3YT5V-S

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The Bivar Inc. 3YT5V-S is a single-color yellow LED designed for through-hole mounting in the T-1 (3 mm) package format. It features a clear dome lens and emits light at a peak wavelength of 590 nm. The component has a forward voltage of 2 V and a rated power of 85 mW. It operates with a forward current of 20 mA and provides an optical intensity of 40 mcd.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Through-hole installation in a standard T-1 (3 mm) package
• Clear dome lens configuration for focused emission
• Yellow spectral output centered at 590 nm

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Panel indicator lights
• Equipment status signaling
• Control board visual feedback

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance details and confirm lead times directly with authorized distributors, as availability may vary. Ensure the specific ordering suffix matches the required lens type and electrical characteristics to avoid functional mismatches during integration.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 3 mm through-hole yellow LED is required. Consider the 2 V forward voltage drop and 20 mA operating current for circuit design. Verify that the 40 mcd intensity meets visibility requirements for the intended application environment.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Bivar's single-color LED indication series, which focuses on providing reliable visual signals for electronic equipment. The T-1 form factor ensures compatibility with standard PCB layouts and panel cutouts commonly used in industrial and consumer electronics manufacturing.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

The 3YT-F is a parameter-equivalent alternative within the same manufacturer lineup. Both parts share the T-1 package, yellow color, and similar electrical specifications, allowing for potential substitution if supply constraints exist.
