Procurement Notes

Verify component availability status as inventory levels fluctuate. Confirm RoHS compliance details prior to integration. Ensure ordering suffixes match exact optical and electrical requirements. Check for product change notifications that may affect specifications or packaging. Validate datasheet revisions against current manufacturing standards before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring precise red color rendering at 624 nm. The oval form factor suits applications needing directional light control within limited aperture spaces. Consider the 20 mA drive current for standard logic interfacing. Evaluate thermal management needs based on the 130 mW power rating. Compare luminous intensity requirements against alternative packages if higher brightness is necessary.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Screen Master family, which focuses on high-brightness solutions for display and signage markets. The C5SME series utilizes advanced semiconductor materials to deliver consistent color performance. It complements other through-hole options in the Cree LED portfolio designed for robust industrial and commercial lighting environments.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 624 nm red LEDs in similar oval through-hole packages. Verify pin compatibility and dimensional tolerances before swapping. Check forward voltage drops to ensure circuit biasing remains valid. Confirm lens transparency and viewing angle specifications match original design intent.
