APA3010ZGCK-GX

Overview

The APA3010ZGCK-GX is a single-color green light-emitting diode manufactured by Kingbright. It features a right-angle surface-mount package with dimensions of 3.00mm length, 2.00mm width, and a maximum height of 1.15mm. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 515nm and a dominant wavelength of 525nm. Typical forward voltage is 3.3V at a test current of 20mA. It offers a luminous intensity of 300mcd and a viewing angle of 120 degrees.

Feature Summary

• Right-angle surface-mount configuration for compact PCB layout
• Water-clear lens material for high transparency
• Rectangular lens shape with domed top design

Applications

• General indicator lighting in electronic devices
• Backlighting applications requiring side emission
• Status indication on control panels

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix GX against manufacturer documentation to confirm exact optical and electrical tolerances. Ensure compatibility with RoHS3 and REACH regulations as stated in official datasheets. Confirm moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) handling requirements during storage and assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a right-angle LED output is required for space-constrained designs. The 300mcd intensity suits standard visibility needs. Verify that the 3.3V forward voltage aligns with the driving circuit's supply capabilities and current limiting resistors.

Part Context

This part belongs to the APA3010 series of Kingbright LEDs. The series includes various colors and configurations. The ZGCK-GX designation specifies the green color, right-angle orientation, and specific packaging or binning characteristics defined by the manufacturer.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution lists for compatible parts. Generic replacements may differ in luminous intensity, viewing angle, or forward voltage. Verify pinout and mechanical footprint compatibility before integration.
