150120YS75000

Overview

The Würth Elektronik 150120YS75000 is a single-color surface-mount LED from the WL-SMCW series, designed for indicator applications. It emits yellow light with a peak wavelength of 595nm and a dominant wavelength of 590nm. The component features a standard configuration in a 1206 (3216 metric) package, measuring 3.20mm in length, 1.60mm in width, and a maximum height of 0.69mm. It operates at a typical forward voltage of 2V with a test current of 20mA, producing an intensity of 120mcd. The lens is colorless and water clear with a rectangular shape and flat top, offering a wide viewing angle of 140 degrees.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure correct binning and packaging format. Confirm that the requested quantity matches the available reel or cut-tape specifications. Check RoHS compliance documentation for regulatory requirements. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid manufacturer traceability. Validate that the component meets the required moisture sensitivity level standards for storage and handling.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard yellow indicator is required in a 1206 footprint. Consider the 140-degree viewing angle for applications needing wide visibility. Evaluate the 2V forward voltage drop against the system power supply constraints. Compare the 120mcd intensity against ambient lighting conditions to ensure adequate visibility. Verify compatibility with reflow soldering profiles specified in the datasheet.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Würth Elektronik WL-SMCW series of single-color chip LEDs. The series offers various colors and intensities in standardized surface-mount packages. The 1206 form factor allows for high-density PCB layouts. The WL-SMCW line is designed for reliable performance in general-purpose electronic applications requiring visual feedback.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include other color variants such as 150120GS75000 (Green) and 150120SS75000 (Red). These parts share identical mechanical dimensions and mounting characteristics. Cross-referencing electrical parameters like forward voltage and luminous intensity is necessary when selecting alternative colors.
