3UWD2.555N

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The 3UWD2.555N is a through-hole, single-color LED indicator manufactured by Bivar Inc. It emits neutral white light with a wavelength characteristic of white LEDs and features a round lens with a domed top for optimized light distribution. The component operates at a forward voltage of 3.2V and delivers a luminous intensity of 1500 mcd. Designed for standard radial lead configurations, it provides reliable visual indication in electronic assemblies requiring high-brightness white output.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• High-intensity neutral white light emission suitable for clear visibility
• Round lens with a domed top design for enhanced light dispersion
• Through-hole mounting configuration for secure PCB integration

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Electronic equipment status indicators
• Power supply unit signal lights
• Control panel illumination

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the part status as obsolete before procurement planning. Confirm compatibility with existing through-hole assembly processes. Ensure that the 3.2V forward voltage aligns with current circuit designs. Check for available replacement components if production continuity is required.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a bright, neutral white indication is necessary for panel or board-level signaling. The 1500 mcd rating ensures visibility in various lighting conditions. The through-hole format supports robust mechanical attachment. Consider the domed lens shape for wider viewing angles compared to flat lenses.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This discrete LED belongs to Bivar’s line of through-hole indicator lamps. It is designed for general-purpose visual signaling in consumer and industrial electronics. The neutral white color offers a modern aesthetic distinct from traditional red or green indicators. The component integrates standard radial leads for easy insertion into printed circuit boards.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

As the part status is listed as obsolete, direct substitutes should be identified based on matching electrical parameters and mechanical dimensions. Verify equivalent luminous intensity and forward voltage ratings when selecting alternative white LEDs.
