APT2012EC

Overview

The Kingbright APT2012EC is a high-brightness, single-color LED component featuring an ultra-compact 2.0 x 1.2 mm surface-mount package. It utilizes a 5mm diffused epoxy lens to provide a wide viewing angle and uniform light distribution. The device is designed for applications requiring intense luminous intensity within restricted board space constraints.

Feature Summary

• Ultra-compact 2.0 x 1.2 mm footprint suitable for dense PCB layouts
• High brightness output with diffused lens for uniform illumination
• RoHS compliant construction without halogenated flame retardants

Applications

• Mobile phone keypads and displays
• Portable electronic device indicators
• Medical equipment status lights
• Wearable technology components

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific wavelength bin and forward voltage classification required for your circuit design against the manufacturer's current datasheet specifications. Ensure that the soldering profile adheres strictly to the recommended thermal reflow curves to prevent package damage or delamination during assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when board real estate is limited but high visibility is required. Consider the operating temperature range and reverse voltage ratings relative to your system's power supply stability. Confirm compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment due to the small form factor.

Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's advanced surface-mount LED portfolio, focusing on miniaturization without sacrificing optical performance. It represents a shift towards smaller packages in consumer electronics where space optimization is critical for device thinness and internal component density.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 2.0 x 1.2 mm outline and pin configuration. Verify identical electrical characteristics including forward voltage and peak forward current limits. Check mechanical height specifications to ensure clearance within the final enclosure design.
