C566C-RFF-CU0W0BB1

Overview

The C566C-RFF-CU0W0BB1 is a single-color red LED from the Cree Screen Master family, designed for through-hole mounting in T-1 3/4 (5 mm) oval packages. It emits light at a peak wavelength of 621 nm with a tinted lens and clear transparency. The component operates with a forward current of 20 mA and a forward voltage of 2.1 V, rated for 130 mW power dissipation. It delivers an optical intensity of 2200 mcd with a viewing angle of 70 degrees by 35 degrees. The unit measures 5.2 mm in length, 4.6 mm in width, and 7.8 mm in height, functioning reliably within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Features an oval dome lens shape with tinted coloration and clear transparency for optimized light emission.
• Designed for standard through-hole installation using a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) package footprint.
• Provides high-intensity red illumination suitable for visual indicator applications.

Applications

• Visual status indicators in electronic equipment
• Control panel signaling systems
• Instrumentation display modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CU0W0BB1 against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact optical and electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB layouts requiring T-1 3/4 through-hole spacing. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the latest datasheet before integration into regulated products.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a red oval LED with specific 70x35 degree viewing angles is required. Consider the 2.1 V forward voltage drop for circuit design calculations. Evaluate thermal management needs given the 130 mW power rating and operating temperature limits up to 85°C.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C566C series of Screen Master LEDs manufactured by Cree LED. The series specializes in oval-shaped, through-hole single-color LEDs commonly used in industrial and consumer electronics for reliable visual feedback.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other C566C-RFF variants or similar T-1 3/4 red LEDs from Cree LED. Verify pinout, spectral output, and mechanical dimensions match before substitution.
