AEMD-EG3K-VW002

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The AEMD-EG3K-VW002 is a single-color red LED from the AEMD series, manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It features a surface-mount (SMD) installation style with a 3-SMD package configuration. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 630 nm and has a viewing angle of 33 degrees. Key electrical parameters include a forward current of 20 mA, a forward voltage of 2.1 V, and a power rating of 120 mW. The optical intensity is rated at 4.2 cd. The lens is round, non-diffused, and tinted red, with dimensions of 4.2 mm x 4.2 mm and a maximum height of 6.8 mm. It operates within a temperature range of -40 C to +85 C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Surface-mount design with a compact 3-SMD footprint for automated assembly
• High-intensity red emission optimized for visibility in indicator applications
• Non-diffused dome lens shape provides focused directional light output

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Status indicators on electronic equipment panels
• Control panel signaling in industrial machinery
• Visual alerts in automotive instrumentation systems

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix VW002 against official Broadcom documentation to confirm exact binning and packaging details. Ensure compatibility with RoHS3 standards if required by your manufacturing process. Check moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) handling requirements before reflow soldering. Confirm availability status as supply conditions may vary over time.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-brightness red SMD LED with a narrow viewing angle is required. Compare the 4.2 cd intensity against alternatives if higher luminosity is needed. Consider the 2.1 V forward voltage drop for circuit design calculations. Verify that the 4.2 mm x 4.2 mm footprint fits within the available PCB space constraints.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the AEMD series of surface-mount LEDs from Broadcom. The series offers various colors and lens configurations for general indication purposes. The AEMD-EG3K variant specifically denotes the red color option within this family. It is designed for reliable performance in commercial and industrial environments.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Consult official Broadcom substitution guides for direct replacements. Generic equivalents may differ in intensity or thermal characteristics. Verify pinout and dimensional compatibility before integrating alternative components into existing designs.
