Overview

The SML-LX0805USBC-TR is a surface-mount Super Blue LED in a standard 0805 (2012 metric) package. It features a peak wavelength of 470nm and provides a typical luminous intensity of 25mcd at a 20mA drive current.

Why Choose This Part

This LED features a low profile 0.46mm height, making it ideal for space-constrained designs. It offers a clear lens for high light output and is compatible with standard automated pick-and-place assembly processes.

Applications

Status Indication
Visual feedback for power rails or logic states on PCB assemblies.
LCD Backlighting
Providing uniform blue illumination for small character or graphic displays.
User Interface Panel
Illuminating buttons, icons, or light pipes in consumer and industrial electronics.

Getting Started

Ensure a current-limiting resistor is used in series to maintain the 20mA operating current, accounting for the 3.3V to 3.7V forward voltage drop. Follow standard reflow soldering profiles for SMD LEDs to avoid thermal damage to the clear lens.
