BL-HKC37A-AV-TRB

Overview

The BL-HKC37A-AV-TRB is a yellow surface-mount LED from American Bright Optoelectronics Corporation, housed in a 0402 (1005 metric) package. It emits at a peak wavelength of 590 nm with a typical forward voltage of 2.2 V at a test current of 20 mA. The device features a clear lens and offers a viewing angle of 120 degrees. Its luminous intensity is rated at 120 mcd. The component measures 1.00 mm in length, 0.50 mm in width, and has a maximum height of 0.45 mm.

Feature Summary

• Compact 0402 surface-mount form factor for space-constrained designs
• High brightness yellow emission with 120-degree viewing angle
• RoHS compliant construction without REACH restrictions

Applications

• General indicator lighting in electronic devices
• Status indication on printed circuit boards
• Instrument panel illumination

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm packaging type, such as TR for tape and reel or CT for cut tape. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements before integration into the manufacturing process. Ensure the supplier provides valid documentation for the component's environmental certifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small footprint is required alongside high visibility yellow indication. Consider the 2.2 V forward voltage drop for driver circuit design. Evaluate the 120 mcd intensity against ambient light conditions to ensure adequate visibility for the intended application environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BL-HKC37 series of single-color LEDs manufactured by American Bright Optoelectronics Corporation. The series includes various color options within the same 0402 package dimensions, allowing for consistent mechanical design across different product variants while enabling color-coded signaling.
