APF3236SURKVGAPBA

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The APF3236SURKVGAPBA is a surface-mount RGB LED from Kingbright’s HeliColour series, housed in a 3.2x3.6mm package with six SMD contacts. It emits red (630 nm), green (525 nm), and blue (470 nm) light through a colorless lens. The device operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is classified as moisture-sensitive. Electrical characteristics include forward voltages of 1.95V for red, and 3.2V for both green and blue channels.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Integrates three distinct primary colors into a single compact surface-mount component
• Features a colorless lens design for neutral light transmission
• Supports wide operating temperature ranges suitable for diverse environments

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Status indication in electronic devices
• Backlighting for small form-factor displays
• Decorative lighting in consumer electronics

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to ensure compatibility with required wavelength tolerances and voltage specifications. Confirm moisture sensitivity handling requirements during storage and reflow soldering processes. Check lifecycle status as some sources indicate obsolete variants exist.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile RGB solution is required for space-constrained designs. Ensure the application circuit accounts for the different forward voltage drops between the red and blue/green channels. Verify that the PCB footprint matches the 3.2x3.6mm package dimensions and pad layout specified in the official mechanical drawings.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright’s HeliColour series, which focuses on multi-color LED solutions. It serves as an alternative to discrete LED assemblies by combining red, green, and blue emitters into one unit. The model number indicates specific optical and electrical configurations within the broader product family.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Users should consult Kingbright directly for cross-reference recommendations or verify if generic 3.2x3.6mm RGB SMD LEDs meet the specific wavelength and voltage requirements.
