Product details
Overview
VLMO1300-GS08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a surface-mount soft orange LED in the 0603 ChipLED package, delivering 45–90 mcd luminous intensity at 20 mA with dominant wavelength 605 nm and forward voltage 2.0–2.4 V. It uses AlInGaP technology, operates from –35 °C to +85 °C, and serves as an indicator or backlight in compact industrial and consumer displays.
For engineers reviewing the VLMO1300-GS08 datasheet, VLMO1300-GS08 pinout, VLMO1300-GS08 application, or VLMO1300-GS08 equivalent, this page provides verified optical, electrical, thermal, and packaging data - including luminous intensity binning, JEDEC Level 3 preconditioning compliance, IR reflow compatibility, and cathode polarity marking - essential for reliable integration into space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The VLMO1300-GS08 is a monolithic AlInGaP-based light-emitting diode optimized for visible-spectrum indication in high-density SMD assemblies. Its 0603 footprint (1.6 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.8 mm) integrates a planar chip die with epoxy lens encapsulation and cathode-marked anode/cathode terminals.
It operates within a DC forward current range of 0–30 mA (absolute max), exhibits ±65° angle of half intensity, 17 nm spectral line half-width, and 40 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz - characteristics validated under Tamb = 25 °C per Vishay Document 82437 Rev. 1.6.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity | 45–90 mcd at 20 mA - enables clear visibility in low-ambient-light UIs without excessive drive current |
| Dominant wavelength | 605 nm - defines soft orange chromaticity suitable for status indication with high human-eye sensitivity |
| Forward voltage | 2.0–2.4 V at 20 mA - compatible with standard 3.3 V and 5 V logic-supply rail designs |
| Viewing angle | ±65° half-intensity - provides wide 130° total viewing cone for off-axis readability |
| Operating temperature | –35 °C to +85 °C - supports deployment in automotive cabin, industrial HMI, and outdoor-adjacent enclosures |
| Package size | 1.6 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.8 mm - fits tight-pitch layouts where board area is constrained |
| Junction capacitance | 40 pF at VR = 0 V, f = 1 MHz - negligible impact on high-speed PWM dimming up to ~100 kHz |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMD 0603 ChipLED (1.6 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.8 mm), cathode-indicated via notch or mark on top surface per Vishay drawing 6.541-5092.01-4.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (A) | Positive LED terminal | Connected to current-limiting resistor or constant-current driver output; must be biased >2.0 V above cathode |
| Cathode (K) | Negative LED terminal | Marked physically on package; tied to ground or low-side switch; reverse voltage rating limited to 5 V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super-thin profile | 0.8 mm height enables flush mounting beneath thin overlays or in stacked PCB assemblies |
| JEDEC Level 3 preconditioning | Qualified for moisture-sensitive handling - requires dry storage or baking if exposed >168 h at >60 % RH |
| IR reflow compatible | Withstands peak 260 °C for ≤10 s per J-STD-020C - eliminates need for selective soldering in mixed-technology boards |
| Wide viewing angle | 130° total beam spread ensures consistent brightness across angled user interfaces and multi-operator panels |
| AlInGaP technology | Delivers stable soft orange output with low thermal drift vs. InGaN blue/green variants |
Applications
| Backlight keypads | Navigation systems |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Illuminating tactile membrane keypads in automotive dashboards and medical handhelds. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete visual indicator driven by GPIO or constant-current LED driver. Use Value: 45–90 mcd output ensures legibility under varying ambient light; 0603 size allows placement directly behind small keycaps. |
Use Scenario: Status indicators for GPS signal lock, route recalculation, or battery level in portable navigation units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone optical feedback element, not synchronized to timing signals. Use Value: Soft orange 605 nm wavelength offers high contrast against black/dark-gray UI backgrounds without glare. |
| Cellular phone displays | Industrial control system displays |
Use Scenario: Power-on, charging, or notification LEDs on legacy feature phones and ruggedized handsets. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-duty-cycle pulsed indicator controlled by baseband or PMIC GPIO. Use Value: 20 mA nominal drive aligns with PMIC LED sink capabilities; 2.0–2.4 V VF simplifies resistor selection from 3.3 V rails. |
Use Scenario: Run/stop/fault status lights on PLC I/O modules and HMI operator panels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Directly driven discrete emitter with no integrated logic or protocol interface. Use Value: –35 °C to +85 °C operating range ensures reliability in unconditioned factory environments and outdoor cabinets. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMS1300-GS08 | Super red (631 nm), lower luminous intensity (18–54 mcd), same 0603 package and VF range | Better suited for red-alert signaling or color-coded status where spectral separation from orange is required | Select when red chromaticity and lower brightness are preferred over soft orange visibility |
| VLMY1300-GS08 | Yellow (584.5–597 nm), higher max intensity (180 mcd), same AlInGaP process and 0603 footprint | Used where warmer yellow tone improves differentiation from adjacent green/red indicators in multicolor arrays | Choose for applications requiring higher lumen output and warmer hue, accepting wider wavelength tolerance band |
Compared with VLMO1300-GS08, VLMS1300-GS08 provides red-specific signaling with reduced intensity headroom, while VLMY1300-GS08 trades precise orange chromaticity for broader yellow emission and higher luminous output - both retain identical mechanical fit and thermal derating behavior.

FAQ
What is the maximum forward current rating for VLMO1300-GS08?
The absolute maximum DC forward current for VLMO1300-GS08 is 30 mA at Tamb ≤ 25 °C, per Vishay Document 82437. Continuous operation above 20 mA requires thermal derating per Fig. 1, and surge current up to 80 mA is allowed only at 1/10 duty cycle and 0.1 ms pulse width. Exceeding these limits risks accelerated degradation or catastrophic failure of the AlInGaP die.
Does VLMO1300-GS08 have built-in ESD protection?
No, VLMO1300-GS08 does not include integrated ESD protection. Its HBM ESD rating is not specified in the datasheet, unlike VLMB1310-GS08 (8000 V). Designers must implement external protection - such as series current-limiting resistors and PCB layout practices minimizing trace inductance - especially in handling and assembly environments exceeding 1000 V HBM.
Can VLMO1300-GS08 be used with standard lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes, VLMO1300-GS08 is qualified for IR lead-free reflow per J-STD-020C, with a peak temperature of 255 °C (max 260 °C for ≤10 s) and time above liquidus of 60–150 s. The device undergoes JEDEC Level 3 preconditioning, so proper dry-pack handling and baking (if exposed >168 h at >60 % RH) are mandatory before reflow to prevent popcorning.
What is the luminous intensity binning structure for VLMO1300-GS08?
VLMO1300-GS08 is binned into intensity groups P (45–71 mcd) and Q (71–112 mcd), per Vishay's Luminous Intensity Classification table. Each reel ships only one intensity group - mixing is prohibited - and the GS08 suffix indicates Group S (180–280 mcd) is not applicable; VLMO1300-GS08 specifically falls in the P/Q range per its 45–90 mcd spec.
How is cathode polarity identified on the VLMO1300-GS08 package?
The cathode of VLMO1300-GS08 is marked by a physical notch or beveled edge on the top surface of the 0603 package, aligned with the cathode pad in the recommended solder footprint (drawing 6.541-5092.01-4). This marking is consistent across the VLMx1300 series and must be verified optically before placement to avoid reverse-bias damage during initial power-up.
