23-21/R6C-AM1N2AY/2A

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The 23-21/R6C-AM1N2AY/2A is a single-color surface-mount LED manufactured by Everlight Electronics Co Ltd. It utilizes a reverse package chip design within a 0603 (1608 metric) footprint, measuring 1.60mm in length and 0.80mm in width with a maximum height of 0.8mm. The component emits red light with a peak wavelength of 632nm and a dominant wavelength of 626nm. It features a water-clear rectangular lens with a flat top and offers a viewing angle of 130 degrees. Typical forward voltage is 1.95V at a test current of 5mA, producing an intensity of 31.5mcd.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Reverse package chip construction for compact board integration
• Water-clear rectangular lens with flat top geometry
• Compatible with automatic placement equipment
• Supports infrared and vapor phase reflow soldering processes

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Indicator lights for consumer electronics
• Status indication on printed circuit boards
• Panel illumination for control interfaces

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against the manufacturer datasheet to ensure correct optical and electrical characteristics. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free packaging requirements prior to ordering. Check availability constraints as supply levels may vary by region. Ensure storage conditions meet moisture sensitivity level requirements for surface mount devices.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile red indicator is required for high-density surface mount assemblies. The reverse package design facilitates smaller board sizes and higher packing density compared to traditional lead frame types. Consider the 130-degree viewing angle and 31.5mcd intensity for visibility requirements in standard ambient lighting conditions.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Everlight's 0603 Package Chip LED series, designed for general-purpose indication applications. The 23-21 series specifically features reverse package technology, allowing for reduced component height and improved thermal management relative to standard SMD LEDs. It is part of a broader family of mono-color LEDs offering various wavelengths and intensities.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 0603 red SMD LEDs from Everlight such as the 19-21 series or similar reverse package variants. Verify that replacement parts match the 626nm dominant wavelength and 1.95V forward voltage specifications to maintain circuit compatibility.
