APHCM2012SECK-F01

Overview

The APHCM2012SECK-F01 is a Kingbright orange surface-mount LED in the KP-2012 series. It features a 2012 (0805) package with dimensions of 2.0mm x 1.25mm and a maximum thickness of 0.45mm. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 601nm with a clear, colorless lens. Key electrical parameters include a forward voltage of 2.1V to 2.5V, a forward current of 20mA, and a power rating of 75mW. Luminous intensity ranges from 180mcd to 250mcd, supported by a 120-degree viewing angle.

Feature Summary

• Compact 2012 metric surface-mount package for space-constrained designs
• Clear lens configuration providing high transparency and defined beam pattern
• Wide 120-degree viewing angle for broad visibility applications
• Low power consumption characteristics suitable for battery-operated devices

Applications

• Status indication on consumer electronic devices
• Panel indicators for medical equipment
• Signal lights in industrial control systems
• Backlighting for small displays or buttons

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific luminous intensity bin (e.g., 180mcd vs 250mcd) as datasheets may vary between distributors. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized supplier documentation. Ensure soldering profiles match the thermal specifications for the 2012 SMD package to prevent damage during assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard orange indicator is required in an 0805 footprint. Compare forward voltage requirements against the driving circuit to ensure proper current limiting. Consider the 120-degree viewing angle if wide-area visibility is necessary. Verify that the clear lens type meets the optical clarity requirements of the application environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's KP-2012 series of single-color SMD LEDs. It utilizes a standard 2012 metric case size, commonly referred to as 0805 in imperial measurements. The series is designed for general-purpose indication, offering a balance of brightness and low power usage in a compact form factor suitable for automated pick-and-place manufacturing.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include APHCM2012SURCK-F01 (Red) and APHCM2012SGCK-F01 (Green). For identical orange output, verify compatibility with APK3216SECK-F01 if a larger 1206 package is acceptable. Cross-reference pinout and thermal ratings before substituting.
