AA3020ASYCK

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The AA3020ASYCK is a single-color surface-mount LED from Kingbright, featuring a super bright yellow emission. It utilizes DH InGaAlP technology on a GaAs substrate and operates at a peak wavelength of 590 nm. The component has a water-clear lens with a 120-degree viewing angle and a nominal luminous intensity of 120 mcd. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward current of 30 mA and a typical forward voltage of 2 V. The package dimensions are 3.0 mm x 2.0 mm with a height of approximately 1.4 mm. It supports an operating temperature range from -40 °C to 85 °C and is RoHS compliant.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Super bright yellow light output using DH InGaAlP on GaAs substrate
• Compact 3.0mm x 2.0mm surface mount footprint for space-constrained designs
• Water-clear lens provides a wide 120-degree viewing angle
• RoHS compliant construction suitable for discreet indicator applications

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Discreet indicator lights for low-voltage circuits
• Status indication in compact electronic devices
• Panel indicators where minimal profile is required
• General-purpose visual signaling in consumer electronics

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct lens type and packaging configuration. Confirm that the requested variant matches the required luminous intensity and wavelength specifications for the target application. Check compliance certifications such as RoHS status directly from the datasheet or authorized distributor declarations. Ensure storage and handling procedures adhere to moisture sensitivity level requirements specified in the product data sheet.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile yellow indicator is needed for circuit status visualization. The 3x2mm package size allows for dense PCB layouts compared to larger through-hole alternatives. Consider the 120-degree viewing angle for visibility requirements and the 2V forward voltage drop for compatibility with standard logic-level drive circuits. Evaluate thermal management needs based on the 85°C maximum operating temperature limit.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's 3020 series of surface-mount LEDs, designed for high-density mounting. The 3020 metric package designation indicates a 3.0mm by 2.0mm outline. This series offers various color options and lens configurations to suit different visual signaling needs while maintaining a consistent form factor for manufacturing flexibility.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include APK3020SYCK and APDA3020SYCK/J3-PF, which share similar 3020 package dimensions and yellow emission characteristics. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameters before substitution. Other generic 3020 yellow SMD LEDs may fit mechanically but require verification of luminous intensity and forward voltage ratings.
