C4SMF-GJF-CV14Q7T1

Overview

The C4SMF-GJF-CV14Q7T1 is a green monochromatic LED from the Screen Master series, manufactured by Cree LED. It features a radial through-hole package with an oval lens shape and water-clear transparency. The component operates at a forward current of 20 mA with a forward voltage of 3.4 V. It emits light at a peak wavelength of 527 nm with a luminous intensity of 4400 mcd. The physical dimensions are defined by a 4 mm lead spacing.

Feature Summary

• Designed for high visibility in variable-message signs and passenger-information displays
• Features an oval-shaped radiation pattern optimized for directional viewing angles
• Constructed with a water-clear lens to maximize light transmission efficiency

Applications

• Variable-message traffic signs
• Passenger information display systems
• Outdoor public signage requiring high brightness

Procurement Notes

Verify availability status as this component may be discontinued or subject to limited supply constraints. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required optical and electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with existing through-hole assembly processes and verify compliance with relevant environmental regulations before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high luminous intensity and specific oval beam distribution are required for outdoor readability. Consider the 527 nm wavelength for optimal human eye sensitivity in daylight conditions. Evaluate the 4 mm radial package for standard PCB mounting requirements and ensure thermal management aligns with the specified power rating.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Screen Master family of LEDs, which are engineered specifically for demanding outdoor applications. The series emphasizes durability and high brightness output suitable for environments where direct sunlight exposure is common. The oval lens design differentiates it from standard round LEDs by providing a wider horizontal viewing angle.

Replacement Considerations

The C4SMF-GJF-CV14Q7T1 is listed as discontinued. Potential substitutes include similar green 4mm oval LEDs such as the 3474AN. Verify that any replacement maintains the same forward voltage, current rating, and mechanical footprint to ensure seamless integration without redesigning the host circuit board.
