C5SMF-BJF-CR14Q3T2

Overview

The C5SMF-BJF-CR14Q3T2 is a single-color blue LED from Cree LED, designed for through-hole mounting in a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) package. It features an oval lens with dimensions of 5.1 mm x 3.7 mm and a height of 7 mm. The component emits light at a dominant wavelength of 470 nm with a forward voltage of 3.4 V at a forward current of 20 mA. It delivers a light intensity of 550 mcd and has a power rating of 140 mW. The operating temperature range spans from -40°C to +95°C.

Feature Summary

• Emits blue illumination at a 470 nm wavelength
• Utilizes a tinted oval lens for directional viewing
• Supports standard through-hole PCB assembly
• Operates reliably within extended industrial temperature ranges

Applications

• Panel indicator lights
• Instrumentation status displays
• Control board visual feedback

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CR14Q3T2 against official datasheets to confirm lens tint and binning requirements. Ensure compatibility with existing through-hole footprints. Check for end-of-life status or alternative sourcing options due to potential supply chain constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-intensity blue indication is required in a standard 5mm form factor. Consider the 100-degree by 40-degree viewing angle for visibility needs. Evaluate thermal management capabilities given the 140 mW power rating and maximum junction temperature limits.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C5SMF series of single-color LEDs, which are characterized by their robust construction and consistent optical performance. The series offers various color and lens combinations tailored for general indication purposes across consumer and industrial electronics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 5mm blue through-hole LEDs with similar electrical characteristics. Verify pin compatibility and luminous intensity equivalence before substitution.
