Yellow 588nm LED Indication - Discrete 2.1V 0805 (2012 Metric)
Active201,373 in stock
Overview
The LTST-C171YKT is a yellow surface-mount LED in a standard 0805 (2012 Metric) chip package. It provides a luminous intensity optimized for status indication at a 20mA test current with a wide 130-degree viewing angle.
Why Choose This Part
This LED features a super-thin 0.8mm height profile, making it suitable for compact electronics. It is fully compatible with automatic placement equipment and standard infrared reflow soldering processes.
Applications
Status Indicators
Visual feedback for power rails, logic levels, or system fault states on PCBs.
LCD Backlighting
Small-scale backlighting for buttons, switches, or small character displays.
Handheld Devices
Low-profile indicator for battery-powered electronics where height is restricted to 0.8mm.
