Product details
Overview
TLCR5800 from Vishay Semiconductors is a red ultrabright AlInGaP-on-GaAs LED in a 5 mm untinted non-diffused package, delivering 7500–35,000 mcd luminous intensity at 50 mA, with dominant wavelength 611–622 nm and ±4° viewing angle - deployed in high-visibility automotive CHMSL and traffic signal indicators.
For engineers reviewing the TLCR5800 datasheet, TLCR5800 pinout, TLCR5800 application, or TLCR5800 equivalent, this page delivers verified optical/electrical specs, thermal limits (Tj ≤ 125 °C), ESD rating (2 kV), and real-world use context for lighting design, panel indicator selection, and incandescent replacement validation.
Technical Context
The TLCR5800 uses AlInGaP on GaAs substrate technology to achieve high radiant efficiency and narrow spectral bandwidth (Δλ = 18 nm) in the red spectrum. Its parabolic lens geometry and ±4° half-intensity angle enable precise beam control without external optics.
Thermal performance is defined by RthJA = 300 K/W and Tj max = 125 °C, supporting operation up to 100 °C ambient. Forward voltage ranges from 2.1 V to 2.7 V at 50 mA, with temperature coefficients of −3.5 mV/K for VF and +0.05 nm/K for λd.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity | 7500–35,000 mcd at 50 mA: enables high-contrast visibility at distance without current boosting. |
| Dominant wavelength | 611–622 nm: meets red spectral requirements for traffic signals and automotive stop lights. |
| Viewing angle | ±4° half-intensity: provides tight beam for directional indication and reduced optical crosstalk. |
| Forward voltage | 2.1–2.7 V at 50 mA: compatible with standard 3.3 V/5 V LED driver rails and current-limiting resistors. |
| Junction temperature | Max 125 °C: supports under-hood and outdoor enclosure deployments without derating below 50 mA. |
| ESD withstand | 2 kV per JESD22-A114-B: reduces handling sensitivity during SMT assembly and field service. |
| Ambient range | −40 to +100 °C: validated for exterior vehicle lighting and industrial panel environments. |
Pinout & Package
5 mm radial-leaded package with cathode-indicating flat side and parabolic untinted lens; leads are tin-plated copper alloy, 2.54 mm pitch, 12.7 mm lead length.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (longer lead) | Positive DC input | Connects to current source or series resistor; polarity must be observed to avoid reverse breakdown (VR = 5 V max). |
| Cathode (shorter lead / flat side) | Ground reference | Identified by physical flat on housing; ties to PCB ground plane or driver low-side switch node. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Untinted non-diffused lens | Preserves peak luminance and angular precision-no light-scattering loss for focused signage applications. |
| AlInGaP-on-GaAs technology | Delivers superior radiometric efficiency vs. traditional GaAsP, enabling higher mcd/W at 50 mA drive. |
| Luminous intensity binning | Shipped in single brightness group per bag (e.g., MM = 7500–15,000 mcd), ensuring consistent panel-level brightness matching. |
| High-temperature junction rating | 125 °C Tj allows full 50 mA operation in sealed enclosures up to 100 °C ambient without current derating. |
| Wavelength binning | Red color grouped into three dominant wavelength bins (1–3), enabling chromatic consistency across production batches. |
Applications
| Automotive CHMSL | Traffic Signal Modules |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Central high-mounted stop light on passenger vehicles requiring SAE J1393 compliance and daylight visibility. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete red light source driven by constant-current automotive LED controller. Use Value: ±4° beam and 35,000 mcd output meet photometric intensity thresholds at 100 m without secondary optics. |
Use Scenario: Red segment in pedestrian crossing or vehicular traffic signal heads exposed to direct sunlight and wide temperature swings. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary visible emitter replacing incandescent lamps in modular LED-based signal arrays. Use Value: 611–622 nm dominant wavelength satisfies ITE/IEC chromaticity requirements; 125 °C Tj ensures reliability in unventilated housings. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone indicator lamp directly driven from microcontroller GPIO or discrete transistor switch. Use Value: Untinted lens preserves raw intensity for readability behind tinted overlays; 50 mA rating supports robust overdrive margin for aging compensation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar red LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay TLHR5800 | Same 5 mm package and AlInGaP die, but rated for 30 mA max (vs. 50 mA); lower luminous intensity (4000–20,000 mcd). | Suitable for lower-power indicator roles where thermal headroom is constrained; not recommended for CHMSL or traffic signals requiring >25,000 mcd. | Select TLCR5800 when full 50 mA drive and ≥35,000 mcd peak output are required; TLHR5800 fits space-constrained or low-heat designs. |
| ROHM SSL-LX5093SRD | 5 mm red LED with ±5° viewing angle, 10,000–40,000 mcd at 20 mA, VF = 2.0–2.4 V; no specified 125 °C Tj rating. | Optimized for 20 mA operation; lacks documented high-temp junction rating and ESD certification to JESD22-A114-B. | Choose TLCR5800 for automotive-grade thermal resilience and standardized ESD robustness; SSL-LX5093SRD suits cost-sensitive consumer panels. |
Compared with TLHR5800 and SSL-LX5093SRD, the TLCR5800 uniquely combines 50 mA continuous drive capability, 125 °C junction rating, and JESD22-A114-B–certified 2 kV ESD tolerance - making it the only option qualified for high-reliability, high-intensity outdoor and automotive signaling where thermal and electrostatic stress are design-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum forward current rating for the TLCR5800?
The TLCR5800 has a DC forward current rating of 50 mA at ambient temperatures ≤ 85 °C. At higher ambient temperatures, current must be derated per the IF vs. Tamb curve in Figure 1 of the datasheet. The surge forward current is rated at 1 A for pulses ≤ 10 μs. Exceeding 50 mA continuous risks accelerated lumen depreciation and thermal runaway.
Does the TLCR5800 have a built-in current-limiting resistor?
No, the TLCR5800 is a bare LED die in a 5 mm package with no integrated current-limiting resistor. It requires an external series resistor or constant-current driver to regulate forward current at 50 mA. The forward voltage range of 2.1–2.7 V at 50 mA determines the required resistor value for a given supply rail.
Is the TLCR5800 RoHS and REACH compliant?
Yes, the TLCR5800 complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006. Material categorization and compliance documentation are available at www.vishay.com/doc?99912, and the device carries Vishay's standard green marking for lead-free termination.
Can the TLCR5800 be used in reverse-biased mode?
The TLCR5800 is rated for reverse voltage up to 5 V per the absolute maximum ratings table. Reverse conduction is permissible only for short-term applications - such as transient protection or bidirectional signaling - and must remain within that 5 V limit to avoid irreversible damage to the AlInGaP junction.
How is luminous intensity binned for the TLCR5800?
The TLCR5800 is shipped in single luminous intensity groups per packing unit (e.g., MM = 7500–15,000 mcd), with IVmin/IVmax ≤ 0.5 within each bag. Brightness groups (FF through UU) and wavelength bins (1–3 for red) are segregated - no mixing occurs, ensuring consistent optical performance across assembled units.
