Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct binning and optical characteristics match the design requirements. Confirm that the bulk packaging format aligns with available assembly equipment capabilities. Cross-reference the datasheet specifications for thermal management needs during operation. Ensure compatibility with standard through-hole soldering processes used in the manufacturing line.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a bright, cool white indication is required in a compact 3mm form factor. Consider the 65-degree beam width for visibility requirements. Evaluate the 3.4 V forward voltage drop against the available drive voltage in the circuit design. Ensure the through-hole package fits within the mechanical constraints of the target PCB layout.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C374T series of 3mm round LEDs manufactured by Cree LED. The series offers various color temperatures and intensities. The WQN suffix typically denotes specific binning or optical properties within the product line. This discrete LED is categorized under optoelectronics for indication purposes.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 3mm through-hole cool white LEDs with similar luminous intensity and forward voltage. Verify pin compatibility and mechanical dimensions before substitution. Check if alternative parts meet the same color temperature and viewing angle specifications.
