Overview
VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a white surface-mount LED in PLCC-2 package, built with InGaN on sapphire die and TAG phosphor conversion, delivering 160 mcd typical luminous intensity at 5 mA, 5500 K color temperature, and ±60° viewing angle for indicator and automotive lighting applications.
For engineers reviewing the VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 datasheet, VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 pinout, VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 application, or VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage (3.3–4.2 V at 20 mA), chromaticity coordinates (x=0.33, y=0.33), thermal resistance (360 K/W), AEC-Q101 qualification, and JEDEC level 2a moisture sensitivity.
Technical Context
This device uses blue InGaN LED chip with TAG phosphor layer to generate white light via partial wavelength conversion; chromaticity is binned per CIE 1931 with 5K6L designation indicating x/y coordinate group spanning 0.296–0.330 (x) and 0.259–0.330 (y).
Rated for 20 mA DC forward current and 110 °C junction temperature, it features 360 K/W thermal resistance when mounted on ≥16 mm² PCB pad, and supports reflow, vapor phase, and wave soldering per J-STD-020 and CECC 00802.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar white SMD LED applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMW45R1S1-5K6K-08 | Same PLCC-2 package and InGaN/TAG technology, but 5K6K chromaticity bin (x/y = 0.296–0.330 / 0.259–0.284) | Slightly cooler white point; preferred where higher CCT consistency is required in multi-LED arrays | Select when tighter x/y tolerance is needed; not interchangeable without optical validation |
| VLMS3100-GS08 | PLCC-2 white LED, 140–200 mcd at 5 mA, 6000 K typical, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Targeted at consumer electronics; lacks automotive qualification and extended temperature validation | Use only in non-automotive designs where cost sensitivity outweighs qualification requirements |
Compared with VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08, the 5K6K variant offers a more constrained chromaticity window for color-critical UIs, while VLMS3100-GS08 trades automotive reliability for lower unit cost in commercial-grade indicators.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current rating for the VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08?
The VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 has a maximum DC forward current of 20 mA at ambient temperatures ≤ 80 °C. Exceeding this value risks accelerated lumen depreciation and junction temperature violation beyond the 110 °C limit. Derating is required above 80 °C per the datasheet's forward current vs. ambient temperature curve.
Is the VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 suitable for automotive exterior lighting applications?
Yes, the VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 is AEC-Q101 qualified and rated for -40 to +100 °C operating temperature, making it suitable for brake lights, turn signals, and side markers. Its PLCC-2 package and TAG phosphor formulation meet automotive color stability and thermal cycling requirements specified in the qualification test plan.
What does the "5K6L" suffix in VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 indicate?
The "5K6L" suffix identifies the chromaticity coordinate bin per Vishay's white LED binning system: "5K" defines the x-coordinate range (0.296–0.310), and "6L" defines the y-coordinate range (0.297–0.330), both referenced to CIE 1931. This ensures consistent 5500 K white light across production reels.
Can the VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 be used in reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 is compatible with Pb-free reflow soldering per J-STD-020, supporting peak temperatures up to 260 °C for ≤10 seconds. It is preconditioned to JEDEC level 2a and shipped in dry-packed antistatic tape reels to prevent moisture-related damage during assembly.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for the VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08?
The VLMW45R1S1-5K6L-08 has a thermal resistance of 360 K/W when mounted on a PCB pad area >16 mm². This value directly impacts steady-state junction temperature rise: at 20 mA and 3.8 V forward drop, power dissipation is ~76 mW, resulting in ~27 °C rise above ambient under ideal mounting conditions.
