C503B-RAN-CA0B0AA2

Overview

The C503B-RAN-CA0B0AA2 is a single-color red LED from the Cree series, housed in a 5 mm (T-1 3/4) round package. It features two pins for through-hole mounting and utilizes a colorless lens with a clear surface. The component operates at a forward voltage of 2.1 V with a maximum forward current of 20 mA and a power rating of 130 mW. It emits light at a peak wavelength of 618 nm with an intensity of 12000 mcd and a viewing angle of 23 degrees.

Feature Summary

• Provides superior light output within the 5 mm round LED form factor
• Features a colorless dome lens for transparent illumination
• Designed for standard through-hole PCB installation

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CA0B0AA2 against official Cree documentation to confirm the exact binning and packaging configuration. Ensure compatibility with existing circuit designs regarding the 20 mA forward current limit and 2.1 V forward voltage drop. Confirm RoHS compliance status as required by project specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 5 mm red indicator is required with moderate brightness levels around 12000 mcd. The 23-degree viewing angle suits applications needing focused visibility rather than wide dispersion. Consider the 20 mA drive requirement for power budgeting and ensure the through-hole footprint matches the target PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C503B family of 5 mm round LEDs manufactured by Cree LED. The series includes various colors such as red and amber, offering consistent performance across different wavelengths. These components are designed for general-purpose electronic applications requiring reliable visual signaling.
