APT1608CGCK
Overview
The APT1608CGCK is a green surface-mount LED in a standard 1608 (0603) package. It utilizes AlGaInP on GaAs substrate technology to produce a 570nm dominant wavelength with a water clear lens for efficient point-source light emission.
Why Choose This Part
This LED features a wide 120-degree viewing angle and low power consumption, operating at a typical forward voltage between 1.8V and 2.4V. Its industry-standard 0603 footprint and 0.75mm low-profile height make it ideal for space-constrained surface-mount assemblies.
Applications
Getting Started
When designing the PCB, ensure a current-limiting resistor is calculated based on the 2.1V typical forward voltage to target a standard 20mA operating current. Follow standard SMD reflow profiles and note the polarity markings on the bottom of the package for correct automated placement.
