AP3216MGC

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The AP3216MGC is a single-color surface-mount LED manufactured by Kingbright, emitting Mega Green light with a peak wavelength of 570 nm. Housed in a 1206 (3216 metric) rectangular package measuring 3.2 mm x 1.6 mm x 1.1 mm, it features a water-clear lens and a 120-degree viewing angle. The device operates with a forward current of 20 mA and a forward voltage of 2.1 V, delivering an optical intensity of 70 mcd at a power rating of 75 mW. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and is moisture sensitive.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Emits high-intensity Mega Green light suitable for visual indicators
• Utilizes a rectangular water-clear lens for wide 120-degree visibility
• Designed for surface-mount technology with compact 1206 footprint

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Panel status indicators
• Equipment front-panel signaling
• Consumer electronics status lights

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Kingbright documentation to confirm exact binning and packaging specifications. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements during storage and assembly. Ensure compatibility with standard reflow soldering profiles for 1206 packages. Cross-reference RoHS compliance status with current regulatory standards before procurement.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact green indicator is required for space-constrained designs. The 1206 package offers a balance between visibility and board real estate. Consider the 2.1 V forward voltage drop for circuit design. Verify that the 70 mcd intensity meets visibility requirements for the intended application environment.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's SMD LED portfolio, specifically the 3216 metric series. It shares physical dimensions with other variants in the APT/APK/APTD families but differs in semiconductor material and emission color. The Mega Green spectrum targets applications requiring distinct visual signaling without the spectral overlap of standard green LEDs.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

AP3216MGCK is a documented alias for this component. Verify pinout and electrical characteristics if substituting with other 1206 green LEDs from different manufacturers.
