C512A-WNS-CZ0C0151

Overview

The C512A-WNS-CZ0C0151 is a cool white LED indicator from Cree LED, designed for through-hole mounting. It features a 5mm round radial package with a clear dome lens and a 25-degree viewing angle. The component operates at a typical forward voltage of 3.2V and emits light at a color temperature of 9000K. It delivers a luminous intensity of 20,550 mcd when tested at 20mA. The device has a maximum height of 10.30mm and complies with RoHS3 standards.

Feature Summary

• Provides high-intensity cool white illumination suitable for visual indicators
• Utilizes a standard 5mm radial through-hole package for easy integration
• Features a water-clear dome lens to optimize light distribution

Applications

• General purpose status indication in electronic equipment
• Panel mount signaling devices
• Consumer appliance control interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct lens style and binning match your design requirements. Confirm that the supplier provides official datasheets and compliance certificates such as RoHS3 documentation. Check for any recent product change notices regarding chemical dipping or labeling updates before placing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a bright, cool white indicator is required in a standard 5mm form factor. Ensure the circuit design accounts for the 3.2V forward voltage drop at the specified test current. Consider the 25-degree beam angle for directional visibility needs compared to wider-angle alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C512A series of discrete LEDs manufactured by Cree LED. The series offers various color options and lens configurations within a consistent 5mm radial footprint. It is distinct from surface-mount families like XLamp or CXA, focusing on traditional through-hole applications for reliable component-level signaling.

Replacement Considerations

The C512A-WNN-CA0C0151 is listed as a parameter-equivalent substitute from the same manufacturer.
