C566D-BFE-CV14Q4S2

Overview

The C566D-BFE-CV14Q4S2 is a single-color blue LED from Cree LED, designed for through-hole mounting in a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) oval package. It operates at a forward current of 20 mA with a forward voltage of 3.4 V and a power rating of 140 mW. The component emits light at a wavelength of 470 nm with an intensity of 2300 mcd. The tinted lens measures 5.2 mm x 4.6 mm, providing a viewing angle of 70° x 30°. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Oval lens design for specific illumination patterns
• Through-hole construction for robust mechanical attachment
• High-intensity blue emission for clear visibility

Applications

• Panel indicator lights
• Status signaling devices
