150060VS73220

Overview

The Würth Elektronik 150060VS73220 is a single-color green surface-mount LED from the WL-SMCC series, designed for indicator applications. It features a clear lens and operates at a typical forward voltage of 2V with a test current of 20mA. The device emits light at a peak wavelength of 575nm and a main wavelength of 573nm, providing an optical intensity of 60mcd. Packaged in a compact 0402 (1005 metric) footprint measuring 1.00mm x 0.50mm with a maximum height of 0.35mm, it offers a viewing angle of 120 degrees. The component is moisture-sensitive (MSL level 3) and complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Compact 0402 surface-mount package suitable for high-density PCB layouts
• Clear rectangular lens with flat top design for consistent light emission
• Wide 120-degree viewing angle for broad visibility
• Standard configuration optimized for general-purpose indicator use

Applications

• Status indication on electronic control boards
• Power supply status indicators
• General-purpose device signaling
• Consumer electronics front panels

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the exact wavelength and binning requirements for your application. Confirm that the 0402 package dimensions align with your board space constraints. Ensure handling procedures account for the Moisture Sensitivity Level 3 rating to prevent damage during reflow soldering. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding packaging or material updates before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile green indicator is required within strict spatial limits defined by the 0402 footprint. Consider the 2V forward voltage drop for circuit design compatibility. Evaluate the 60mcd brightness against ambient lighting conditions to ensure adequate visibility. Compare against other WL-SMCC variants if different wavelengths or higher intensities are needed for the same package size.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Würth Elektronik WL-SMCC series, which focuses on small form-factor chip LEDs. The series provides various colors and intensities in standard SMD packages like 0402 and 0603. The 150060VS73220 specifically addresses the need for green indicators in compact devices, offering a balance between size, brightness, and electrical characteristics typical of modern surface-mount technology components.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include 150040VS73220, which shares the 0402 package but differs in physical dimensions and mounting pad layout. Other color variants in the 0402 package such as red or yellow models may serve as functional replacements if wavelength differences are acceptable. Verify pinout and thermal characteristics when cross-referencing with competitor parts.
