C503B-ABN-CY0Z0341

Overview

The C503B-ABN-CY0Z0341 is a single-color amber LED from the Cree series, designed for through-hole mounting in a 5 mm (T-1 3/4) package. It features two pins and an oval lens with a clear surface. The component operates at a forward voltage of 2.6 V and has a maximum power dissipation of 130 mW. Key electrical parameters include a peak wavelength of 596 nm and a maximum forward current of 50 mA. The optical output is specified at 12 cd, with a viewing angle of 23 degrees. It complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Features a 5 mm T-1 3/4 through-hole package with an oval lens design
• Provides amber light emission centered at a 596 nm peak wavelength
• Supports a maximum forward current of 50 mA with low power consumption

Applications

• General indicator lighting applications
• Panel status indication
• Consumer electronics visual signaling

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CY0Z0341 against official datasheets to confirm exact binning and luminous intensity ratings. Ensure that procurement channels provide valid RoHS compliance documentation. Confirm availability status as distribution listings may vary. Cross-reference the part number with manufacturer updates to avoid obsolete stock.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 5 mm amber indicator is required with a narrow 23-degree viewing angle. The 50 mA current rating allows for higher brightness compared to lower-current variants. Ensure circuit design accommodates the 2.6 V forward voltage drop. Verify mechanical fit within the target enclosure for the oval lens shape.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C503B series of single-color LEDs manufactured by Cree LED. The series utilizes a 5 mm T-1 3/4 leaded package format suitable for printed circuit board assembly. The amber variant specifically targets applications requiring distinct visual signaling without the need for multi-color components.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 5 mm T-1 3/4 package, amber color, and 596 nm wavelength. Verify equivalent forward voltage and current ratings to ensure circuit compatibility.
