Overview

The APT2012EC is a High Efficiency Red surface-mount LED in a standard 0805 (2012 metric) package. This GaAsP/GaP-based indicator features a water clear lens and provides a wide 120-degree viewing angle for broad visibility. It is designed for low power consumption and reliable performance in standard status indication and backlighting roles.

Why Choose This Part

The 0.75mm low-profile design allows for integration into slim assemblies, while the 120-degree viewing angle ensures excellent visibility from off-axis positions. Its halogen-free and RoHS compliant construction meets modern environmental standards for global consumer electronics.

Applications

Status Indicators
Providing visual feedback for power states or error conditions on printed circuit boards.
Backlighting
Illuminating icons and LCD panels in home appliances and smart devices.
Portable Electronics
Integration into compact wearable and healthcare devices where space is limited and power efficiency is critical.
