C513A-MSS-CX0Z0232

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The C513A-MSS-CX0Z0232 is a 5-mm round through-hole LED manufactured by Cree LED. It emits warm white light with a typical color temperature of 3000 K and a minimum Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 80. The component features a 55-degree viewing angle and provides luminous intensity ranging from 2130 to 8200 mcd. It operates within a forward current range up to 20 mA and withstands reverse voltages up to 5 V.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Provides superior light output for excellent readability in sunlight
• Features advanced optical-grade epoxy for high-temperature and high-moisture resistance
• Delivers extremely stable light output over long periods of time
• RoHS-compliant and lead-free construction

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Torch Light
• Strip Channel Letter
• Retail Display Lighting

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CX0Z0232 against official Cree LED documentation to confirm warm white binning and CRI requirements. Ensure compatibility with existing 5-mm through-hole mounting footprints. Cross-reference datasheet revisions for any changes in optical characteristics or material composition prior to final procurement.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring reliable, high-brightness illumination in direct sunlight. The 55-degree beam angle suits focused lighting needs. Verify thermal management requirements as the device utilizes an optical-grade epoxy package suitable for demanding environmental conditions in signage and display contexts.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree LED 5-mm Round LED family, designed for general illumination and signage. It shares the standard 5-mm form factor with other variants like the WSS and WSN series but differs in color temperature and chromaticity binning specifications tailored for warm white applications.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include C513A-WSS and C513A-WSN variants within the same 5-mm round LED family. Verify that alternative parts match the required luminous intensity and color temperature specifications before integration.
