Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against manufacturer documentation to ensure compatibility with design requirements. Confirm that the SMD-6 package dimensions and pin configuration match the PCB footprint. Check for moisture sensitivity levels and reflow soldering profile recommendations to prevent damage during assembly. Ensure the operating temperature range meets the environmental conditions of the intended application.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile RGB solution with a wide viewing angle is required. The right-angle orientation suits applications where light emission needs to be directed perpendicular to the board surface. Compare forward voltage and current requirements with driver circuit capabilities to ensure proper operation. Consider the power dissipation limits for each color channel under continuous use conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Kingbright HeliColour series, which focuses on multi-color LEDs for various indication and lighting needs. The APFA3011 variant specifically utilizes an SMD-6 package, distinguishing it from other series members that may use different form factors like SMD-4 or through-hole configurations. The series emphasizes compactness and high brightness for modern electronic designs.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Kingbright documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Cross-reference electrical parameters such as forward voltage, current, and wavelength to ensure functional equivalence. Verify package dimensions and pinout compatibility before substitution.
