APA3010SECK

Overview

The APA3010SECK is a single-color orange LED manufactured by Kingbright, designed for surface-mount technology. It features a side-looker package with semitube lens shape and water clear transparency. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 601 nm with an intensity of 250 mcd. Electrical characteristics include a forward current of 20 mA, forward voltage of 2.1 V, and power rating of 75 mW. Dimensions are 3 mm in length, 2 mm in width, and 1 mm in height. It operates between -40°C and +85°C with a viewing angle of 120 degrees.

Feature Summary

• Side-viewing orientation for visibility from lateral angles
• Water clear lens material for optimal light transmission
• Semitube lens geometry to direct emission profile
• RoHS compliant construction for environmental safety

Applications

• Status indication on electronic circuit boards
• Instrument panel lighting
• Consumer device visual signaling
• Industrial control interface illumination

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'K' indicates reel packaging when ordering. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Ensure handling procedures account for moisture sensitivity classification during storage and reflow processes. Cross-reference the alias KPA-3010SECK if sourcing from distributors using alternative nomenclature systems.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring lateral visibility rather than top-down emission. The 2mm x 1mm footprint suits compact board layouts where space is constrained. Orange color selection provides high contrast against dark backgrounds. Verify that the 2.1V forward voltage aligns with available drive circuitry capabilities within the target system design constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's single-color LED portfolio, specifically the APA series characterized by small form factor surface-mount packages. It shares dimensional similarities with other side-looker variants but differs in optical output and electrical parameters based on the semiconductor die used. The series supports various colors and intensities for diverse indicator needs.

Replacement Considerations

• APA3010SEC (differs in light intensity specification)
