150120GS87000

Overview

The Würth Elektronik 150120GS87000 is a surface-mount monochromatic green LED from the WL-SMCW series. It features a 1206 (3216 Metric) package with dimensions of 3.20mm length, 1.60mm width, and a maximum height of 0.78mm. The device emits light at a peak wavelength of 525nm with a typical forward voltage of 3.3V. It offers a luminous intensity of 700mcd and a viewing angle of 40 degrees. The component utilizes a water-clear, circular lens and is designed for through-hole or surface mount applications, operating within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Water-clear circular lens design for consistent optical transmission
• RoHS compliant construction suitable for environmentally sensitive applications
• High luminous intensity output in a compact 1206 footprint

Applications

• General purpose status indication on electronic circuit boards
• Panel-mounted indicator lights for equipment front panels
• Visual signaling in consumer electronics devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix GS against the official datasheet to confirm the 525nm green wavelength and 3.3V forward voltage characteristics. Ensure that the ordering code matches the required packaging format, such as cut tape or reel, as specified by the manufacturer's current production documentation. Cross-reference the part number with the latest RoHS compliance certificates to ensure adherence to environmental regulations applicable in your region.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard green indicator is required in a 1206 SMD form factor. The 40-degree viewing angle provides focused visibility compared to wider beam LEDs. Consider the 3.3V forward voltage drop when designing the current-limiting resistor network. The water-clear lens ensures maximum brightness output, making it suitable for applications requiring high visibility under various lighting conditions.

Part Context

This LED belongs to the WL-SMCW series, which represents Würth Elektronik's line of surface-mount mono-color chip LEDs. The series is characterized by its lead-free construction and compliance with international environmental standards. The 1206 package size allows for automated assembly processes, integrating seamlessly into modern PCB manufacturing workflows for mass-produced electronic goods.
