AM2520ZGCK03

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The AM2520ZGCK03 is a single-color green surface-mount LED manufactured by Kingbright. It emits light at a peak wavelength of 515 nm with a dominant wavelength of 525 nm. The component features a water-clear, colorless dome lens and operates with a forward voltage of 3.3 V at a test current of 20 mA. It delivers a luminous intensity of 2700 mcd and has a viewing angle of 20 degrees. The device is housed in a 2-SMD Z-shaped bent package measuring 2.50 mm in length, 2.00 mm in width, and up to 2.90 mm in height. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Utilizes a Z-shaped bent SMD package design for bottom-entry mounting compatibility.
• Features a water-clear dome lens to optimize light transmission and visibility.
• Provides high-intensity green emission suitable for discrete indicator applications.

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Discrete electronic indicators
• Panel status signaling
• Consumer electronics front panels

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix K03 against project requirements to ensure correct binning and optical characteristics. Confirm that the Z-shaped bent package orientation aligns with the PCB footprint design. Check moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) handling procedures during storage and assembly. Ensure the supplier provides valid RoHS3 compliance documentation. Validate the 20mA forward current rating against the system's power budget constraints.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile green indicator with high brightness is required. The Z-shaped package allows for specific mechanical mounting orientations not supported by standard flat SMD LEDs. Consider the 20-degree viewing angle for focused visibility needs. Compare the 3.3V forward voltage drop against available drive voltages. Evaluate the 2700 mcd intensity against ambient lighting conditions to ensure adequate visibility.
