APTD1608LSECK/J3-PF

Overview

The APTD1608LSECK/J3-PF is a single-color surface-mount LED manufactured by Kingbright, housed in a 0603 (1.6mm x 0.8mm) package with a height of 0.55 mm. It emits red light at a peak wavelength of 625 nm with a viewing angle of 140 degrees. The component operates with a forward current of 2 mA and a forward voltage of 1.85 V. It features a water-clear dome lens and delivers an optical intensity of 25 mcd.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a red emitting diode within a compact 0603 SMD footprint for space-constrained designs.
• Utilizes a water-clear dome lens to provide a wide 140-degree viewing angle.
• Designed for low-power operation with a specified forward current of 2 mA.

Applications

• Status indication on electronic circuit boards
• Low-power indicator lights in consumer devices
• Visual signaling in portable electronics

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix J3-PF against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm specific binning or packaging variations. Ensure compatibility with standard reflow soldering profiles for 0603 packages. Confirm moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to assembly to prevent damage during placement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor red indicator is required with a wide viewing angle. Compare specifications against similar 0603 red LEDs regarding forward voltage and luminous intensity. Consider the 2 mA drive current requirement for power budget calculations in battery-operated applications.

Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's 1608 series of surface-mount LEDs. It shares the physical dimensions with other variants in the family but differs in color and electrical characteristics. The 0603 package size allows for high-density PCB layouts compared to larger LED packages.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 0603 red LEDs with similar 625 nm wavelength and 2 mA forward current ratings. Verify that alternative parts match the 140-degree viewing angle and 0.55 mm height constraints for mechanical fit.
