Applications

• General-purpose indicator lighting

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation to confirm exact optical and electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with surface-mount assembly processes by checking moisture sensitivity level requirements. Confirm that the selected packaging format aligns with automated placement equipment specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 0805 footprint is required for red status indication. Consider the 1.7V forward voltage drop and 11.7mcd intensity for circuit design calculations. Verify that the 660nm peak wavelength meets visibility requirements for the intended application environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BrightChips series from Visual Communications Company, which focuses on high-reliability surface-mount LEDs. The 7012X1 represents a standard single-color variant within this lineup, offering a balance of size and performance for space-constrained electronic designs requiring visible red signaling.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official manufacturer cross-reference lists for verified substitutes. Ensure any replacement matches the 0805 package dimensions and electrical parameters exactly to maintain board compatibility.
