APT1608LZGCK

Overview

The Kingbright APT1608LZGCK is a single-color green LED in a 0603 (1.6mm x 0.8mm) surface-mount package. It emits light at a wavelength of 525 nm with a viewing angle of 120 degrees. The component operates with a forward current of 2 mA and a forward voltage of 2.65 V, resulting in a power rating of 102.5 mW. Luminous intensity is rated at 50 mcd. It features a water-clear rectangular lens and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Low current operation optimized for energy efficiency
• Water-clear rectangular lens for consistent light transmission
• Wide 120-degree viewing angle for broad visibility

Applications

• Status indication on compact electronic devices
• Backlighting for small form-factor displays
• Indicator lights in portable consumer electronics

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix GCK against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm lead-free compliance and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure ESD handling protocols are followed due to moisture sensitivity classification. Cross-reference the Mouser part number 604-APT1608LZGCK for accurate sourcing documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when low drive current is required to minimize power consumption in battery-operated systems. The 0603 footprint allows for high-density PCB layouts. Compare luminous intensity requirements against the 50 mcd rating to ensure adequate visibility for the intended application environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Kingbright APT1608 series of surface-mount LEDs. The series offers various color options in a standardized 0603 metric package, facilitating design flexibility across different product lines while maintaining consistent mechanical mounting dimensions.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Kingbright documentation for direct substitutes within the APT1608 family. Verify electrical parameters such as forward voltage and luminous intensity before substituting with other manufacturers' 0603 green LEDs.
