3SBC

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The Bivar Inc. 3SBC is a through-hole bi-color LED indicator housed in a standard 3mm (T1) radial package. It features super red and green emission colors with a white diffused lens. The component utilizes GaAlAs/GaAs and GaP/GaP semiconductor materials for its dual-color functionality. It is designed for panel or PCB mounting applications requiring discrete visual status indication.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Bi-color configuration combining super red and green emissions within a single 3mm package
• White diffused lens design for uniform light distribution
• Standard T1 radial lead frame construction for through-hole integration

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Panel mount status indicators
• PCB mounted discrete signal lights
• Equipment front panel visualization

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation, such as 'F' for flange style, against project requirements to ensure mechanical compatibility. Confirm RoHS compliance status and material composition details via the official manufacturer datasheet before finalizing procurement specifications.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 3mm form factor is required for dual-color signaling. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the forward voltage characteristics of both the red and green segments. Verify that the white diffused lens output meets the visibility requirements of the intended application environment.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

The 3SBC belongs to Bivar's line of discrete LED indicators, specifically utilizing the industry-standard 3mm (T1) package format. This series provides reliable bi-color options for engineers needing distinct visual feedback in space-constrained designs without sacrificing luminous clarity.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference models must match the 3mm radial footprint and bi-color red/green spectral output. Verify pinout compatibility and forward voltage ratings to ensure direct substitution in existing assemblies.
