Product details
Overview
VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a yellow-green AlInGaP/GaAs low-current SMD LED in PLCC-2 package, delivering 3.55–9.00 mcd luminous intensity at 2 mA, with dominant wavelength 566–575 nm and forward voltage 1.9–2.2 V. It serves as an indicator/backlight source in automotive dashboards, telecom equipment, and LCD interfaces where precise color consistency and low-power visibility are required.
For engineers reviewing the VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 datasheet, VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 pinout, VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 application, or VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 equivalent, this page provides verified optical-electrical specs, AEC-Q101 qualification status, PLCC-2 footprint dimensions, luminous intensity binning (Group K), and compatibility with IR reflow per J-STD-020.
Technical Context
This device uses AlInGaP/GaAs heterojunction technology to achieve high-efficiency yellow-green emission with narrow dominant wavelength tolerance (±3 nm within Group 8). Its non-diffused lens enables directional light output with ±60° half-intensity angle, optimized for coupling into light pipes and backlighting films.
The PLCC-2 package features a white thermoplastic body with embedded lead frame and clear epoxy-filled reflector cavity, supporting JEDEC Level 2a preconditioning and >2 kV ESD withstand voltage. Thermal resistance junction-to-ambient is 400 K/W when mounted on ≥16 mm² PCB pad.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity | 3.55–9.00 mcd at 2 mA - defines visible brightness range for indicator use under standard test pulse |
| Dominant wavelength | 566–575 nm - ensures consistent yellow-green chromaticity across Group 8 binning |
| Forward voltage | 1.9–2.2 V at 2 mA - enables direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V logic with minimal series resistance |
| Viewing angle | ±60° half-intensity - provides wide but controlled dispersion suitable for front-panel indicators |
| Absolute max forward current | 20 mA - sets safe DC operating limit; surge rating 200 mA for ≤10 μs pulses |
| Junction temperature | 125 °C - supports operation in automotive under-hood and dashboard environments |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Yes - validated for automotive electronics reliability including temperature cycling and humidity testing |
Pinout & Package
The VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 uses a surface-mount PLCC-2 package with 2 terminals: anode and cathode. The package measures 3.5 mm × 2.8 mm × 1.9 mm (L×W×H) with 1.75 mm lead pitch and non-diffused lens. Mounting requires 4 mm × 4 mm solder pad layout with 1.2 mm solder resist opening.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (A) | Positive LED terminal | Connected to current source; polarity must be observed to avoid reverse breakdown (max VR = 5 V) |
| Cathode (K) | Negative LED terminal | Connected to ground or current sink; marking dot on package identifies cathode side |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Luminous intensity ratio IVmax/IVmin ≤ 1.6 | Ensures uniform brightness across LEDs on same reel - critical for consistent panel illumination |
| Non-diffused lens | Enables efficient coupling into light guides and edge-lit LCD backlights without scattering loss |
| JEDEC Level 2a preconditioning | Guarantees moisture sensitivity level compliance for Pb-free reflow without baking under standard factory conditions |
| ESD withstand voltage > 2 kV | Reduces handling risk during automated placement and board assembly in high-throughput lines |
| Low profile (1.9 mm height) | Allows integration into space-constrained front panels and slim display bezels |
Applications
| Automotive Dashboard Backlighting | Telecom Indicator Lighting |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Illuminating segmented symbols and icons on instrument cluster PCBs in passenger vehicles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete visual indicator emitting stable yellow-green light under variable ambient temperatures (−40 to +100 °C).

Use Scenario: Power-on, mute, and input-select indicators on AV receivers and streaming devices. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-brightness discrete LED with tight wavelength binning for brand-consistent color identity. Use Value: Group 8 wavelength bin (572–575 nm) delivers saturated yellow-green matching UI design specs; non-diffused lens prevents halo effects. |
Use Scenario: Edge-lit backlight for monochrome LCD symbols on printers, scanners, and copiers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Directional light source coupled to acrylic light guide with minimal optical loss. Use Value: ±60° half-intensity angle aligns with light pipe acceptance angle; 400 K/W RthJA allows thermal stability at 20 mA continuous drive. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-current yellow-green SMD LED applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMYG30H2K1-GS01 | Same optical specs and PLCC-2 package, but shipped in 1000-piece GS01 tape (vs. 1500-piece GS08) | Lower reel quantity suits low-volume prototyping or replacement spares | Select GS01 when smaller batch sizes or shorter lead times are prioritized over cost-per-unit |
| TLR4401F | Yellow-green InGaN LED; 570–575 nm λd, 4.5–10 mcd at 2 mA, same PLCC-2 footprint but higher VF (2.4–2.8 V) | Higher forward voltage requires revised current-limiting resistor; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Choose TLR4401F only for non-automotive applications where tighter wavelength control is secondary to raw intensity |
Compared with VLMYG30H2K1-GS08, the GS01 variant offers identical performance in smaller reels, while TLR4401F trades AEC-Q101 compliance and lower VF for marginally higher intensity - making VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 the preferred choice for automotive and industrial designs requiring long-term reliability and thermal stability.

Is VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 is fully compatible with Pb-free reflow per J-STD-020B, supporting peak temperatures up to 260 °C for ≤30 s. Its JEDEC Level 2a preconditioning and moisture-sensitive packaging require adherence to dry storage protocols after bag opening to prevent popcorning during reflow.
What does the "GS08" suffix indicate in VLMYG30H2K1-GS08?
The "GS08" suffix denotes Vishay's standard 8 mm antistatic blister tape packaging containing 1500 pieces per reel. This format is optimized for high-speed pick-and-place machines and complies with DIN IEC 40 (CO) 564. The GS08 reel dimensions are 180 mm outer diameter, 63.5 mm core diameter, and 14.4 mm maximum width.
Does VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 have AEC-Q101 qualification?
Yes, VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed in the official Vishay datasheet (Rev. 1.8, Sep 2022). This qualification covers stress tests including temperature cycling, high-temperature operating life, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing - validating suitability for automotive electronic modules.
What is the dominant wavelength range for VLMYG30H2K1-GS08?
The VLMYG30H2K1-GS08 has a dominant wavelength range of 566–575 nm, binned into Group 8 (572–575 nm) per the datasheet's color classification table. This narrow band ensures consistent yellow-green hue across production lots, critical for brand-aligned UI lighting in consumer and automotive applications.
