150060VS55040

Overview

The Würth Elektronik 150060VS55040 is a single-color green surface-mount LED from the WL-SMCD series. It features a 0603 (1608 metric) package with dimensions of 1.6 mm length, 0.8 mm width, and 0.5 mm height. The device emits green light at a peak wavelength of 573 nm with a viewing angle of 140 degrees. Typical forward voltage is 2.4 V at a test current of 20 mA, producing an optical intensity of 100 mcd. The lens is diffused for wide-angle visibility.

Feature Summary

• Diffused lens design provides a wide 140-degree viewing angle for enhanced visibility.
• Compact 0603 SMD footprint suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts.
• Green emission optimized for standard indicator applications.

Applications

• Embedded electronics status indication
• Industrial equipment panel indicators
• Consumer appliance control interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version when sourcing, as manufacturing parameters may evolve. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the supplier or authorized distributors prior to integration. Ensure storage conditions meet humidity sensitivity requirements to maintain component reliability during assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a standard green indicator in a compact form factor. The 140-degree viewing angle makes it suitable for front-panel displays where direct line-of-sight is not guaranteed. Compare forward voltage characteristics against available drive voltages to ensure proper circuit biasing without excessive current limiting.

Part Context

This part belongs to the WL-SMCD series of monochromatic chip LEDs manufactured by Würth Elektronik. These components are designed for general-purpose indication tasks. The series offers various color options within the same standardized 0603 package dimensions, allowing for consistent board layout across different product variants.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 0603 green LEDs such as the 150060BS55040 if different lens treatments are required. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substituting with generic equivalents to ensure electrical performance matches the original design specifications.
