APD3224YC-F01

Overview

The Kingbright APD3224YC-F01 is a single-color surface-mount LED in the HeliColour series, housed in a 1210 (3.2x2.4mm) package. It emits yellow light at a wavelength of 588 nm with a water-clear dome lens. Key electrical parameters include a forward current of 20 mA, forward voltage of 2.1 V, and optical intensity of 40 mcd. The component operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and features moisture sensitivity level 3 compliance.

Feature Summary

• Compact 1210 SMD form factor for space-constrained designs
• Water-clear dome lens for optimized light transmission
• Low power consumption suitable for battery-operated devices

Applications

• Panel indicator lights
• Status indication on consumer electronics
• Instrumentation displays

Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) requirements during storage and handling. Confirm that the 1210 package dimensions align with PCB footprint specifications. Ensure soldering profiles meet Kingbright thermal recommendations for SMD components to prevent damage.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact yellow indicator is required for low-power applications. Compare against other HeliColour variants if different wavelengths or intensities are needed. Consider the 20 mA forward current rating for driver circuit design and ensure adequate thermal management for continuous operation.

Part Context

This component belongs to Kingbright's HeliColour series, which focuses on high-efficiency, low-profile LEDs. The APD3224YC-F01 specifically utilizes a 3.2x2.4mm SMD package, offering a balance between visibility and board space efficiency compared to larger through-hole alternatives.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other Kingbright 1210 yellow LEDs such as APD3224ZGCK-F01 for green variants or similar series members. Verify exact wavelength, intensity, and pin configuration before substitution.
