Product details
Overview
VLMY233T2V2-GS08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a yellow power MiniLED SMD device in a 2.3 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.4 mm package, delivering 355–1120 mcd luminous intensity at 20 mA, with dominant wavelength 583–594 nm and forward voltage 1.8–2.6 V. It serves as a high-reliability indicator or backlighting element in automotive dashboards and industrial control panels under harsh ambient conditions.
For engineers reviewing the VLMY233T2V2-GS08 datasheet, VLMY233T2V2-GS08 pinout, VLMY233T2V2-GS08 application, or VLMY233T2V2-GS08 equivalent, this page delivers verified optical, electrical, thermal, and packaging specifications - including AEC-Q101 qualification, ±60° viewing angle, and JEDEC Level 2a moisture sensitivity - to support robust LED selection for safety-critical and high-temperature environments.
Technical Context
The VLMY233T2V2-GS08 uses AlInGaP-on-Si technology to achieve stable yellow emission with spectral bandwidth of 17 nm at 50% relative intensity and peak wavelength at 591 nm. Its thermal resistance junction-to-ambient is 480 K/W when mounted on a PCB with pad area >16 mm².
Rated for operation from –40 °C to +100 °C, it supports DC forward current up to 50 mA at Tamb ≤ 60 °C and withstands reverse voltage up to 5 V (short-term only). ESD tolerance reaches 2 kV per JESD22-A114-B, and IR reflow soldering complies with J-STD-020 lead-free profiles.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar yellow LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMO233U1AA-GS08 | Soft orange emission (600–611 nm), higher typical luminous intensity (760 mcd), same package and drive conditions | Better suited for warm-status indication where amber tone is preferred over yellow | Select when color coding requires distinct orange-yellow differentiation in multi-LED arrays |
| OSRAM LY M67F-T2V2-36 | Same dominant wavelength range (583–594 nm), identical luminous intensity binning (T2V2), but different thermal pad design | Requires validation of solder joint reliability due to alternate die attach and package mold compound | Use only when cross-qualified per OEM sourcing agreement; not drop-in due to mechanical footprint variance |
Compared with VLMO233U1AA-GS08 and OSRAM LY M67F-T2V2-36, the VLMY233T2V2-GS08 offers the narrowest dominant wavelength band for pure yellow, tighter IV binning consistency per reel, and validated AEC-Q101 performance - making it optimal for automotive and industrial applications demanding strict chromaticity control and long-term stability.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current for VLMY233T2V2-GS08?
The VLMY233T2V2-GS08 supports a DC forward current of 50 mA when ambient temperature is ≤ 60 °C and thermal resistance is maintained at 480 K/W via proper PCB pad design. Exceeding this limit risks accelerated lumen depreciation and junction overheating beyond the 125 °C absolute maximum.
Is VLMY233T2V2-GS08 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, VLMY233T2V2-GS08 is AEC-Q101 qualified and rated for operation from –40 °C to +100 °C, making it suitable for dashboard illumination, exterior status indicators, and under-hood control modules. Its 2 kV ESD rating and moisture sensitivity level 2a compliance further align with automotive manufacturing requirements.
What does the "T2V2" suffix mean in VLMY233T2V2-GS08?
In VLMY233T2V2-GS08, "T2V2" denotes the luminous intensity bin: "T" indicates the intensity group (355–450 mcd min–max), "2" specifies the second sub-bin within that group, and "V2" identifies the forward voltage bin (2.0–2.6 V typ–max at 20 mA). This ensures consistent optical and electrical behavior per reel.
Can VLMY233T2V2-GS08 be used in reverse-bias configuration?
No - the VLMY233T2V2-GS08 is not designed for reverse conduction. The datasheet explicitly states reverse voltage operation is suitable for short-term applications only, with absolute maximum VR = 5 V. Continuous reverse bias may cause irreversible degradation of the AlInGaP die.
What is the recommended soldering profile for VLMY233T2V2-GS08?
VLMY233T2V2-GS08 must be soldered using a lead-free reflow profile compliant with J-STD-020, with peak temperature ≤ 260 °C for ≤ 10 s, time above 217 °C ≤ 120 s, and ramp rates ≤ 3 °C/s (up) and ≤ 6 °C/s (down). Preconditioning per JEDEC Level 2a is mandatory before reflow.
