5988520207F

Overview

The Dialight 5988520207F is a dual-color surface-mount LED featuring independent green and red emitters in a 1208 package. It emits green light at 568 nm and red light at 625 nm, with respective luminous intensities of 40 mcd and 110 mcd. The device operates at a forward current of 20 mA for both colors, with a typical forward voltage of 2 V per emitter. It offers a wide viewing angle of 160 degrees and utilizes a clear, colorless rectangular lens with a domed top.

Feature Summary

• Dual-color configuration with independent green and red LEDs within a single SMD package
• High visibility provided by a 160-degree viewing angle and water-clear lens
• Standardized electrical characteristics with identical forward voltage and current requirements for both channels

Applications

• Status indication on electronic circuit boards
• Panel-mounted indicator lights requiring distinct color coding
• Visual signaling in consumer electronics devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix to confirm the exact binning and packaging configuration intended for your assembly line. Confirm moisture sensitivity level (MSL) handling requirements prior to soldering. Ensure the footprint matches the 1208 SMD dimensions and right-angle orientation specified in the datasheet. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space-constrained designs require two distinct status colors in a single footprint. The 160-degree viewing angle ensures broad visibility compared to narrower beam alternatives. Consider the 2V forward voltage drop for power supply design. This part is suitable for applications needing simultaneous or alternating red/green signaling without increasing board real estate.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Dialight 598 series of surface-mount LEDs. It is designed for high-reliability applications requiring compact form factors. The 1208 package size provides a balance between optical output and PCB space efficiency. It is commonly used alongside other single-color variants from the same series for consistent aesthetic and electrical performance across a product line.

Replacement Considerations

The 5988520217F is listed as a parameter-equivalent substitute. Verify mechanical compatibility and optical intensity matching before substitution. Other similar packages may differ in viewing angle or forward voltage, requiring circuit adjustment.
