12-21/GHC-YR2S2/2C

Overview

The Everlight 12-21/GHC-YR2S2/2C is a single-color green surface-mount LED featuring an InGaN chip and a right-angle lens design. It emits brilliant green light at a peak wavelength of 525 nm with a viewing angle of 40 degrees. The component operates at a forward current of 20 mA, delivering a typical luminous intensity of 140 mcd. It utilizes a water-clear lens for optimal light transmission and is packaged on an 8mm tape reel for automated assembly.

Feature Summary

• Right-angle lens configuration for directional light emission
• Water-clear lens material for high transparency
• Compatible with automatic placement equipment

Applications

• Indicator lighting in electronic devices
• Panel status indication
• Automated optical inspection systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct package type and bin selection. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation before integration. Check for moisture sensitivity levels if storage conditions are critical. Ensure the right-angle orientation matches the mechanical design requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a directional green indicator is required in compact designs. The right-angle profile suits applications where space constraints prevent top-down mounting. Verify that the 20 mA forward current aligns with the system's power budget. Consider the 40-degree viewing angle for visibility requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to Everlight's standard SMD LED series, designed for general-purpose indication. It shares the 12-21 form factor family but differs in color and lens geometry. The product line emphasizes compatibility with standard reflow soldering processes.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 12-21SYGC/S530 from the same manufacturer. Cross-reference pinout and luminous intensity specifications before substitution. Verify that the replacement part maintains the right-angle lens requirement.
