C566D-AFE-CV0X0252

Overview

The C566D-AFE-CV0X0252 is a single-color amber LED from the Screen Master series by Cree LED. It features a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) radial through-hole package with an oval dome lens measuring 5.2 mm x 4.6 mm. The component emits at a peak wavelength of 591 nm with a typical forward voltage of 2.1 V at 20 mA test current. It provides a light intensity of 4010 mcd and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The viewing angle is specified as 70° x 30°, and it has a maximum height of 11.90 mm.

Feature Summary

• High brightness output of 4010 mcd for clear visibility
• Diffused amber lens for uniform light distribution
• Standard T-1 3/4 through-hole mounting configuration

Applications

• Message boards and information signs
• Digital signage displays
• Advertising backlighting
• Transportation signage indicators

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to ensure compatibility with required lens diffusion and color specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level prior to assembly. Check for any recent product change notices that may affect electrical characteristics or physical dimensions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high luminous intensity is required for ambient lighting conditions. The oval shape and diffused lens are suitable for applications needing wide horizontal visibility. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the 2.1 V forward voltage drop at the intended operating current of 20 mA.
