Product details
Overview
VLDY1535R-08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a yellow surface-mount LED with dome lens, designed for high-brightness indicator and backlighting applications. It delivers 4500–14 000 mcd luminous intensity at 50 mA, features AlInGaP-on-Si chip technology, ±22° viewing angle, and operates with 1.9–2.7 V forward voltage.
For engineers reviewing the VLDY1535R-08 datasheet, VLDY1535R-08 pinout, VLDY1535R-08 application, or VLDY1535R-08 equivalent, this page provides verified optical/electrical specs, thermal derating curves, JEDEC level 2a moisture sensitivity data, gullwing/reverse gullwing package dimensions, and real-world use context for traffic signage, industrial indicators, and LCD backlighting.
Technical Context
The VLDY1535R-08 uses AlInGaP-on-Si die architecture to achieve high luminous intensity (up to 14 000 mcd) and stable yellow emission (583–595 nm dominant wavelength) under DC forward current up to 70 mA. Its ±22° half-intensity angle and 2.3 × 2.3 × 2.6 mm SMD dome lens package enable directional light output with minimal beam spread.
Thermal resistance is 325 K/W junction-to-ambient when mounted on ≥16 mm² PCB copper pad, supporting operation from –40 °C to +100 °C ambient. ESD withstand voltage reaches 2 kV (HBM, JESD22-A114-B), and it complies with J-STD-020 reflow profiles including peak temperature ≤260 °C for ≤100 s.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar yellow LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLDY1535G-08 | Same package and optics, but green-emitting (525 nm typ.) with identical 4500–14 000 mcd intensity range | Used where color coding requires green instead of yellow (e.g., "ready" vs. "warning" states) | Select VLDY1535G-08 only when green chromaticity is required; otherwise VLDY1535R-08 maintains yellow compliance. |
| VLDR1535R-08 | Red-emitting (624 nm typ.), higher intensity (3550–11 200 mcd), same 2.3 × 2.3 mm package and ±22° viewing angle | Preferred for red-status applications like power-off or alarm indicators where yellow is not color-coded | Choose VLDR1535R-08 for red signaling; VLDY1535R-08 is mandatory where yellow is specified per ISO/SAE standards. |
Compared with VLDY1535G-08 and VLDR1535R-08, the VLDY1535R-08 uniquely satisfies yellow-specific signaling requirements-its 589 nm typical dominant wavelength and FA intensity binning ensure regulatory-compliant chromaticity and brightness consistency where green or red alternatives would fail color validation.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable forward current for VLDY1535R-08 at 85 °C ambient temperature?
The VLDY1535R-08 supports 70 mA DC forward current only when ambient temperature is ≤60 °C. At 85 °C, derating applies: Fig. 1 shows maximum permissible current drops to ~45 mA. Exceeding this risks accelerated lumen depreciation and junction overheating beyond the 125 °C limit. Always consult the thermal resistance (325 K/W) and actual board copper area when designing for elevated temperatures. The VLDY1535R-08 must be operated within these limits to maintain rated lifetime.
Does VLDY1535R-08 have a built-in current-limiting resistor?
No, the VLDY1535R-08 is a bare LED die in an SMD package with no integrated current-limiting resistor. It requires an external series resistor or constant-current driver to regulate forward current to 50 mA (typical operating point) or up to 70 mA (absolute max at Tamb ≤ 60 °C). The VLDY1535R-08 forward voltage range of 1.9–2.7 V at 50 mA means resistor value must be calculated per actual VF measurement and supply voltage. Failure to include external current control will cause thermal runaway and premature failure of the VLDY1535R-08.
Is VLDY1535R-08 suitable for outdoor traffic signal applications?
Yes, the VLDY1535R-08 is explicitly designed for traffic signals and signs per its Applications section. Its 14 000 mcd max luminous intensity at 50 mA, ±22° viewing angle, and –40 °C to +100 °C operating range meet outdoor visibility and environmental durability requirements. The dome lens provides UV-stable optical coupling, and the AlInGaP-on-Si chip ensures low wavelength shift over temperature (Fig. 9 shows <10 nm drift from –40 °C to +100 °C). For full compliance, pair the VLDY1535R-08 with appropriate thermal management and IP-rated housing.
What does the "R" suffix in VLDY1535R-08 indicate?
The "R" in VLDY1535R-08 denotes reverse gullwing lead configuration-cathode and anode leads extend from opposite sides of the 2.3 × 2.3 mm body, enabling orthogonal PCB routing and improved mechanical stability during reflow. This contrasts with the "G" suffix (e.g., VLDY1535G-08), which indicates standard gullwing leads on the same side. Both variants share identical optical, electrical, and thermal specs; the "R" solely defines mechanical mounting orientation. The VLDY1535R-08 drawing number is 6.544-5409.01-4.
How is luminous intensity binned for VLDY1535R-08, and what does "FA" mean?
VLDY1535R-08 is binned into luminous intensity groups per Table "LUMINOUS INTENSITY CLASSIFICATION": "FA" corresponds to 7100–9000 mcd at 50 mA. Each reel ships only one intensity group-no mixing-and FA is one of six standard bins (CA through FA). This ensures brightness uniformity across production lots. The VLDY1535R-08 datasheet specifies that FA-group devices deliver predictable visual output in multi-LED arrays, critical for consistent panel appearance in HMI and signage. Binning tolerance is ±15 % per test condition.
