LG R971-KN-1-0-20-R18
Overview
The LG R971-KN-1-0-20-R18 is a green surface-mount LED in a compact 0805 (2012 metric) package. Utilizing Chip LED technology with a white diffused lens, it provides a wide viewing angle of 160 degrees for consistent visibility. This 570nm wavelength device is designed for low-power indication and status signaling in space-constrained embedded systems.
Why Choose This Part
This LED features a low-profile height of 0.90mm and high corrosion robustness (Class 3B), making it reliable in challenging environments. It includes built-in ESD protection up to 2 kV according to HBM standards, reducing the need for external protection components. The 160-degree viewing angle ensures excellent off-axis visibility for user interface applications.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Integrate this component into your PCB design using standard 0805 footprints with a current-limiting resistor based on the 2.2V forward voltage. Ensure the cathode marking is correctly oriented on the silkscreen to prevent reverse-bias conditions during assembly. The surface-mount package is compatible with standard automated pick-and-place and reflow soldering processes.
