APA2106SYCK

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

Kingbright APA2106SYCK is a single-color surface-mount LED emitting yellow light at a peak wavelength of 590 nm. It features a water-clear semitube lens and operates with a typical forward voltage of 2 V at a test current of 20 mA. The device delivers a minimum luminous intensity of 150 mcd and offers a wide viewing angle of 120 degrees. Designed for right-angle surface mounting, it measures 2.1 mm in length, 1.0 mm in width, and has a maximum height of 0.6 mm. The component supports operation within a temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Right-angle surface mount configuration for compact PCB layout
• Wide 120-degree viewing angle for broad visibility
• Water-clear semitube lens for optimized light transmission

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Electronic status indicators
• Backlighting applications
• Panel indicator lamps

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'SYCK' corresponds to the yellow 590nm variant with 150mcd intensity. Confirm moisture sensitivity level 3 compliance and RoHS3 status. Ensure ordering quantities align with standard reel packaging requirements. Cross-reference datasheet revision dates for accurate dimensional tolerances.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring right-angle illumination and high brightness in a small footprint. Compare against APA2107SYCK if vertical orientation is preferred. Verify thermal management capabilities for continuous operation near the upper temperature limit. Check compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment due to the SMD package style.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

The APA2106 series represents Kingbright's line of 2.1mm x 0.6mm right-angle surface-mount LEDs. This family includes various colors such as red, green, orange, and yellow. The SYCK suffix specifically denotes the yellow emission variant with standard clear lens optics designed for general indication purposes.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

APA2107SYCK serves as a direct substitute offering identical electrical characteristics but with a vertical (straight) lead configuration instead of the right-angle design.
