AP2012YD

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The AP2012YD is a single-color yellow surface-mount LED from Kingbright, housed in a 2012 (0805 metric) package. It features a diffused lens with dimensions of 2.0 x 1.25 mm. The component operates at a forward voltage of 2.1V and emits light at a wavelength of 590nm. Key electrical parameters include a maximum forward current of 30mA and a power dissipation rating of 75mW. The LED provides a luminous intensity of 150 mcd with a viewing angle of 120 degrees.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Diffused yellow lens for wide-angle visibility
• Compact 2012 surface-mount footprint
• High luminous intensity output

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Indicator lights on electronic devices
• Backlighting for small displays
• Status indication in portable electronics

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official datasheet to confirm lens type and binning requirements. Ensure that the ordering information matches the exact package dimensions and spectral characteristics required for the design. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status with the latest manufacturer documentation before finalizing procurement.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact yellow indicator is needed for space-constrained designs. The 2012 package offers a balance between visibility and board area efficiency. Consider the 120-degree viewing angle for applications requiring broad visual coverage rather than focused beam directionality.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's SMD Chip LED Lamp series, specifically designed for surface-mount technology. It is part of the broader family of 2012 package LEDs, which are widely used in consumer electronics due to their standardized dimensions and reliable performance in high-volume manufacturing processes.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the same 2012 package size from other manufacturers if supply constraints exist. Verify that alternative parts match the 2.1V forward voltage and 590nm wavelength to ensure color consistency and circuit compatibility.
