AM2520ZGC03

Overview

The AM2520ZGC03 is a single-color green surface-mount LED manufactured by Kingbright. It features a water-clear dome lens with a wavelength of 525 nm and emits light at an intensity of 2500 mcd. The component operates with a forward current of 20 mA and a forward voltage of 3.3 V, resulting in a power rating of 102.5 mW. Its physical dimensions are 2.5 mm in length, 2 mm in width, and 2.8 mm in height, housed in an SMD-2 package. The device supports a viewing angle of 20 degrees and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes a water-clear dome lens for focused optical output
• Designed for surface-mount technology (SMD/SMT) installation
• Provides high-intensity green illumination at 525 nm

Applications

• Indicator lights for electronic equipment
• Panel status displays
• Instrumentation visual signaling

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure compatibility with required lens transparency and intensity grades. Confirm moisture sensitivity handling procedures during storage and assembly. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with distributor catalogs to validate RoHS compliance status and availability of official datasheets prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 2520 form factor is required for high-brightness green indication. Consider the 3.3 V forward voltage drop for circuit design calculations. Ensure the 20-degree viewing angle aligns with optical requirements. Verify thermal management capabilities given the 102.5 mW power dissipation in enclosed spaces.

Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's AM2520 series of ultra-miniature surface-mount LEDs. The series offers various color options and lens configurations within a standardized 2.5 x 2.0 mm footprint. The ZGC03 designation specifically identifies the green wavelength variant with clear lens optics, distinguishing it from diffused or amber alternatives in the same package family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include KM2520ZGC03, which shares identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Other Kingbright variants in the 2520 series may fit mechanically but require verification of wavelength and intensity parameters.
