Product details
Overview
TLHF5800 from Vishay Semiconductors is a high-intensity soft orange LED in a standard 5 mm untinted non-diffused T-1¾ package, featuring AlInGaP-on-GaAs technology, ±4° viewing angle, and luminous intensity >1000 mcd at 20 mA - deployed in status indicators and outdoor displays requiring directional brightness.
For engineers reviewing the TLHF5800 datasheet, TLHF5800 pinout, TLHF5800 application, or TLHF5800 equivalent, this page delivers verified optical parameters, thermal limits, forward voltage behavior, and real-world use context for industrial indicator and legend-light design.
Technical Context
This device uses AlInGaP-on-GaAs heterostructure technology to achieve high radiant efficiency in the soft orange spectrum (598–611 nm dominant wavelength), with tight mechanical tolerances enabling precise light collimation. Its ±4° half-intensity angle and non-diffused lens produce narrow-beam output ideal for lightpipe coupling and long-distance visibility.
The TLHF5800 operates up to 100 °C junction temperature with 350 K/W thermal resistance, supports DC and pulsed drive (IFSM = 0.1 A, tp ≤ 10 μs), and maintains stable luminous output across ambient temperatures from –40 °C to +100 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity | ≥1000 mcd at 20 mA - enables high-visibility status indication without auxiliary optics |
| Dominant wavelength | 598–611 nm - soft orange spectral output compliant with human-perceptible indicator standards |
| Viewing angle | ±4° half-intensity - provides tightly focused beam for lightpipe integration and reduced ambient washout |
| Forward voltage | 2.0–2.6 V at 20 mA - compatible with standard 3.3 V/5 V logic-level current-limiting drive circuits |
| Max DC forward current | 30 mA at Tamb ≤ 65 °C - defines continuous drive limit for thermal reliability in sealed enclosures |
| Junction-to-ambient Rth | 350 K/W - determines required heatsinking or derating for operation above 25 °C ambient |
| Reverse voltage rating | 5 V - sets maximum allowable reverse bias during multiplexed or AC-coupled driving |
Pinout & Package
Standard 5 mm T-1¾ through-hole package with cathode (shorter lead) and anode (longer lead) terminals; no polarity marking on body - orientation confirmed by lead length differential per JEDEC TO-18 variant conventions.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (longer lead) | Positive terminal | Connects to current source or series resistor; requires forward bias ≥2.0 V for conduction |
| Cathode (shorter lead) | Negative terminal | Connects to ground or sink driver; reverse voltage must not exceed 5 V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AlInGaP-on-GaAs die technology | Delivers high external quantum efficiency in orange band without phosphor conversion or spectral shift over life |
| Untinted non-diffused lens | Preserves native angular emission profile - essential for optical path control in lightpipe and collimator designs |
| Luminous intensity categorization | Enables bin-matching for consistent brightness across multi-LED panels and status arrays |
| Pb-free construction | Meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU Annex II without exemption - suitable for consumer and industrial end-equipment |
Applications
| Status Indicators | Lightpipe Integration |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Panel-mounted power-on/off or fault-status indication in industrial HMIs and medical equipment housings. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete visual feedback element driven directly from microcontroller GPIO or discrete transistor switch. Use Value: ±4° beam confines light to designated aperture, eliminating need for secondary baffles or masks in front-panel design. | Use Scenario: Coupling into molded acrylic or polycarbonate lightpipes for remote illumination of control legends. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary light source positioned at lightpipe input face with mechanical alignment critical to coupling efficiency. Use Value: Untinted non-diffused lens and narrow viewing angle maximize coupling efficiency into small-diameter lightpipes (≤3 mm). |
| Outdoor Displays | Medical Instrument Indicators |
Use Scenario: High-brightness segment in outdoor signage or traffic signal elements exposed to direct sunlight. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone emitter operating at 20 mA DC or pulsed duty cycle to sustain visibility under >10,000 lux ambient. Use Value: >1000 mcd output and spectral peak at 610 nm provide optimal photopic contrast against daylight background. | Use Scenario: Critical status lighting in diagnostic imaging consoles and infusion pump interfaces requiring regulatory-compliant color fidelity. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Visually distinct soft orange indicator confirming system readiness or alarm state per IEC 62366 usability guidelines. Use Value: Dominant wavelength 598–611 nm meets CIE 1931 chromaticity requirements for "orange" in Class II medical devices. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay TLHF5801 | Same package and technology; luminous intensity binned ≥1500 mcd (vs. ≥1000 mcd for TLHF5800) | Higher brightness tier - used where increased visibility margin is required without changing drive circuitry | Select TLHF5801 when luminance headroom is needed for aging compensation or extended viewing distance |
| Kingbright APL-5012SURK | 5 mm T-1¾ package, soft orange, ±5° viewing angle, IV ≥ 800 mcd at 20 mA, VF 2.0–2.4 V | Slightly wider beam and lower min intensity - better for diffuse panel lighting, less optimal for lightpipe coupling | Choose APL-5012SURK when broader angular coverage is acceptable and cost sensitivity outweighs intensity precision |
Compared with TLHF5800, TLHF5801 offers higher guaranteed intensity within identical form factor and drive conditions, while APL-5012SURK trades intensity and beam narrowness for broader availability and lower unit cost in non-critical indicator roles.

FAQ
What is the minimum forward current required to visibly illuminate the TLHF5800?
The TLHF5800 produces measurable luminous output down to ~2 mA, but reliable visual indication under typical indoor ambient conditions begins at 5–10 mA. At 10 mA, relative intensity is ~50 % of rated 20 mA output, and forward voltage drops to ~2.3 V - sufficient for low-power microcontroller GPIO drive with appropriate current limiting.
Can the TLHF5800 be driven with PWM without affecting its lifetime?
Yes - the TLHF5800 supports pulsed operation with peak forward current up to 0.1 A for pulse widths ≤10 μs. For standard PWM dimming (e.g., 100–1000 Hz), keep average current ≤30 mA and ensure duty cycle × peak current stays within absolute max ratings. Thermal cycling impact is negligible below 100 °C junction temperature.
Is the TLHF5800 compatible with infrared reflow soldering processes?
Yes - the TLHF5800 is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020, with peak temperature tolerance of 260 °C for ≤5 s at 2 mm from package body. Preheat and soak profiles must avoid exceeding 150 °C for >120 s to prevent internal delamination or lens yellowing.
Does the TLHF5800 require current regulation or can it be driven directly from a voltage source?
The TLHF5800 must be current-limited - direct connection to a voltage source risks thermal runaway due to negative temperature coefficient of forward voltage. A series resistor (e.g., 150 Ω for 5 V supply) or constant-current driver is mandatory. At 20 mA, VF is 2.0–2.6 V; variation exceeds ±0.3 V across production lots.
What does "luminous intensity categorized" mean for the TLHF5800?
"Luminous intensity categorized" means Vishay bins TLHF5800 units by measured IV at 20 mA into discrete intensity ranges (e.g., 1000–1500 mcd, 1500–2500 mcd). This enables consistent brightness matching across multi-LED assemblies and eliminates visible intensity gradients in status arrays - critical for medical and industrial HMI compliance.
