150120SS75000

Overview

The Würth Elektronik 150120SS75000 is a single-color red LED from the WL-SMCW series, designed for surface-mount technology in a 1206 (3216 metric) package. It emits light at a peak wavelength of 645 nm with a dominant wavelength of 630 nm. The component features a typical forward voltage of 1.9 V and a luminous intensity of 60 mcd when driven at a test current of 20 mA. It has a rectangular lens with water-clear transparency and a viewing angle of 140 degrees.

Feature Summary

• Provides standard red illumination with high visibility due to a wide 140-degree viewing angle.
• Features a compact 1206 surface-mount footprint suitable for space-constrained circuit board layouts.
• Utilizes a water-clear lens to ensure optimal light transmission and color purity.

Applications

• Status indication on electronic equipment panels
• Backlighting for control buttons and switches
• Visual signaling in consumer appliances

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm exact optical and electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment regarding the 1206 package dimensions. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation before integration into regulated products.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard red indicator is required in a 1206 form factor. Consider the 1.9 V forward voltage drop for power budget calculations. Evaluate the 60 mcd intensity against ambient lighting conditions to ensure adequate visibility for the intended application environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the WL-SMCW series of chip LEDs manufactured by Würth Elektronik. The series offers various colors and intensities in standardized SMD packages. The 150120SS75000 specifically addresses the need for reliable red signaling components in modern electronics manufacturing.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the manufacturer's cross-reference data or equivalent product lists for verified substitutes. Ensure any replacement matches the 1206 package size, pin configuration, and electrical ratings to maintain design integrity.
