C566C-BFE-CU0V0452

Overview

The C566C-BFE-CU0V0452 is a single-color blue LED from the Cree Screen Master family, designed for through-hole mounting in a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) oval package. It features a tinted lens with clear transparency and emits light at a wavelength of 470 nm. The component operates with a forward current of 20 mA and a typical forward voltage of 3.4 V, supporting a power rating of 140 mW. It provides an optical intensity of 2300 mcd with a viewing angle of 70 degrees by 35 degrees. The device functions within a temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

Feature Summary

• Features a 5 mm oval form factor with a tinted lens for standard through-hole PCB integration.
• Delivers high-intensity blue emission at 470 nm with a viewing angle of 70° x 35°.
• Designed for reliable operation across a wide industrial temperature range.

Applications

• Panel indicator lights
• Instrumentation status displays
• Control board signaling

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CU0V0452 against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact binning and availability. Cross-reference datasheets for RoHS compliance details and check for Product Change Notifications or End-of-Life notices prior to procurement. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required lens shape and electrical characteristics.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 5 mm oval footprint is required for blue indication. Consider the 3.4 V forward voltage drop for circuit design. Verify that the 20 mA test current aligns with system power constraints. Confirm the 70° x 35° viewing angle meets visibility requirements for the intended enclosure.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree Screen Master C566C series, which offers various color options including red, amber, and blue. The series utilizes a consistent T-1 3/4 package style, allowing designers to maintain uniform mechanical layouts while changing optical colors. The C566C-BFE variant specifically addresses blue spectrum needs within this established platform.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other C566C-BFE variants with different suffixes for packaging or binning, such as C566C-BFE-CU0V0341. Verify mechanical compatibility and electrical parameters before swapping. Check for updated revisions in the C566C family that may affect lead times or material composition.
