Overview

The APG1608ZGC is a high-efficiency green LED in a standard 0603 (1608 Metric) surface-mount package. Utilizing InGaN technology, it delivers a typical dominant wavelength of 525nm and features an ultra-low profile height of only 0.28mm, making it ideal for space-constrained designs.

Why Choose This Part

This LED features a wide 130-degree viewing angle for excellent visibility from off-axis positions. Its ultra-thin 0.28mm height allows for mounting in tight mechanical envelopes where standard 0603 LEDs would be too tall.

Applications

LCD Backlighting
Providing uniform illumination for small display panels in handheld devices.
Status Indication
Visual feedback for power, connectivity, or error states in compact consumer electronics.
Wearable Technology
Integration into smartwatches and fitness trackers where Z-height is a critical design constraint.
Smart Home Appliances
Control panel indicators for thermostats, security hubs, and white goods.

Getting Started

When designing the PCB, ensure the footprint accommodates the 1.6mm x 0.8mm dimensions and utilize a current-limiting resistor calculated for a 20mA test current and approximately 3.3V forward voltage. This component is compatible with standard automated SMT placement and reflow soldering processes.
