C566D-GFF-CX14Q7S1

Overview

The C566D-GFF-CX14Q7S1 is a single-color green LED from the Screen Master series, manufactured by Cree LED. It utilizes a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) through-hole package with an oval dome lens measuring 5.2 mm x 4.6 mm. The component emits light at a wavelength of 527 nm with a luminous intensity of 6300 mcd. Electrical characteristics include a forward current of 20 mA, a forward voltage of 3.4 V, and a power rating of 140 mW. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and features a viewing angle of 70° x 30°.

Feature Summary

• Features a tinted clear oval dome lens for directional light emission
• Designed for high-brightness signage applications with enhanced reliability
• Compatible with standard through-hole mounting processes

Applications

• Transportation signage
• Message boards and information signs
• Digital displays and scoreboards

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CX14Q7S1 against official Cree LED documentation to confirm lens tint and binning specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the T-1 3/4 package. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the manufacturer's latest datasheet before integration into regulated products.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high-intensity green illumination in a standard 5mm oval form factor. Consider the 3.4 V forward voltage drop when designing drive circuits. Evaluate the 70° x 30° viewing angle against optical requirements for visibility distance and beam spread in outdoor or indoor signage environments.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C566D family of high-brightness LEDs optimized for signage. The Screen Master line offers taller lenses for improved protection and reliability compared to standard oval LEDs. It serves as a drop-in replacement for competing 70/30 oval LED designs in various display and indicator applications.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Cree LED substitution guides for verified equivalents. Generic replacements may differ in luminous intensity, wavelength tolerance, or thermal performance. Verify pinout and mechanical dimensions match the T-1 3/4 footprint before adoption.
