Overview
The Bivar Inc. 5BC-3-CA is a 5mm through-hole bi-color LED indicator featuring red and green emission colors. It utilizes a clear, non-tinted diffused lens to provide visibility across a 40-degree viewing angle. The component operates with a forward current of 20 mA and exhibits forward voltages of 2 V for the red section and 2.1 V for the green section. Emission wavelengths are specified at 625 nm for red and 568 nm for green, with an optical intensity of 35 mcd. Designed for press-fit installation, it accommodates a 6.35 mm mounting hole.
Feature Summary
- Bi-color configuration combining red and green LEDs within a single 5mm radial package
- Clear diffused lens design ensuring broad 40-degree visibility
- Through-hole construction with straight leads for standard PCB integration
Applications
- Panel mount status indicators
- PCB board activity signaling
- Electronic device front panel displays
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Bivar documentation to confirm exact electrical characteristics and lens type. Ensure compatibility with existing panel cutouts measuring 6.35 mm. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the manufacturer datasheet before procurement. Cross-reference the Mouser number 749-pm5r3-bc if sourcing through that distributor, but validate the part number matches the intended technical requirements.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a dual-color indication is required in a compact 5mm form factor. The 20 mA forward current rating suits standard logic-level driving circuits. Consider the 40-degree viewing angle for applications requiring moderate directional visibility. The press-fit style requires appropriate PCB hole sizing and mechanical support during assembly.
Part Context
This part belongs to Bivar's discrete LED indication series, designed for general-purpose electronic signaling. It serves as a visual feedback element in various consumer and industrial electronics. The 5mm diameter allows for dense PCB layouts while maintaining adequate light output for user interface applications.
Replacement Considerations
Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify direct replacements only through official Bivar cross-reference tools or authorized distributor databases.
