BL-HX135A-TRB

Overview

The BL-HX135A-TRB is a single-color surface-mount LED manufactured by American Bright Optoelectronics Corporation. It features an 0805 (2012 metric) package with a green lens and water-clear appearance. The device emits light at a wavelength of 570 nm to 575 nm, with a luminous intensity of 12 mcd. Electrical characteristics include a forward current of 20 mA, a forward voltage of 2.2 V, and a power rating of 44 mW. The component utilizes a rectangular lens shape and is supplied in tape and reel packaging.

Feature Summary

• Green emission with high efficiency for clear visibility
• Low-profile 0805 surface-mount design for space-constrained applications
• Water-clear rectangular lens for consistent light distribution

Applications

• Space-saving display indicators
• Show stopper visual signaling
• General discrete indication circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and electrical tolerances against the manufacturer's official documentation before integration. Confirm that the 0805 footprint matches your PCB layout requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with your system environment. Check moisture sensitivity levels if storage conditions are critical. Validate the forward voltage drop under your specific load conditions to ensure proper circuit biasing.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact green indicator is required for low-power applications. The 0805 package offers a balance between visibility and board space efficiency. Consider the 2.2 V forward voltage for compatibility with standard logic-level drivers. Evaluate the 12 mcd intensity against ambient lighting conditions to ensure adequate visibility. Verify mechanical height constraints to ensure clearance within the final assembly.

Part Context

This part belongs to the American Bright Optoelectronics Corporation single-color LED family. It is designed for general-purpose indication where size and color clarity are priorities. The 0805 form factor is widely used in consumer electronics and industrial control panels. It serves as a visual status indicator for power, activity, or fault conditions in compact devices.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 0805 package, 570–575 nm wavelength, and 2.2 V forward voltage. Verify luminous intensity requirements if higher brightness is needed. Ensure the replacement supports the same 20 mA forward current. Check mechanical dimensions for exact fit. Confirm thermal management capabilities if operating near maximum ratings.
