C503B-GAS-CB0F0792

Overview

The C503B-GAS-CB0F0792 is a green through-hole LED from the Cree C503B series, housed in a 5 mm (T-1 3/4) round package. It emits at a typical wavelength of 527 nm with a forward voltage of 3.2 V and a test current of 20 mA. The component delivers a high luminous intensity of 50,000 mcd with a narrow viewing angle of 15 degrees. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +95°C and features a clear, colorless lens.

Feature Summary

• High-intensity green emission optimized for visibility
• Narrow 15-degree beam angle for focused indication
• Robust operation across extended industrial temperature ranges

Applications

• Panel status indicators requiring high brightness
• Industrial control equipment signaling
• Automotive instrument cluster illumination
• Medical device front-panel feedback

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Cree documentation to confirm optical binning and packaging format. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid RoHS compliance certificates. Confirm that the supplier source matches the manufacturer's authorized distribution network to guarantee component authenticity and traceability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high luminous intensity and a narrow viewing angle are critical requirements. The 5 mm through-hole form factor suits standard PCB layouts. Consider the 3.2 V forward voltage drop for circuit design. Verify thermal management capabilities given the +95°C maximum operating temperature limit.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C503B family of 5 mm round LEDs, which includes blue and green variants. The 'GAS' designation typically indicates a high-brightness green variant with specific binning. This series is designed for general indication applications where superior light output is necessary compared to standard intensity components.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other C503B-Gxx variants with matching 527 nm wavelength and 15-degree viewing angle. Cross-reference with C503B-GCN or C503B-GAN series parts if different intensity levels or packaging formats are acceptable. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters before substitution.
