3YD-F

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The Bivar Inc. 3YD-F is a yellow diffused LED indicator designed for discrete optoelectronic applications. It features a T-1 (3mm) through-hole package with a flanged lens and a 35-degree viewing angle. The component operates at a forward voltage of 2V DC and emits light at a wavelength of 590nm. Its luminous intensity is rated at 20mcd, suitable for status signaling and panel lighting in general electronic equipment.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Yellow diffused lens design for broad visibility
• Through-hole mounting configuration with flanged body
• Standard T-1 3mm form factor

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Status signaling in electronic devices
• Panel lights and indicators
• General electronic indication

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status and datasheet availability through authorized distributors. Confirm that the ordering suffix corresponds to the specific lens type and lead configuration required. Ensure the component meets the thermal and electrical specifications for the intended circuit design before finalizing procurement.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 3mm yellow LED with a diffused lens is required for visual indication. The 2V forward voltage and 20mcd intensity are suitable for low-power indicator circuits. Consider the 35-degree viewing angle for optimal visibility in the assembly orientation.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the Bivar Inc. discrete optoelectronics family, specifically within their LED indicator line. The 3YD-F designation identifies the specific color, lens style, and package dimensions. It is distinct from other Bivar LED variants that may differ in wavelength, intensity, or physical housing shape.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Substitute parts must match the 3mm T-1 through-hole package, yellow color, and similar electrical characteristics. Verify that alternative LEDs provide comparable luminous intensity and viewing angles to ensure consistent visual performance in the application.
