Product details
Overview
TLHR5200 from Vishay Semiconductors is a high-efficiency red LED in a 5 mm tinted non-diffused T-1¾ package, delivering 10–50 mcd luminous intensity at 10 mA, with dominant wavelength 612–630 nm, ±14° viewing angle, and forward voltage 2–3 V at 20 mA. It serves as a status or indicator light in industrial control panels requiring high-brightness, narrow-beam visual signaling.
For engineers reviewing the TLHR5200 datasheet, TLHR5200 pinout, TLHR5200 application, or TLHR5200 equivalent, this page provides verified optical, electrical, and thermal specifications, mechanical package data, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts for indicator lighting design and BOM optimization.
Technical Context
The TLHR5200 uses GaAsP-on-GaP epitaxial technology to achieve red emission with tight wavelength grouping (612–630 nm) and high luminous intensity uniformity within packing units (IVmin/IVmax ≤ 0.5). Its ±14° half-intensity angle enables focused beam output ideal for discrete status indication without optical diffusers.
Rated for DC and pulsed operation up to 1 A surge current (10 μs), it supports reliable on/off signaling across -40 °C to +100 °C ambient range, with 350 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance and 100 mW power dissipation limit at ≤65 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity | 10–50 mcd at 10 mA - defines visible brightness level for human-readable status indication at standard drive current |
| Dominant wavelength | 612–630 nm - ensures consistent red color perception across production lots for uniform panel appearance |
| Viewing angle | ±14° half-intensity - delivers narrow, directional beam for high-contrast local indication without crosstalk |
| Forward voltage | 2–3 V at 20 mA - determines series resistor value and power loss in simple DC bias circuits |
| Max DC forward current | 30 mA at ≤65 °C - sets continuous drive capability for long-life operation in sealed enclosures |
| Junction temperature | 100 °C - defines absolute thermal limit for reliability under sustained load and ambient stress |
| Reverse voltage | 6 V - specifies maximum allowable reverse bias before leakage or breakdown in AC-coupled or multiplexed designs |
Pinout & Package
TLHR5200 is housed in a standard 5 mm (T-1¾) radial-leaded plastic package with cathode-indicating flat side and stand-offs. Leads are tin-plated copper, compatible with wave and reflow soldering (260 °C, 5 s).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (longer lead) | Positive terminal | Connects to current-limiting resistor and supply rail; polarity must be observed to avoid damage |
| Cathode (shorter lead / flat side) | Negative terminal | Common return path; flat edge on package body identifies cathode for manual assembly verification |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity categorization | Guarantees IVmin/IVmax ≤ 0.5 within one packing unit - enables consistent brightness matching in multi-LED panels |
| Wavelength grouping (red) | 612–630 nm dominant wavelength range - ensures color uniformity across batches for brand-aligned visual systems |
| Small mechanical tolerances | ±0.15 mm diameter and ±0.15 mm lens radius tolerance - supports automated insertion and optical alignment in high-volume assembly |
| High peak current capability | 1 A surge rating (10 μs) - allows multiplexed or PWM-driven operation without derating for short-duration pulses |
| Tinted non-diffused lens | Clear red tint with no internal diffuser - preserves luminance density and directional control for focused indicator applications |

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 TLHR5201 | Higher typical luminous intensity (60 mcd vs. 50 mcd at 10 mA); same wavelength, package, and electrical specs | Preferred where higher brightness is required without changing PCB layout or drive circuit | Select TLHR5201 when >50 mcd output is needed; identical footprint and biasing |
| Kingbright WP7113SURK | 5 mm red LED with 115–230 mcd output, 625 nm dominant wavelength, and ±15° viewing angle; same T-1¾ package | Brighter output and slightly wider beam; requires verification of forward voltage match (2.0–2.4 V) in existing bias networks | Choose WP7113SURK for enhanced visibility at distance; confirm resistor recalibration for 20 mA drive |
Compared with TLHR5200, TLHR5201 offers higher intensity within the same binning and thermal envelope, while WP7113SURK provides greater lumen output and marginally wider viewing but requires forward voltage validation in legacy circuits.

FAQ
What is the luminous intensity range of TLHR5200 at 10 mA?
The TLHR5200 has a minimum luminous intensity of 10 mcd and a typical value of 50 mcd at 10 mA forward current, with no maximum specified. This range reflects factory binning for brightness uniformity, and TLHR5200 units shipped together maintain IVmin/IVmax ≤ 0.5 per packing unit, ensuring consistent appearance in multi-LED arrays.
What is the dominant wavelength specification for TLHR5200?
The TLHR5200 has a dominant wavelength range of 612 nm to 630 nm at 10 mA forward current. This tightly controlled red spectral band ensures color consistency across production lots and supports visual uniformity in applications such as branded control panels and safety-critical status indicators.
Does TLHR5200 support pulsed operation, and what is its surge current rating?
Yes, TLHR5200 supports pulsed operation with a surge forward current rating of 1 A for pulse widths ≤10 μs. This enables use in multiplexed displays or PWM-driven brightness control without thermal degradation, provided average power remains within the 100 mW dissipation limit and junction temperature stays below 100 °C.
What is the viewing angle of TLHR5200, and how does it affect optical performance?
The TLHR5200 has an angle of half intensity of ±14°, meaning luminous intensity drops to 50% at 14° off-axis. This narrow beam produces high on-axis brightness for localized indication while minimizing optical crosstalk between adjacent LEDs on dense panels or in confined enclosures.
What package type and lead configuration does TLHR5200 use?
TLHR5200 uses a standard 5 mm (T-1¾) radial-leaded plastic package with stand-offs. The anode is the longer lead; the cathode is identified by the shorter lead and a flat edge on the lens housing. This configuration supports both manual and automated through-hole assembly and is compatible with industry-standard tape-and-reel formats (e.g., AS12/AS21 orientation codes).
