150040GS73240

Overview

The Würth Elektronik 150040GS73240 is a single-color surface-mount LED from the WL-SMCC series, designed for discrete indication. It features a green lens with a peak wavelength of 525nm and a typical forward voltage of 3.2V at a test current of 20mA. The component utilizes a compact 0402 (1005 metric) package measuring 1.00mm in length, 0.50mm in width, and 0.35mm in maximum height. It offers a viewing angle of 140 degrees and emits light with a luminous intensity of 450mcd.

Feature Summary

• Ultra-compact 0402 surface-mount form factor suitable for space-constrained designs
• High luminous intensity output for clear visual indication
• Wide 140-degree viewing angle for broad visibility
• Compatible with standard IR reflow soldering processes

Applications

• Status indication on mobile and portable electronic devices
• Switch indicator lighting for consumer electronics
• General-purpose discrete component signaling in compact circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix matches the required color and electrical characteristics, as variations exist within the WL-SMCC family. Confirm RoHS compliance status and Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) ratings prior to integration into the manufacturing process. Ensure storage conditions align with manufacturer guidelines to maintain component integrity before soldering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-brightness green indicator is required in a minimal footprint. Compare against other WL-SMCC variants if different wavelengths or intensities are needed. Consider the 3.2V forward voltage drop for circuit design calculations. Ensure the 0402 package dimensions fit within the available PCB real estate constraints.
