Product details
Overview
VLMP31H2J2-GS08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a surface-mount pure green LED in PLCC-2 package, designed for indicator and backlighting applications requiring high luminous intensity (3.55–7.1 mcd at 6 mA), narrow dominant wavelength range (555–565 nm), and ±60° viewing angle. It uses AlInGaP-on-GaAs technology, operates at 2.1–2.8 V forward voltage (at 20 mA), and is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the VLMP31H2J2-GS08 datasheet, VLMP31H2J2-GS08 pinout, VLMP31H2J2-GS08 application, or VLMP31H2J2-GS08 equivalent, key selection criteria include luminous intensity binning (H2/J2 group), thermal resistance (400 K/W), JEDEC level 2a preconditioning compliance, and compatibility with IR reflow soldering per J-STD-020.
Technical Context
This device is a monolithic AlInGaP-on-GaAs chip mounted in a white thermoplastic PLCC-2 package with clear epoxy lens and integrated reflector. Its non-diffused lens enables efficient coupling to light pipes and LCD backlights, while its low-profile construction supports high-density PCB layouts.
The VLMP31H2J2-GS08 is binned for luminous intensity (H-group min 2.8 mcd, J-group max 7.1 mcd) and dominant wavelength (Group 2: 560–563 nm), with IVmax/IVmin ≤ 1.6 within a reel. It supports DC forward current up to 30 mA at Tamb ≤ 85 °C and withstands ESD up to 2 kV (HBM, JESD22-A114-B).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity | 3.55–7.1 mcd at 6 mA - defines brightness consistency across H2/J2 binning for uniform visual indication |
| Dominant wavelength | 555–565 nm - ensures consistent pure green color perception under standard viewing conditions |
| Forward voltage | 2.1–2.8 V at 20 mA - determines series resistor sizing and power budget in 3.3 V/5 V indicator circuits |
| Viewing angle | ±60° - provides wide, even illumination suitable for front-panel indicators and symbol backlighting |
| Junction-to-ambient Rth | 400 K/W on >16 mm² pad - sets thermal derating limits for continuous operation above 25 °C ambient |
| ESD withstand | 2 kV HBM - confirms robustness during automated handling and board assembly without special ESD controls |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive dashboard and switch backlighting - meets stress test requirements for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock |
Pinout & Package
VLMP31H2J2-GS08 uses a 2-pin PLCC-2 surface-mount package with cathode-anode polarity marked by a notch on the package body. The lead frame is embedded in white thermoplastic, and the lens is non-diffused clear epoxy.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (A) | Positive terminal | Connected to current-limiting resistor; must be biased ≥2.1 V above cathode for conduction |
| Cathode (K) | Negative terminal | Typically tied to ground or low-side switch; polarity reversal allowed only for short-term pulsed operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Non-diffused lens | Enables direct optical coupling to light guides and edge-lit LCD backlights without scattering loss |
| Luminous intensity ratio ≤1.6 | Ensures minimal brightness variation between LEDs on same reel - critical for uniform panel lighting |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validates reliability for automotive interior lighting including instrument clusters and center console switches |
| JEDEC level 2a preconditioning | Confirms moisture sensitivity level (MSL) compliance for standard SMT reflow without baking |
| IR reflow compatible | Supports peak temperatures up to 260 °C per J-STD-020 - eliminates need for specialized solder profiles |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMP31G2J1-GS08 | Luminous intensity range 2.24–5.6 mcd - lower brightness bin than VLMP31H2J2-GS08 | Suitable where reduced brightness suffices to meet contrast requirements under ambient light | Select when tighter luminance control is needed and lower output is acceptable |
| VLMP3102-GS08 | Luminous intensity range 2.8–5.6 mcd - overlaps H2/J2 but lacks J2 upper bound (7.1 mcd) | Preferred for cost-sensitive designs where max brightness is not required | Choose for general-purpose indicators where full J2-range intensity is unnecessary |
Compared with VLMP31G2J1-GS08 and VLMP3102-GS08, the VLMP31H2J2-GS08 delivers higher guaranteed minimum intensity (3.55 mcd vs. 2.24/2.8 mcd) and extends to 7.1 mcd, making it optimal for applications demanding both visibility in bright environments and bin-to-bin consistency across production reels.

FAQ
What is the luminous intensity range of the VLMP31H2J2-GS08?
The VLMP31H2J2-GS08 has a luminous intensity range of 3.55–7.1 mcd at 6 mA forward current, corresponding to its H2/J2 binning classification. This range ensures consistent brightness across units on the same reel, with IVmax/IVmin ≤ 1.6. The value is measured using a 25 ms current pulse and reflects real-world performance in indicator and backlighting circuits where visibility and uniformity are critical. VLMP31H2J2-GS08 maintains this specification across its operating temperature range of -40 to +100 °C.
Is the VLMP31H2J2-GS08 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the VLMP31H2J2-GS08 is AEC-Q101 qualified, confirming its suitability for automotive interior lighting applications such as dashboard backlighting and switch illumination. It operates reliably from -40 to +100 °C ambient temperature and meets stringent stress tests for thermal cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock. Its PLCC-2 package and JEDEC level 2a preconditioning also support standard automotive manufacturing processes. VLMP31H2J2-GS08 is explicitly referenced in Vishay's documentation for automotive dashboard use.
What is the forward voltage specification for VLMP31H2J2-GS08?
The VLMP31H2J2-GS08 has a forward voltage range of 2.1–2.8 V at 20 mA DC forward current. This specification determines the required series resistor value in constant-current or resistor-limited drive configurations and impacts power dissipation (max 80 mW). The voltage remains stable across its operating temperature range, with typical drift of ±300 mV from -40 to +100 °C. Designers should reference this range when selecting driver circuitry for VLMP31H2J2-GS08 in 3.3 V or 5 V systems.
Does VLMP31H2J2-GS08 require baking before reflow soldering?
No, VLMP31H2J2-GS08 does not require baking prior to reflow soldering because it is preconditioned to JEDEC level 2a and shipped in dry-packed antistatic tape. It supports peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C per J-STD-020, with a maximum floor life of 672 hours at ≤30 °C and ≤60 % RH after bag opening. If exposed beyond that limit, baking at 40 °C/<5 % RH for 192 hours or 60 °C/<5 % RH for 96 hours restores moisture safety. VLMP31H2J2-GS08's MSL-2a rating is confirmed in Vishay's official documentation.
What package type and pin configuration does VLMP31H2J2-GS08 use?
VLMP31H2J2-GS08 uses a 2-pin PLCC-2 (Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier) surface-mount package with a white thermoplastic body and clear non-diffused epoxy lens. Pin 1 (anode) and Pin 2 (cathode) are identified by a physical notch on the package top edge. The device is polarized, with forward current flowing from anode to cathode; reverse bias is permitted only for short-duration pulses. The recommended footprint specifies 2.6 mm × 1.6 mm pads with soldermask-defined areas, matching the mechanical drawing 6.541-5067.01-4.
