Product details
Overview
VLMP3107-GS08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a surface-mount green LED in PLCC-2 package, emitting at dominant wavelength 562–575 nm with typical luminous intensity of 16 mcd at 10 mA, forward voltage 2.1–2.8 V at 20 mA, and ±60° viewing angle. It is designed for indicator and backlighting applications in office equipment and LCD panels.
For engineers reviewing the VLMP3107-GS08 datasheet, VLMP3107-GS08 pinout, VLMP3107-GS08 application, or VLMP3107-GS08 equivalent, this page delivers verified optical, electrical, and packaging data - including JEDEC level 2a preconditioning compliance, 8 mm tape packaging, and thermal resistance of 400 K/W - to support reliable SMD integration and brightness-bin-aware BOM planning.
Technical Context
This green LED uses GaP-on-GaP technology with non-diffused lens for efficient light coupling into light pipes and backlight assemblies. Its PLCC-2 package features white thermoplastic body, embedded lead frame, and clear epoxy-filled reflector cavity - optimized for IR/vapor-phase/wave soldering per CECC 00802 and J-STD-020.
Rated for DC forward current up to 20 mA (Tamb ≤ 74 °C), it operates across -40 to +100 °C ambient range with 6 V reverse voltage tolerance and 10 μA max reverse leakage. Luminous intensity ratio within one reel is tightly controlled (IVmax/IVmin ≤ 1.6) to ensure consistent brightness in automated assembly.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Dominant wavelength | 562–575 nm - defines visible green output suitable for high-contrast indicators and symbol illumination |
| Luminous intensity | 4.5–18 mcd at 10 mA - supports brightness-binned selection (e.g., Group K = 7.1–11.2 mcd) for uniform panel lighting |
| Forward voltage | 2.1–2.8 V at 20 mA - enables low-power operation compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic-supplied driver circuits |
| Viewing angle | ±60° - provides wide, symmetric beam pattern ideal for front-panel indicators and edge-lit backlighting |
| Package | PLCC-2 (3.5 × 2.8 mm, 1.75 mm height) - standard EIA/ICE-compliant SMD footprint with 8 mm tape (GS08 = 1500 pcs/reel) |
| Ambient temp. range | -40 to +100 °C - supports deployment in industrial control panels and automotive cabin interfaces |
| Junction-to-ambient Rth | 400 K/W on >16 mm² PCB pad - informs thermal derating for continuous 20 mA operation in enclosed enclosures |
Pinout & Package
PLCC-2 package: 2-pin surface-mount device with cathode (shorter lead, marked by notch or dot) and anode terminals. Body dimensions: 3.5 ± 0.2 mm × 2.8 ± 0.15 mm × 1.75 ± 0.1 mm height; lead pitch 2.2 mm; mounting pad layout per drawing 6.541-5067.01-4 (Issue 10, 02.05.2023).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Non-diffused lens | Enables precise coupling to light guides and backlights without scattering loss - critical for uniform LCD edge-lighting |
| Brightness binning | IVmax/IVmin ≤ 1.6 per reel ensures consistent luminance across assembled units, reducing post-production calibration |
| JEDEC level 2a preconditioning | Guarantees moisture sensitivity handling compliance for Pb-free reflow (peak 260 °C), eliminating bake requirements if sealed bag used within 672 h |
| Low profile | 1.75 mm max height allows integration in space-constrained front panels and ultra-thin display bezels |
| Solder process compatibility | Validated for infrared reflow, vapor phase, and wave soldering - supports high-yield automated manufacturing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar green LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMG3102-GS08 | Higher typical luminous intensity (16 mcd → 16 mcd typ, but 11.2–18 mcd max vs. VLMP3107-GS08's 4.5–18 mcd) | Same PLCC-2 package and wavelength range; intended for higher-brightness indicator use cases | Select when tighter upper-intensity ceiling (18 mcd max) and Group L binning are required for visual consistency |
| VLMG3105-GS08 | Identical optical specs (562–575 nm, 4.5–18 mcd), same package, but shipped in GS18 tape (8000 pcs/reel) instead of GS08 | No functional difference; suited for high-volume production requiring larger reel quantities | Choose for cost-optimized procurement where tape quantity (8000 pcs) aligns with line-side replenishment strategy |
Compared with VLMP3107-GS08, VLMG3102-GS08 offers higher minimum intensity for demanding visibility, while VLMG3105-GS08 provides identical performance in a high-density tape format - enabling trade-offs between brightness consistency, volume logistics, and line-side stocking efficiency.

FAQ
What is the dominant wavelength range of the VLMP3107-GS08?
The VLMP3107-GS08 has a dominant wavelength range of 562–575 nm, placing its output firmly in the green portion of the visible spectrum. This range is measured at 10 mA forward current and ensures consistent color perception across production lots. The peak wavelength is specified at 565 nm, supporting high-contrast visual signaling in both ambient and low-light environments.
What is the maximum forward current rating for VLMP3107-GS08 under normal operating conditions?
The VLMP3107-GS08 is rated for a maximum DC forward current of 20 mA when ambient temperature is ≤ 74 °C. At higher temperatures, derating is required per Fig. 1 in the datasheet. Exceeding 20 mA risks accelerated degradation and reduced lifetime. Surge current is limited to 0.34 A for pulses ≤ 10 μs, applicable only in transient protection scenarios.
Does VLMP3107-GS08 require baking before reflow soldering?
VLMP3107-GS08 is preconditioned to JEDEC level 2a and shipped in moisture-barrier dry bags. If the sealed bag is opened and the reel is stored at <30 °C and ≤60 % RH, it must be mounted within 672 hours to avoid baking. If exposed beyond that window or if the humidity indicator card reads >10 %, baking at 60 ± 5 °C for 96 hours (<5 % RH) is required prior to reflow.
What does the "GS08" suffix indicate in VLMP3107-GS08?
The "GS08" suffix denotes Vishay's standard 8 mm carrier tape packaging option containing 1500 pieces per reel. It complies with DIN IEC 40 (CO) 564 and is optimized for automatic pick-and-place equipment. GS08 differs from GS18 (8000 pcs/reel) in tape width, sprocket hole spacing, and reel dimensions - GS08 is preferred for prototyping and medium-volume production.
Is VLMP3107-GS08 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, VLMP3107-GS08 is fully compatible with lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-020. Its recommended profile peaks at 245 °C (max 260 °C for ≤100 s), with ramp rates limited to 3 °C/s (up) and 6 °C/s (down). The device withstands the thermal stress of Pb-free processes due to its PLCC-2 construction and qualified epoxy/thermoplastic materials.
