BL-B3141K-LC3

Overview

The BL-B3141K-LC3 is a single-color yellow LED from American Bright Optoelectronics Corporation, designed for through-hole mounting in a T-1 (3 mm) package. It features a diffused dome lens and emits at a peak wavelength of 585 nm. The component operates with a forward current of 20 mA and a forward voltage of 2.1 V, resulting in a power rating of 80 mW. It provides an optical intensity of 45 mcd.

Feature Summary

• Through-hole installation in a T-1 3 mm form factor
• Diffused yellow lens for broad light distribution
• Compatible with standard automatic placement equipment

Applications

• Status indicators in consumer electronics
• General purpose visual signaling
• Industrial control panel displays

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct binning and lens transparency specifications. Confirm that the T-1 package dimensions align with the target PCB footprint requirements. Check RoHS compliance status directly on the datasheet before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a diffused yellow indicator is required for through-hole assembly. The 3 mm diameter offers a balance between visibility and board space. Ensure the driving circuit supports the 2.1 V forward voltage drop at 20 mA. Consider the 45 mcd intensity for applications requiring moderate brightness without excessive glare.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BL-B series of round type LEDs manufactured by American Bright Optoelectronics Corporation. The series utilizes standard leaded configurations suitable for traditional manufacturing processes. It represents a discrete optoelectronic solution distinct from surface-mount or multi-color arrays.
