C503B-RAN-CY0B0AA1

Overview

The C503B-RAN-CY0B0AA1 is a single-color amber LED from the Cree series, housed in a 5 mm (T-1 3/4) round package with a domed top lens. It features a forward voltage of 2.1 V and a test current of 20 mA. The device emits light at a peak wavelength of 593 nm with a luminous intensity of 12000 mcd. It has a viewing angle of 15 degrees and operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +100 °C.

Feature Summary

• Amber-tinted illumination with transparent lens
• Compact 5 mm round form factor
• High luminous intensity output

Applications

• LED indication
• Discrete signaling
• Panel status indicators

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm datasheet alignment for electrical parameters including forward voltage and luminous intensity. Ensure RoHS compliance requirements are met for specific regional regulations. Validate packaging specifications against project needs prior to ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high-brightness amber indication in a standard 5 mm through-hole package. Consider the 15-degree viewing angle for focused beam requirements. Evaluate thermal management capabilities given the operating temperature range up to 100 °C. Compare against alternative wavelengths if color accuracy is critical for the design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree C503B series of 5-mm red and amber LEDs. The series is designed for general indication purposes, offering reliable performance in discrete lighting applications. The RAN suffix typically denotes the amber color variant within this product line.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Cree amber LEDs in the same 5 mm package family. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical characteristics before substituting. Check for equivalent luminous intensity and viewing angle specifications.
