C566C-AFE-CU0V0342

Overview

The C566C-AFE-CU0V0342 is a single-color amber LED from the Screen Master series by Cree LED. It features a through-hole T-1 3/4 (5 mm) oval lens package with dimensions of 5.2 mm x 4.6 mm and a height of 7.8 mm. The component emits light at a wavelength of 591 nm with an intensity of 2500 mcd. Electrical characteristics include a forward voltage of 2.1 V at a test current of 20 mA, resulting in a power rating of 130 mW. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and offers a viewing angle of 70° x 35°.

Feature Summary

• Features a tinted oval dome lens design for directional light emission.
• Utilizes a standard T-1 3/4 (5 mm) through-hole radial lead configuration.
• Provides high-intensity amber illumination suitable for visual indicators.

Applications

• Panel status indicators
• Control interface lighting
• Instrument cluster displays

Procurement Notes

Verify component availability as this specific part number may be subject to discontinuation or limited stock. Confirm RoHS compliance details directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors before finalizing procurement plans. Ensure that the ordering suffix matches the required packaging format, such as Ammo Pack, to align with assembly line requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a specific 591 nm amber wavelength and 2500 mcd intensity are required for panel mounting applications. Consider the 2.1 V forward voltage drop for circuit design calculations. Verify that the 70° x 35° viewing angle meets visibility requirements. Check for alternative packages if surface-mount solutions are needed instead of through-hole.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Screen Master family of LEDs, which are designed for general indication purposes. The C566C series utilizes a 5 mm oval form factor, distinguishing it from round 5 mm variants. It represents a standard discrete LED solution for industrial and commercial equipment requiring reliable visual signaling.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Consult official Cree LED resources for potential parameter-equivalent alternatives if this specific model is discontinued.
