C535A-WJS-CV0W0231

Overview

The C535A-WJS-CV0W0231 is a 5mm round through-hole LED emitting cool white light with a color temperature of 9000 K. It features a T-1 3/4 (5mm) package and two pins for standard insertion mounting. The component delivers a luminous intensity of 2750 mcd at a forward current of 20 mA, with a viewing angle of 110 degrees. The forward voltage is specified at 3.2 V. This device is designed for general illumination and indicator applications requiring high brightness in a compact form factor.

Feature Summary

• Emits cool white light with a 9000 K color temperature
• Features a 5mm round lens shape for standard through-hole mounting
• Provides high luminous intensity of 2750 mcd
• Offers a wide 110-degree viewing angle

Applications

• General illumination lighting fixtures
• Electronic equipment status indicators
• Backlighting for displays and panels
• Consumer electronics signal indication

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CV0W0231 to ensure compatibility with required color temperature and intensity specifications. Confirm that the 5mm through-hole package aligns with existing PCB footprints. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly. Ensure the 3.2 V forward voltage matches the driving circuit design constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a bright, cool white indicator is needed in a standard 5mm housing. The 110-degree viewing angle provides broad visibility compared to narrower beam LEDs. Consider the 20 mA forward current requirement for driver selection. Compare against other Cree 5mm variants if different color temperatures or intensities are required for the specific application context.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree 5mm Round LED series, which offers various color options and intensities in a standardized T-1 3/4 package. The C535A prefix typically denotes the green wavelength base, but the suffix determines the specific phosphor blend for white emission. This series is widely used in industrial and consumer electronics due to its reliability and standardized mechanical dimensions.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other manufacturers' 5mm cool white LEDs with similar 9000 K color temperature and 2750 mcd intensity. Verify pinout compatibility and forward voltage tolerance before swapping. Alternative Cree parts like C535A-WJN-CV0W0231 may offer slight variations in intensity or binning.
