APHB1608CGKSURKC

Overview

The APHB1608CGKSURKC is a bi-color surface-mount LED from Kingbright, featuring green and red emitters in a 1.6 mm x 0.8 mm rectangular package with a height of 0.5 mm. It utilizes water-clear lenses to provide a 130-degree viewing angle. The device operates at a forward current of 20 mA, with forward voltages of 2 V for the green element and 2.1 V for the red element. Rated power is 75 mW, and it functions within a temperature range of -40 C to +85 C.

Feature Summary

• Dual-emitter configuration combining green and red light sources within a single compact footprint
• Water-clear rectangular lens design optimized for wide-angle visibility
• RoHS compliant construction suitable for automated surface-mount assembly processes

Applications

• Status indication on electronic control panels
• Bi-color signaling in industrial equipment interfaces
• Visual alerts in consumer appliance displays

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Kingbright documentation to confirm exact color wavelengths and intensity binning. Confirm moisture sensitivity level requirements for your manufacturing environment. Ensure compatibility with standard reflow soldering profiles specified in the datasheet. Cross-reference Mouser or distributor part numbers to validate packaging format availability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space-constrained designs require dual-state visual feedback without increasing board area. Consider the 130-degree viewing angle for applications requiring broad visibility. Evaluate the 20 mA drive requirement against available circuit current limits. Compare thermal dissipation capabilities against the 75 mW power rating for enclosed enclosures.

Part Context

This part belongs to the APHB series of bi-color LEDs manufactured by Kingbright. The series focuses on low-profile surface-mount solutions for modern electronics. It shares dimensional similarities with other 0603 metric footprints but offers distinct dual-chip functionality compared to single-color variants in the same package family.
