C5SMF-AJF-CS0V0251

Overview

The C5SMF-AJF-CS0V0251 is a Screen Master® 5-mm oval LED manufactured by Cree LED, designed for through-hole mounting. It emits amber light with a wavelength of 630 nm and features a clear lens in a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) package. Key electrical parameters include a forward voltage of 2.1 V at a forward current of 20 mA, with a power rating of 130 mW. The component has physical dimensions of 5.1 mm length, 3.7 mm width, and 7 mm height, operating within a temperature range of -40°C to +95°C.

Feature Summary

• Oval-shaped radiation pattern optimized for wide viewing angles
• High luminous intensity suitable for variable-message signs
• Through-hole construction for standard PCB integration

Applications

• Variable-message signs
• Passenger-information signs
• General indication lighting

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and manufacturer documentation to confirm all electrical and mechanical specifications match the required design constraints. Ensure that the ordering suffix corresponds exactly to the desired optical and packaging attributes, as variations may exist within the product family. Cross-reference official Cree LED resources for the most current compliance and environmental data.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an oval beam profile and high visibility are required for signage applications. Consider the 630 nm amber wavelength and 2.1 V forward voltage drop against circuit requirements. Evaluate the 100x40 degree viewing angle suitability for the intended installation geometry and ambient lighting conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Screen Master® 5-mm Oval LED family from Cree LED. These devices are engineered specifically for high-brightness indication in transportation and information display systems. The series offers various color options and lens styles while maintaining consistent form factors for easy replacement and design standardization across different sign types.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Cree LED substitution guides for compatible alternatives within the C5SMF series. Verify that any substitute maintains the same T-1 3/4 package dimensions and electrical characteristics to ensure mechanical and thermal compatibility without redesigning the host assembly.
