C566D-RFE-CV34QBB2

Overview

The C566D-RFE-CV34QBB2 is a single-color red LED from the Screen Master series by Cree LED. It utilizes a through-hole mounting style with a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) oval package. The component emits red light at a wavelength of 621 nm, featuring a luminous intensity of 3200 mcd and a viewing angle of 70 degrees x 30 degrees. Electrical characteristics include a forward voltage of 2.1 V and a forward current of 20 mA, with a power rating of 130 mW. The lens is tinted and clear, measuring 5.2 mm in length and 4.6 mm in width.

Feature Summary

• Features an oval lens design for specific visual applications
• Provides high luminous intensity for clear visibility
• Supports standard through-hole PCB assembly

Applications

• Indicator lights in electronic equipment
• Visual signaling in control panels
• Status indication in industrial machinery

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number against official manufacturer documentation to ensure compatibility with circuit requirements. Confirm that the specified forward voltage and current ratings align with the target application's power supply constraints. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the end product. Ensure the through-hole package dimensions match the printed circuit board layout specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a red indicator with high brightness is required for through-hole designs. Consider the 70-degree by 30-degree viewing angle for optimal visibility orientation. Evaluate the 2.1 V forward voltage drop against available drive voltages. Compare the 3200 mcd intensity against alternative LEDs if higher or lower brightness levels are needed for the specific enclosure or ambient lighting conditions.
