Product details
Overview
VLMP20D2G1-GS08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a pure green low-current MiniLED SMD device in a 2.3 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.4 mm white package, rated for 2 mA forward current, with dominant wavelength 555–565 nm, luminous intensity 0.56–2.24 mcd, and ±60° viewing angle - optimized for automotive dashboard backlighting and industrial indicator applications.
For engineers reviewing the VLMP20D2G1-GS08 datasheet, VLMP20D2G1-GS08 pinout, VLMP20D2G1-GS08 application, or VLMP20D2G1-GS08 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, non-diffused lens for light-pipe coupling, JEDEC Level 2a preconditioning, 2 kV ESD rating, and compatibility with IR reflow per J-STD-020.
Technical Context
This is a surface-mount AlInGaP-on-GaAs LED emitting in the pure green spectrum (555–565 nm dominant wavelength), designed for low-power operation at 2 mA nominal forward current and rated for continuous operation up to +100 °C ambient temperature. Its optical design features a non-diffused lens and ±60° half-intensity angle, enabling precise light directionality in space-constrained indicators.
The device meets AEC-Q101 stress testing requirements for automotive use and supports automated placement via 8 mm tape packaging (GS08 = 3000 pcs/reel). Thermal resistance is 580 K/W when mounted on a PCB pad >5 mm², and junction capacitance is 15 pF at 0 V reverse bias and 1 MHz.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar pure green LED applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMY20K1L2-GS08 | Yellow emission (581–594 nm), higher luminous intensity (7.1–18 mcd) | Suitable where color coding requires yellow instead of green; not spectrally interchangeable | Select when higher brightness or yellow hue is required; not a spectral substitute for VLMP20D2G1-GS08 |
| VLMS20J2L1-GS08 | Super red emission (630 nm), higher luminous intensity (5.6–14 mcd) | Used for red-status signaling; incompatible for green-specific safety or regulatory color mandates | Choose only for red-indicator roles; no wavelength overlap with VLMP20D2G1-GS08's 555–565 nm band |
Compared with VLMP20D2G1-GS08, VLMY20K1L2-GS08 delivers higher brightness but shifts output to yellow, while VLMS20J2L1-GS08 provides red emission with greater intensity - neither replicates the pure green chromaticity or low-intensity binning (Group D/G) essential for applications requiring precise green signaling and low-power operation.

FAQ
What is the dominant wavelength range of VLMP20D2G1-GS08?
The dominant wavelength range of VLMP20D2G1-GS08 is 555 nm to 565 nm, placing it firmly in the pure green portion of the visible spectrum. This specification is measured at 2 mA forward current and ensures consistent color output for applications requiring strict green chromaticity, such as automotive warning indicators and safety-critical status lights. The VLMP20D2G1-GS08 uses AlInGaP-on-GaAs technology to achieve this narrow, stable green band.
Is VLMP20D2G1-GS08 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, VLMP20D2G1-GS08 is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed rigorous stress tests for temperature cycling, humidity, mechanical shock, and ESD required for automotive-grade reliability. It operates across -40 °C to +100 °C ambient temperature and supports IR reflow soldering per J-STD-020 - making VLMP20D2G1-GS08 suitable for dashboard backlighting and switch illumination in passenger vehicles and commercial transport systems.
What is the maximum forward current rating for VLMP20D2G1-GS08?
The absolute maximum DC forward current for VLMP20D2G1-GS08 is 15 mA at ambient temperatures ≤100 °C. However, its typical operating condition is 2 mA, which delivers optimal luminous intensity (0.56–2.24 mcd) while minimizing power dissipation (≤40 mW) and thermal stress. Exceeding 2 mA significantly increases junction temperature and may reduce lifetime - VLMP20D2G1-GS08 is specifically designed as a low-current indicator LED, not a high-brightness illuminator.
Does VLMP20D2G1-GS08 have a diffused or non-diffused lens?
VLMP20D2G1-GS08 features a non-diffused lens, as explicitly stated in the Vishay datasheet. This optical design enables highly directional light output with ±60° half-intensity angle, making it ideal for coupling into light pipes, backlighting narrow symbols, and achieving sharp, localized illumination behind translucent overlays. The non-diffused lens preserves luminance density and avoids the intensity loss associated with diffused optics - a key advantage for VLMP20D2G1-GS08 in space-constrained front-panel applications.
What packaging format is used for VLMP20D2G1-GS08?
VLMP20D2G1-GS08 is supplied in an 8 mm tape format designated GS08, containing 3000 units per reel. The tape complies with EIA-481 standards and includes leader/trailer sections (min. 400 mm leader, min. 200 mm trailer) and dry-pack moisture protection per JESD22-A112 Level 2a. Each reel ships with a Vishay-standard bar code label containing part number, batch, quantity, and environmental compliance data - ensuring full traceability and safe handling for VLMP20D2G1-GS08 in automated SMT lines.
