C503C-WAN-CCADA231

Overview

The C503C-WAN-CCADA231 is a 5 mm (T-1 3/4) through-hole white LED from the Cree LED series. It features a cool white color temperature with a typical value of 9000 K and a minimum of 4600 K. The component has a forward voltage of 4 V, a maximum forward current of 30 mA, and a power dissipation rating of 120 mW. Luminous intensity ranges from 14,400 to 32,900 mcd. It utilizes a clear lens with a 15-degree viewing angle and complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Provides superior light output for excellent readability in sunlight
• Ensures extremely stable light output over long periods
• Constructed with advanced optical grade epoxy for high temperature and moisture resistance

Applications

• Torch lighting
• Light strip illumination
• Channel letter signage
• Retail display lighting

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm exact luminous intensity binning and color temperature tolerances. Ensure compatibility with existing thermal management designs given the 120 mW power dissipation limit. Confirm RoHS compliance status for your target market regulations before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high brightness and sunlight readability are required for indicator or signage applications. The 5 mm T-1 3/4 package allows for standard PCB mounting. Consider the 15-degree beam angle for focused illumination needs rather than wide-area lighting. Verify that the 4 V forward voltage aligns with the driving circuit's supply capabilities.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree LED 5mm Round LED family, designed for demanding lighting environments. The series is characterized by its use of optical grade epoxy to withstand harsh conditions. It serves as a reliable solution for applications requiring consistent performance and high visibility under direct sunlight exposure.
