes, as values may vary between production batches. Ensure that the procurement documentation explicitly lists RoHS compliance status, as this is a critical requirement for modern electronic assemblies. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with official Broadcom catalogs to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select the HLMP-EG12-VY000 when a standard 5mm through-hole red LED is required for general-purpose indication. Its 626 nm wavelength offers a distinct red hue suitable for visual alerts. Consider the 20 mA forward current requirement for driver circuit design. This component is appropriate for applications where standard visibility is sufficient and cost-effective through-hole mounting is preferred over surface-mount alternatives.

Part Context

This component belongs to the HLMP-EG series of single-color LEDs from Broadcom Limited. The series is characterized by its reliability and consistent optical performance across various industrial and consumer applications. The HLMP-EG12-VY000 specifically utilizes a red emitting die encapsulated in a clear epoxy lens, ensuring durability and long operational life under standard operating conditions.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include HLMP-EG08-YZ000 (Red, 626nm, 9300mcd) and HLMP-EG3G-VX000 (Red, 626nm, 4200mcd). These parts share identical mechanical dimensions and electrical characteristics but differ in luminous intensity ratings. Verify that the alternative part's intensity meets the visibility requirements of the specific application before substitution.
