APHB1608CGKSURKC
Overview
The APHB1608CGKSURKC is a dual-color surface-mount LED featuring Green (570nm) and Hyper Red (630nm) emitters within a compact 0603 (1608 Metric) footprint. This bi-color indicator uses AlGaInP technology and a colorless clear lens to provide a wide 130-degree viewing angle for status signaling. Its low profile height of 0.65mm makes it suitable for space-constrained electronics requiring multi-state visual feedback.
Why Choose This Part
The component integrates two independent emitters into a single 1.6mm x 0.8mm package, significantly reducing PCB real estate compared to discrete single-color LEDs. With a wide 130-degree viewing angle and low typical forward voltages of 1.95V (Red) and 2.1V (Green), it offers consistent visibility and compatibility with standard 3.3V logic levels using appropriate current-limiting resistors.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
When designing the PCB, ensure proper orientation as the Red and Green cathodes are independent. Calculate current-limiting resistors based on a test current of 20mA per channel, ensuring the DC forward current does not exceed 30mA. The part is rated for MSL 3 and is compatible with standard automated reflow soldering processes.
