AM23SURDK-F-C2

Overview

The AM23SURDK-F-C2 is a single-color surface mount LED manufactured by Kingbright, designed for indicator applications. It features a hyper red diffused lens with a peak wavelength of 630 nm and emits illumination in the red spectrum. The component utilizes an SOT-23-3 package with rectangular lens geometry. Key electrical parameters include a forward current rating of 20 mA and a typical forward voltage of 1.85 V. The device offers a viewing angle of 170 degrees and a light intensity of 60 mcd. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and has a maximum power rating of 75 mW.

Feature Summary

• Diffused red lens design provides wide-angle visibility suitable for panel indicators
• SOT-23-3 surface mount package enables compact PCB integration
• Low forward voltage operation supports energy-efficient circuit designs

Applications

• Status indication on electronic control panels
• Power supply status signaling
• Medical device operational indicators

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix C2 against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm optical characteristics and binning requirements. Ensure compatibility with moisture sensitivity level 3 handling procedures during storage and assembly. Cross-reference the official part number with distributor listings to avoid confusion with similar variants in the AM23 series.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile red indicator is required for space-constrained surface mount layouts. The 170-degree viewing angle makes it suitable for applications requiring broad visual accessibility. Consider the 1.85 V forward voltage drop for power budget calculations in low-voltage systems.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Kingbright AM23 series of surface mount LEDs, which are characterized by their small SOT-23 footprint and high brightness output. The series is widely used in consumer electronics and industrial equipment where reliable visual signaling is critical. The AM23SURDK-F-C2 specifically addresses the need for diffused red illumination in compact form factors.

Replacement Considerations

KM-23SURCK-F is a documented alternative from the same manufacturer offering similar SOT-23 packaging and red emission characteristics.
