C513A-MSS-CV0Y0131

Overview

The C513A-MSS-CV0Y0131 is a warm white light-emitting diode from Cree LED's C513A series. It utilizes a 5mm round radial through-hole package with two leads. The component features a clear lens and emits at a color temperature of 2800 K. Key electrical parameters include a forward current rating of 20 mA, a luminous intensity of 2130 mcd, and a viewing angle of 55 degrees.

Feature Summary

• Warm white emission profile optimized for specific lighting applications
• Standard 5mm round radial through-hole form factor for easy integration
• Clear lens design to maximize light transmission

Applications

• General indication lighting
• Discrete LED indicator modules
• Low-voltage status signaling circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix against official Cree LED documentation to confirm bin codes for color and intensity. Ensure the procurement channel provides genuine components with traceable manufacturing data. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributor catalogs to confirm availability and compliance with RoHS standards before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 5mm through-hole warm white LED is required. Consider the 2800 K color temperature for applications needing a warmer appearance compared to standard white LEDs. Evaluate the 2130 mcd intensity against visibility requirements in the target environment. Confirm that the 20 mA forward current aligns with the driving circuit capabilities.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C513A series of 5mm round white LEDs manufactured by Cree LED. The series is designed to simplify designs and lower system costs while delivering reliable performance. The MSS suffix typically denotes a specific intensity bin within the product line, ensuring consistency across production batches.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 5mm warm white LEDs from manufacturers like Vishay or Osram, provided they match the 2800 K color temperature, 20 mA current rating, and 55-degree viewing angle. Verify pin compatibility and mechanical dimensions before substitution.
