C5SMF-BJF-CT34Q3T1

Overview

C5SMF-BJF-CT34Q3T1 is a single-color blue LED from the Screen Master family, designed for through-hole mounting in T-1 3/4 (5 mm) oval packages. It features a 470 nm wavelength and 3.4 V forward voltage at 20 mA test current. The component delivers high luminous intensity with an oval radiation pattern of 100° x 40°. Rated for operation between -40°C and +95°C, it utilizes a tinted lens to enhance visibility in bright environments.

Feature Summary

• Oval-shaped radiation pattern optimized for wide viewing angles
• High luminous intensity suitable for outdoor applications
• Tinted lens design improves contrast in sunlight

Applications

• Variable-message signs
• Passenger-information displays
• Outdoor status indicators

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity by cross-referencing manufacturer part numbers against official Cree LED documentation. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for Product Change Notifications (PCNs) that may affect specifications or packaging. Ensure sourcing channels are authorized distributors to guarantee supply chain integrity and traceability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high brightness and wide viewing angles are required for signage applications. The oval package shape provides directional light distribution distinct from standard dome LEDs. Consider the operating temperature range and forward voltage requirements for circuit design compatibility.

Part Context

This component belongs to the C5SMF Screen Master series, which specializes in 5-mm oval LEDs engineered for variable-message and passenger information signs. The series emphasizes high luminous intensity and specific radiation patterns to ensure readability in various lighting conditions.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official datasheets for compatible substitutes within the C5SMF family. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical parameters before substitution.
