APG1005SEC-T

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The APG1005SEC-T is a red surface-mount LED from Kingbright's Minikin-Air series, housed in a 0402 (1005 metric) package measuring 1.00mm x 0.50mm with a maximum height of 0.25mm. It emits light at a peak wavelength of 632nm and a dominant wavelength of 624nm through a clear, rectangular lens with a flat top. The component operates with a typical forward voltage of 2V at a test current of 20mA, producing an intensity of 75mcd to 127mcd. It features a 120-degree viewing angle and is rated for operation between -40°C and +85°C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Ultra-thin 0.25mm profile design suitable for space-constrained applications
• High brightness output within a standard 0402 footprint
• Water-clear lens material for optimal light transmission
• RoHS3 compliant construction

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Status indication on mobile devices
• Backlighting for compact consumer electronics
• Indicator lights in portable medical equipment
• Signal indicators in automotive interior panels

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against manufacturer documentation, as 'E' variants are explicitly listed in public catalogs while 'T' may denote tape/reel packaging or a specific revision. Confirm moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) handling requirements during assembly. Ensure compatibility with standard reflow soldering profiles for 0402 components. Cross-reference ordering part numbers with authorized distributors to confirm availability and exact specification alignment.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile red indicator is required for dense circuit layouts. The 0402 size offers a balance between visibility and board space efficiency compared to smaller 0201 packages. Consider the 120-degree viewing angle for broad visibility needs. Verify that the 2V forward voltage aligns with the system's drive circuit capabilities. Check thermal management requirements given the small form factor.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

Part of the Minikin-Air series, designed for ultra-thin applications. Shares the 0402 footprint with other colors in the APG1005 family. Differs from side-looker types like APA3010 by providing top-down illumination. Comparable in size to APG1005VWF but optimized for red spectrum emission rather than white.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

APG1005SEC/E-T is a documented equivalent variant with identical electrical and mechanical specifications.
