C503C-WAN-CBADA151

Overview

The C503C-WAN-CBADA151 is a 5 mm round through-hole LED emitting cool white light. It features a 15-degree viewing angle and an elliptical lens shape. The component operates with a forward voltage of 4 V and a maximum forward current of 30 mA. Its luminous intensity reaches up to 46,100 mcd, supported by a power dissipation rating of 120 mW. The device complies with RoHS standards and functions within a temperature range of -40 °C to 95 °C.

Feature Summary

• Advanced optical-grade epoxy encapsulation provides superior resistance to high temperatures and moisture for reliable outdoor performance.
• UV inhibitors integrated into the encapsulation resin minimize degradation effects from long-term direct sunlight exposure.
• High luminous intensity output ensures excellent readability in bright ambient conditions and sunlight.

Applications

• Electronic Signs & Signals (ESS)
• Motorway Signs
• Variable-Message Sign (VMS)
• Advertising Signs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Cree documentation to confirm exact binning and color coordinates. Ensure the procurement channel sources directly from authorized distributors to guarantee authenticity. Confirm RoHS compliance status matches current regulatory requirements before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-intensity cool white illumination is required for outdoor signage applications. The 5 mm radial package suits standard PCB layouts requiring through-hole mounting. Consider the 15-degree beam angle for focused visibility needs rather than wide-area diffusion.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree 5mm Round LED family, designed for demanding outdoor environments. The series utilizes robust materials to maintain stable light output over extended periods. It serves as a direct replacement for older generation indicators requiring higher brightness and durability.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with C503C-WAS-CBBDB152 for similar white LED specifications. Verify pin compatibility and thermal characteristics when substituting with other 5mm round LED variants from different manufacturers.
