Product details
Overview
TLHE5800 from Vishay Semiconductors is a high-intensity yellow AlInGaP LED in a 5 mm untinted non-diffused T-1¾ package, delivering 1000–3500 mcd luminous intensity at 20 mA, with dominant wavelength 581–594 nm and ±4° viewing angle-designed for status indication and lightpipe applications requiring focused, high-brightness output.
For engineers reviewing the TLHE5800 datasheet, TLHE5800 pinout, TLHE5800 application, or TLHE5800 equivalent, key selection criteria include luminous intensity binning, narrow viewing angle for directional coupling, forward voltage tolerance at 20 mA, thermal resistance (350 K/W), and compatibility with DC or pulsed drive up to 100 °C ambient.
Technical Context
The TLHE5800 uses AlInGaP-on-GaAs heterostructure technology to achieve high radiant efficiency in the yellow spectrum (581–594 nm dominant wavelength). Its parabolic lens and untinted epoxy produce a ±4° half-intensity angle, enabling precise optical targeting without secondary optics.
Rated for 30 mA DC forward current and 100 °C junction temperature, the device features 350 K/W thermal resistance and supports surge currents up to 100 mA (10 μs pulse), making it suitable for both continuous indicator use and short-pulse signaling in industrial and medical environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity | 1000–3500 mcd at 20 mA - enables high-visibility status indication at low drive current |
| Dominant wavelength | 581–594 nm - precise yellow emission compliant with color-critical legend and medical indicator standards |
| Viewing angle | ±4° half-intensity - supports tight optical coupling into lightpipes or small apertures |
| Forward voltage | 2.0–2.6 V at 20 mA - compatible with standard 3.3 V or 5 V logic-level current-limiting drive |
| Junction-to-ambient Rth | 350 K/W - requires minimal heatsinking for operation up to 65 °C ambient at full rated current |
| Reverse voltage | 5 V - sufficient margin for transient suppression in low-voltage indicator circuits |
| Junction capacitance | 15 pF at 0 V, 1 MHz - negligible impact on switching speed in DC or low-frequency PWM applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5 mm T-1¾ (Ø 5.0 ± 0.15 mm body, 8.7 ± 0.3 mm height, 2.54 mm lead spacing), untinted non-diffused epoxy with parabolic lens. Cathode indicated by flat side and shorter lead.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (longer lead) | Positive terminal | Connected to current source; polarity-sensitive-reverse bias limited to 5 V |
| Cathode (shorter lead, flat side) | Negative terminal | Common return path; must be held at lower potential than anode during conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AlInGaP-on-GaAs die technology | Enables stable yellow emission with high quantum efficiency and low thermal droop up to 100 °C |
| ±4° viewing angle | Minimizes light spill and maximizes intensity per unit area-ideal for front-panel legend illumination |
| Luminous intensity binning | Guaranteed 1000–3500 mcd range at 20 mA supports consistent brightness matching across production batches |
| DC and pulsed-current rated | Validated for 30 mA continuous and 100 mA/10 μs surge-supports both steady-state and strobed signaling |
Applications
| Status Lights | Off/On Indicator |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Front-panel power and fault status indication on industrial control panels and test equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Light-emitting diode providing human-readable operational state feedback. Use Value: High 3500 mcd intensity ensures visibility under bright ambient lighting; ±4° beam confines light to designated lens aperture. |
Use Scenario: Binary system readiness signal on medical diagnostic devices and laboratory instruments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Visual binary indicator driven directly from microcontroller GPIO or logic buffer. Use Value: Tight 581–594 nm yellow wavelength meets IEC 62366 usability requirements for color-coded status; low 2.6 V max VF simplifies current-limiting resistor design. |
| Lightpipe Integration | Outdoor Display |
Use Scenario: Coupling into molded acrylic lightpipes for remote panel illumination in automotive dashboards and avionics. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Directional light source aligned to lightpipe input facet. Use Value: ±4° viewing angle matches typical lightpipe NA acceptance, minimizing coupling loss; untinted package preserves spectral purity. |
Use Scenario: Sunlight-readable segment elements in outdoor kiosks and traffic signage where yellow conveys caution or priority. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-brightness discrete emitter in matrix or bar-graph configurations. Use Value: 1000 mcd minimum intensity maintains legibility at >2 m distance under direct sunlight; 100 °C operating range supports uncooled outdoor enclosures. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar yellow LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay TLHY5800 | Same package and AlInGaP technology; luminous intensity 1200–4000 mcd at 20 mA - higher typical output but wider bin spread | Slightly broader viewing angle (±5°) reduces directionality for lightpipe use | Select when higher average intensity justifies less precise beam control |
| Kingbright APT1608SYCK | 0603 SMD package, 570–590 nm dominant wavelength, 180–420 mcd at 20 mA - lower intensity, surface-mount only | Requires PCB rework for through-hole replacement; unsuitable for legacy T-1¾ sockets or lightpipe alignment | Choose only for space-constrained new designs where SMT assembly is mandatory |
Compared with TLHY5800 and APT1608SYCK, the TLHE5800 offers the narrowest viewing angle (±4°) and highest minimum intensity (1000 mcd), making it optimal for applications demanding directional brightness and legacy through-hole compatibility-neither alternative matches its combination of beam precision and through-hole mechanical fit.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current rating for the TLHE5800?
The TLHE5800 is rated for 30 mA DC forward current at ambient temperatures ≤65 °C. Exceeding this current without thermal derating risks accelerated lumen depreciation and junction temperature exceedance beyond the 100 °C limit. Always verify PCB copper area and airflow when operating near this rating. The TLHE5800 datasheet specifies 30 mA as the absolute maximum for continuous operation.
Does the TLHE5800 have a diffused or clear lens?
The TLHE5800 features an untinted non-diffused plastic package with a parabolic lens geometry-not a milky or frosted dome. This design preserves spectral purity and delivers the ±4° narrow viewing angle critical for lightpipe coupling and focused indicator use. The TLHE5800 lens is optically clear, not diffused.
What is the dominant wavelength range specified for the TLHE5800?
The TLHE5800 has a dominant wavelength range of 581 nm (minimum) to 594 nm (maximum) at 10 mA forward current, placing it firmly in the yellow portion of the visible spectrum. This range is verified per the Vishay datasheet Document Number 83024 Rev. 1.7 and ensures consistent color rendering for status and legend applications. The TLHE5800's λd is tightly controlled for visual uniformity.
Can the TLHE5800 be used in outdoor applications exposed to high ambient temperatures?
Yes-the TLHE5800 is rated for operation from –40 °C to +100 °C ambient temperature and has a maximum junction temperature of 100 °C. Its 350 K/W thermal resistance allows reliable use in sealed outdoor enclosures without active cooling, provided drive current is thermally derated above 65 °C ambient. The TLHE5800 is explicitly qualified for such conditions.
Is the TLHE5800 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes-the TLHE5800 complies with Vishay's material categorization per document 99912 and meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements. It is also halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. Compliance documentation is available via Vishay's website using Document Number 83024. The TLHE5800 carries no restricted substances above threshold limits.
