Product details
Overview
TLMO1000-GS08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a soft orange AlInGaP surface-mount LED in 0603 package (1.6 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.6 mm), rated for 2 mA forward current, delivering 3.55–7.5 mcd luminous intensity with dominant wavelength 600–609 nm and ±80° viewing angle. It serves as an indicator or backlight element in space-constrained automotive and industrial displays.
For engineers reviewing the TLMO1000-GS08 datasheet, TLMO1000-GS08 pinout, TLMO1000-GS08 application, or TLMO1000-GS08 equivalent, this page provides verified optical, electrical, thermal, and packaging specifications - including AEC-Q102 qualification, JEDEC Level 2 preconditioning, and IR reflow compatibility - to support reliable integration into miniaturized, high-reliability designs.
Technical Context
This soft orange LED uses AlInGaP semiconductor technology on a high-reliability lead frame, operating at low drive current (2 mA) with forward voltage 1.8–2.6 V and junction capacitance 15 pF. Its ±80° half-intensity angle enables wide-angle illumination without secondary optics.
Rated for -40 °C to +105 °C ambient operation and qualified to AEC-Q102, the TLMO1000-GS08 supports automotive interior lighting and industrial HMI where thermal stability and moisture resistance are critical. Thermal resistance junction-to-ambient is 500 K/W on standard PCB pads (>5 mm²).

Pinout & Package
Package: SMD 0603 (1.6 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.6 mm), footprint-compatible with industry-standard 0603 ChipLEDs. Anode and cathode terminals are located on opposite ends of the rectangular body per standard polarized SMD LED layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (A) | Positive terminal | Connected to current source; polarity must be observed to avoid reverse-bias damage (max VR = 12 V) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar soft orange LED applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLMO1000-GS15 | Same die, identical optical/electrical specs; differs only in tape packaging (GS15 = 8 mm tape, GS08 = 8 mm tape with different reel ID) | No functional difference - GS15 and GS08 denote reel configuration variants, not performance grades | Select GS08 for systems requiring Vishay's standard 8 mm carrier tape with MOQ = 5000 pcs per reel |
| Kingbright APT1608SGC | Soft orange 0603 LED with 605 nm dominant wavelength, 4.5–9.0 mcd at 2 mA, but not AEC-Q102 qualified | Suitable for commercial-grade industrial panels but not automotive interior applications requiring qualification | Choose TLMO1000-GS08 when AEC-Q102 compliance and extended temperature operation are mandatory |
Compared with TLMO1000-GS15, TLMO1000-GS08 offers identical photometric and electrical behavior but distinct reel labeling for traceability; versus Kingbright APT1608SGC, TLMO1000-GS08 adds automotive-grade reliability and wider temperature margin at the cost of slightly lower typical luminous intensity.

FAQ
What is the dominant wavelength range of the TLMO1000-GS08?
The TLMO1000-GS08 has a dominant wavelength range of 600 nm to 609 nm, measured at 2 mA forward current. This soft orange spectral output is achieved using AlInGaP semiconductor technology and is binned per Vishay's color classification groups 2–6 to ensure consistency across production reels.
Is the TLMO1000-GS08 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the TLMO1000-GS08 is AEC-Q102 qualified, meaning it has passed rigorous stress testing for automotive optoelectronic components-including thermal cycling, high-temperature operating life, and mechanical shock-making it suitable for dashboard, center console, and interior lighting systems.
What is the maximum forward current rating for TLMO1000-GS08?
The absolute maximum DC forward current for TLMO1000-GS08 is 30 mA at ambient temperatures ≤ 80 °C. However, its optical specifications (luminous intensity, wavelength) are characterized at 2 mA, and typical operation is recommended at or below this level for optimal efficiency and longevity.
Does TLMO1000-GS08 require baking before reflow soldering?
No, TLMO1000-GS08 is preconditioned to JEDEC Level 2 and shipped in dry-packed anti-humidity bags with J-STD-033 labels. It can undergo standard Pb-free IR reflow (peak 255 °C) without prior baking if used within 1 year of bag opening under ≤30 °C / 60 % RH conditions.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for TLMO1000-GS08?
The thermal resistance junction-to-ambient (RthJA) of TLMO1000-GS08 is 500 K/W when mounted on a standard PCB with pad area > 5 mm². This value reflects natural convection cooling and informs thermal design margins for continuous operation in high-temperature environments.
