C5SMF-AJS-CU0V0342

Overview

The C5SMF-AJS-CU0V0342 is a single-color amber LED from the Screen Master family, designed for through-hole mounting. It features a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) oval package with dimensions of 5.1 mm x 3.7 mm and a maximum height of 10.95 mm. The component emits light at a primary wavelength of 591 nm with a typical forward voltage of 2.1 V at a test current of 20 mA. It provides a luminous intensity of 1615 mcd and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Features an oval-shaped radiation pattern optimized for wide viewing angles in signage applications
• Designed specifically for variable-message signs and passenger-information displays
• Utilizes a clear tinted lens to ensure high luminous intensity output

Applications

• Variable-message signs
• Passenger-information signs
• Public transportation display systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against official Cree documentation to confirm exact optical and electrical characteristics. Ensure that the ordering information matches the required wavelength and intensity specifications for the intended application. Cross-reference datasheet details to validate compatibility with existing circuit designs before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing indicator circuits requiring high visibility in public information displays. The oval shape and specific wavelength provide distinct visual signaling compared to standard round LEDs. Consider the forward voltage drop and thermal management requirements for continuous operation in enclosed signage housings.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Screen Master series of 5-mm oval LEDs manufactured by Cree LED. The series is engineered for high-brightness performance in demanding outdoor and indoor signage environments. The oval geometry differentiates it from traditional circular LEDs, offering unique beam distribution properties suitable for large-format text and graphic displays.
