For engineers reviewing the VLMY335U1V2-GS08 datasheet, VLMY335U1V2-GS08 pinout, VLMY335U1V2-GS08 application, or VLMY335U1V2-GS08 equivalent, this page provides verified optical, electrical, thermal, and packaging data aligned to Vishay Document 84911 Rev. 1.4 - including AEC-Q101 qualification, ±60° viewing angle, 400 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, and JEDEC level 2a moisture sensitivity handling.
Technical Context
The VLMY335U1V2-GS08 is a monolithic AlInGaP-on-Si power SMD LED optimized for stable chromaticity and intensity across temperature. Its PLCC-2 white thermoplastic package integrates a reflective cavity filled with clear epoxy, enabling uniform angular distribution and high thermal dissipation capability.
Designed for reflow, vapor-phase, and wave soldering per CECC 00802 and J-STD-020, it supports 20 mA nominal operation with peak permissible forward current of 50 mA at ambient ≤73 °C. Reverse voltage rating is limited to 5 V for short-term applications only.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar yellow LED applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMY335U1V2-GS18 | Same optical/electrical specs; differs only in tape quantity (8000 pcs/reel vs. 7500 pcs in GS08) | No functional difference; selected when higher reel volume aligns with production planning | Choose GS18 for large-batch manufacturing where reel change frequency must be minimized |
| VLMO335U2AA-GS08 | Soft orange emission (600–611 nm), 560–1400 mcd intensity, identical PLCC-2 package and thermal specs | Used where warmer hue improves perceived contrast against dark backgrounds or metal housings | Select when colorimetric shift toward orange enhances user interface recognition without altering board layout |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current for VLMY335U1V2-GS08?
The VLMY335U1V2-GS08 supports a maximum continuous forward current of 50 mA when mounted on a PCB with thermal pad area exceeding 16 mm² and ambient temperature ≤73 °C. At higher temperatures, derating applies per Figure 1 in Vishay Document 84911. Exceeding 50 mA risks accelerated lumen depreciation and junction overheating beyond the 125 °C limit.
Is VLMY335U1V2-GS08 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, VLMY335U1V2-GS08 is AEC-Q101 qualified and rated for operation from -40 to +100 °C ambient, making it suitable for dashboard illumination, center console indicators, and exterior status lights in passenger vehicles. Its 400 K/W thermal resistance and moisture sensitivity level 2a compliance align with automotive manufacturing and field reliability requirements.
What does the "U1V2" suffix indicate in VLMY335U1V2-GS08?
In VLMY335U1V2-GS08, "U1" denotes luminous intensity bin U (450–560 mcd) and "V2" specifies dominant wavelength bin V (589–592 nm) per Vishay's internal classification tables. This ensures consistent brightness and chromaticity across all units shipped on the same reel, eliminating mixing of multiple bins per packaging unit.
Can VLMY335U1V2-GS08 be soldered using wave soldering?
Yes, VLMY335U1V2-GS08 is qualified for wave soldering per CECC 00802, with peak lead temperature limited to 235–260 °C and first-wave dwell time ≤5 s. The PLCC-2 package's white thermoplastic body and clear epoxy fill maintain structural integrity under these conditions, provided preconditioning per JEDEC level 2a is observed prior to processing.
What is the viewing angle specification for VLMY335U1V2-GS08?
VLMY335U1V2-GS08 has an angle of half intensity of ±60°, meaning luminous intensity drops to 50 % of its axial value at 60° off-center in both horizontal and vertical planes. This wide viewing cone supports uniform illumination across angled or recessed mounting configurations common in control panels and appliance fascias.
