APETD3528QBC/D

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The APETD3528QBC/D is a single-color blue surface-mount LED manufactured by Kingbright. It features a water-clear lens with a dome shape and emits light at a peak wavelength of 470 nm. The component operates with a forward current of 20 mA and a forward voltage of 3.3 V, delivering an optical intensity of 400 mcd. It has a viewing angle of 60 degrees and is housed in a 1411 (3528 metric) package measuring 3.5 mm in length, 2.8 mm in width, and 3.2 mm in height. The device supports a power rating of 120 mW and functions within a temperature range of -40 C to +85 C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Emits blue light at 470 nm with high optical intensity
• Water-clear dome lens for focused beam distribution
• Standard SMD/SMT mounting compatibility

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Indicator lighting for electronic devices
• Backlighting applications requiring blue illumination
• Status indication in control panels

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix D against official Kingbright documentation to confirm packaging details such as reel or cut tape specifications. Ensure that the moisture sensitivity level requirements are met during storage and handling procedures. Cross-reference the Mouser number 604-APETD3528QBC/D for accurate sourcing from authorized distributors. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's latest datasheet before integration into regulated products.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a 60-degree viewing angle is required for directional blue indication. The 3.2 mm height distinguishes it from lower-profile alternatives like the AA3528 series. Consider the 400 mcd intensity for visibility needs compared to lower output variants. Verify thermal management capabilities given the 120 mW power rating and operating temperature limits.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's 3528 metric series of single-color LEDs. It shares the standard footprint dimensions with other components in the family but differs in optical characteristics such as wavelength and intensity. The APETD designation indicates specific lens and emission properties unique to this model within the broader product line.
