For engineers reviewing the VLMO235U1V2-GS08 datasheet, VLMO235U1V2-GS08 pinout, VLMO235U1V2-GS08 application, or VLMO235U1V2-GS08 equivalent, key selection criteria include luminous intensity binning (U1 group), ±60° viewing angle, AlInGaP-on-Si technology, ESD withstand up to 2 kV, and JEDEC level 2a preconditioning compliance.
Technical Context
The VLMO235U1V2-GS08 is a surface-mount, top-emitting LED built on AlInGaP-on-Si substrate, optimized for stable optical output under thermal stress. Its 480 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance requires PCB pad area >16 mm² for rated 50 mA DC forward current operation at ≤60 °C ambient.
It operates within -40 °C to +100 °C ambient and storage temperature ranges, with peak wavelength at 611 nm and spectral bandwidth of 17 nm at 50% relative intensity. Reverse operation is not designed and limited to short-term use per specification note.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMK235T2V1-GS08 | Orange-red color (611–622 nm), lower luminous intensity (355–900 mcd), same package and drive conditions | Better suited for high-contrast warning indicators where longer wavelength improves visibility in daylight | Select when chromaticity must shift toward red for regulatory or perceptual reasons; not interchangeable for soft-orange color-critical uses |
| VLMO235U2V2-35-08 | Same soft orange color, higher luminous intensity bin (U2: 560–710 mcd), identical package and electrical specs | Used where tighter brightness consistency or higher output is required without changing layout | Drop-in upgrade for increased brightness; same footprint and solder profile but distinct binning and reel labeling |
Compared with VLMO235U1V2-GS08, VLMK235T2V1-GS08 shifts chromaticity toward red for enhanced daylight legibility but sacrifices soft-orange fidelity, while VLMO235U2V2-35-08 provides higher nominal output within the same color space-enabling brightness scaling without redesign.

FAQ
What is the luminous intensity range of the VLMO235U1V2-GS08 at 20 mA?
The VLMO235U1V2-GS08 delivers a luminous intensity of 450–1120 mcd at 20 mA forward current, corresponding to its U1 intensity bin classification per Vishay's documentation. This range ensures consistent brightness across production reels while allowing design margin for optical attenuation or aging. The typical value is 650 mcd, measured with ±11% accuracy at 25 °C ambient.
Is the VLMO235U1V2-GS08 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the VLMO235U1V2-GS08 is AEC-Q101 qualified and rated for operation from -40 °C to +100 °C, making it suitable for automotive interior lighting including dashboard symbols and HVAC controls. Its 480 K/W thermal resistance requires proper PCB copper area (>16 mm²) to sustain 50 mA drive in high-temperature cabin environments, and its ESD rating of 2 kV meets automotive assembly handling requirements.
What does the "U1" in VLMO235U1V2-GS08 signify?
The "U1" in VLMO235U1V2-GS08 denotes the luminous intensity bin, specifying a minimum of 450 mcd and maximum of 560 mcd at 20 mA. Vishay groups LEDs by intensity to ensure brightness consistency across reels; U1 is one of six standard bins (S through V), and each reel contains only one bin-no mixing occurs. This enables predictable optical performance in mass-produced indicator assemblies.
What is the forward voltage range of the VLMO235U1V2-GS08 at 20 mA?
The VLMO235U1V2-GS08 has a forward voltage range of 1.8 V (minimum) to 2.6 V (maximum) at 20 mA DC forward current, with a typical value of 2.0 V. This range informs driver selection and power budgeting: circuits must supply sufficient headroom above 2.6 V to maintain regulation, and thermal drift effects are bounded per Fig. 7 in the datasheet, showing <±0.3 V variation over -40 °C to +100 °C.
Does the VLMO235U1V2-GS08 have a defined viewing angle, and how is it measured?
Yes, the VLMO235U1V2-GS08 has a viewing angle of ±60°, defined as the angle at which luminous intensity drops to 50% of its axial (0°) value at 20 mA. This is measured per CIE 127 standard using angular photometry, and enables wide, uniform illumination without external optics-ideal for flat-panel indicators where light must be visible across broad operator angles in automotive and industrial HMI applications.
