It serves as a high-brightness indicator or backlight source in automotive dashboards, office equipment, and LCD interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 datasheet, VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 pinout, VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 application, or VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 equivalent, key selection criteria include luminous intensity binning (Q-group), ±60° viewing angle, AEC-Q101 qualification, JEDEC level 2a moisture sensitivity, and compatibility with IR reflow per J-STD-020.
Technical Context
This AlInGaP-on-GaAs LED operates at 30 mA DC forward current with thermal resistance junction-to-ambient of 400 K/W when mounted on a PCB pad >16 mm². Its non-diffused lens enables efficient coupling to light pipes and flat backlighting structures.
The device exhibits a temperature coefficient of forward voltage of −4 mV/K and luminous intensity drift of −0.04 %/K, supporting stable optical output across −40 °C to +100 °C operating range. Spectral bandwidth is 18 nm at 50% relative intensity.
Key Specifications

Applications
| Automotive Dashboard Backlighting | Office Equipment Status Indicators |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Illuminating segmented symbols and warning icons on vehicle instrument clusters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Light-emitting component driven by constant-current LED driver ICs. Use Value: High luminous intensity (90 mcd typ.) ensures visibility under direct sunlight; ±60° viewing angle covers full driver field-of-view. |
Use Scenario: Power-on, error, and activity status indication on printers, scanners, and multifunction devices. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete optical output element controlled via microcontroller GPIO or dedicated LED driver. Use Value: Yellow-green chromaticity (570 nm typ.) offers superior contrast against black/gray PCB backgrounds and plastic housings. |
| LCD Panel Symbol Backlighting | Telecom Device Keypad Illumination |
Use Scenario: Edge-lit backlighting for small monochrome LCDs in industrial HMIs and test equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary light source coupled to light pipe or diffuser film. Use Value: Non-diffused lens and narrow spectral bandwidth (18 nm) maximize coupling efficiency into light-guiding structures. |
Use Scenario: Uniform keypad illumination in cordless phones and fax machines requiring low-power visible feedback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Constant-current driven discrete emitter placed beneath translucent keycaps. Use Value: Low forward voltage (2.0 V typ.) reduces power dissipation in battery-powered systems; AEC-Q101 qualification supports extended product lifecycle. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED indicator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLMPG33N1P2-GS08 | Pure green color (555–565 nm), lower luminous intensity (28–71 mcd), same PLCC-2 package and drive conditions | Better suited for applications requiring higher color purity and lower brightness tolerance | Select when spectral distinction from yellow-green is critical, e.g., multi-color status coding |
| OSRAM LGT676 | Same yellow-green bin (566–577 nm), comparable luminous intensity (90 mcd typ.), identical PLCC-2 footprint but different thermal resistance (RthJA = 350 K/W) | Higher thermal efficiency allows marginally higher continuous current in constrained layouts | Choose when board-level thermal management is prioritized over vendor consolidation |
Compared with VLMPG33N1P2-GS08 and OSRAM LGT676, the VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 delivers the highest luminous intensity in its color group (Q-bin), making it optimal for applications demanding maximum visibility at minimal drive current, while maintaining AEC-Q101 compliance and JEDEC level 2a handling requirements.

FAQ
What is the luminous intensity range of VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 at 30 mA?
The VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 delivers a luminous intensity range of 45–112 mcd at 30 mA forward current, corresponding to Q-group binning per Vishay's classification table. This range reflects factory-tested values under standardized pulse conditions (25 ms, ±11% accuracy), ensuring predictable brightness for visual interface design.
Is VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed stress tests for temperature cycling, humidity, mechanical shock, and ESD required for automotive electronic components. This qualification supports use in dashboard backlighting, switch illumination, and other under-hood or cabin-mounted systems.
What is the maximum allowable forward current for VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08?
The absolute maximum DC forward current for VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 is 50 mA at ambient temperatures ≤ 73 °C. Above this temperature, current must be derated per the typical forward current vs. ambient temperature curve in the datasheet to maintain junction temperature ≤ 125 °C.
Does VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 require special handling due to moisture sensitivity?
Yes, VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 is classified JEDEC level 2a and shipped in dry-packed aluminum bags with humidity indicator cards. After opening, it must be mounted within 672 hours at <30 °C / 60% RH or stored at <10% RH; otherwise, baking per J-STD-020 is required prior to reflow.
What is the viewing angle specification for VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08?
The VLMYG33P1Q2-GS08 has an angle of half intensity of ±60°, meaning luminous intensity drops to 50% of peak value at 60° off-axis in both horizontal and vertical directions. This wide viewing angle ensures uniform illumination across broad surface areas like control panels and keypads.
