APT2012MGC

Overview

The Kingbright APT2012MGC is a single-color surface-mount LED in the Mega Green series, housed in an 0805 (2012 metric) package. It emits light at a peak wavelength of 570 nm with a typical forward voltage of 2.1 V at a test current of 20 mA. The component features a water-clear lens and offers a luminous intensity of 70 mcd. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and complies with RoHS3 standards.

Feature Summary

• Standard 0805 SMD form factor for compact circuit board layouts
• Water-clear rectangular lens for consistent light transmission
• High luminous intensity output suitable for visible indication

Applications

• General electronic device status indicators
• Panel mount indicator lights
• Backlighting for control interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct tape and reel configuration matches your automated assembly requirements. Confirm that the active part number aligns with current production availability, as older stock may have different packaging or minor specification variances compared to newly manufactured units.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 0805 footprint is required for green indication. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the 2.1 V forward voltage drop at 20 mA. Consider the 120-degree viewing angle for visibility requirements and verify thermal management capabilities for operation up to 85°C.

Part Context

This component belongs to Kingbright's APT2012 series of surface-mount LEDs. The series provides various color options in a standardized 2.0mm x 1.25mm package, facilitating easy integration into consumer electronics and industrial equipment where space-constrained indicator lighting is necessary.

Replacement Considerations

Kingbright recommends the APT2012SURCK as a potential alternative. Verify electrical parameters and physical dimensions before substitution.
