C5SMF-AJN-CS0V0251

Overview

The C5SMF-AJN-CS0V0251 is a standard through-hole LED from the Screen Master family, manufactured by Cree LED. It features an amber illumination color with a peak wavelength of 630 nm and a forward voltage of 2.1 V at a forward current of 20 mA. The component utilizes a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) oval package with dimensions of 5.1 mm in length, 3.7 mm in width, and 7 mm in height. It offers a viewing angle of 100 degrees by 40 degrees and delivers a luminous intensity of 2100 mcd. The device operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +95 °C and has a power rating of 130 mW.

Feature Summary

• Designed specifically for variable-message signs and passenger-information displays
• Features an oval-shaped radiation pattern optimized for wide-angle visibility
• Provides high luminous intensity suitable for clear visual indication

Applications

• Variable-message signs
• Passenger-information signs
• Industrial status indicators

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CS0V0251 against official Cree datasheets to confirm the exact optical and electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for T-1 3/4 packages. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when wide-viewing angles are required for signage applications. The oval lens shape provides distinct directional light distribution compared to round LEDs. Consider the 2.1 V forward voltage drop for circuit design and ensure the operating temperature range meets environmental requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Screen Master 5-mm Oval LED series by Cree LED. These components are engineered for high-brightness indication in public information systems. The series emphasizes durability and consistent optical performance for demanding display environments.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other C5SMF variants such as C5SMF-AJS or C5SMF-AJE for similar form factors. Verify that substitute parts match the 100x40 degree viewing angle and amber color specifications.
