C5SMF-BJF-CT14Q3T1

Overview

The C5SMF-BJF-CT14Q3T1 is a single-color blue LED from the Screen Master series, manufactured by Cree LED. It utilizes a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) radial through-hole package with an oval lens shape measuring 5.10 mm x 3.70 mm. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 470 nm with a typical forward voltage of 3.4 V and a test current of 20 mA. It features a clear lens transparency and delivers a luminous intensity of 811 mcd. The device has a maximum power dissipation rating of 140 mW and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +95°C.

Feature Summary

• Features a standard radial through-hole configuration suitable for automated insertion processes.
• Utilizes a clear oval lens design to provide specific viewing angle characteristics.
• Complies with RoHS3 specifications and REACH requirements for environmental safety.

Applications

• General purpose indicator lighting in electronic equipment
• Control panel status indication
• Consumer appliance front panels

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm that the received part matches the C5SMF-BJF-CT14Q3T1 designation exactly. Check datasheets for any recent Product Change Notifications (PCN) regarding material or process updates. Ensure storage conditions adhere to moisture sensitivity level 1 guidelines to prevent lead oxidation before soldering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a blue indicator with moderate intensity is required in a standard 5mm form factor. The 470 nm wavelength provides distinct visibility compared to green or red alternatives. Consider the 100° x 40° viewing angle for applications requiring directional visibility. Verify that the 3.4 V forward voltage aligns with the driving circuit's current limiting resistor calculations.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C5SMF family of oval LEDs, which are designed for high-reliability applications. The 'BJF' suffix typically denotes specific binning or lens characteristics within the blue LED lineup. This series is widely used in industrial and consumer electronics where space constraints favor the oval profile over round lenses while maintaining standard pin spacing.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. When replacing end-of-life or discontinued variants, verify mechanical compatibility including lead pitch and lens dimensions. Electrical parameters such as forward voltage and peak wavelength must be matched to ensure circuit functionality and color consistency.
