C5SMF-RJS-CT0W0BB1

Overview

The C5SMF-RJS-CT0W0BB1 is a red light-emitting diode manufactured by Cree LED. It utilizes a T-1 3/4 (5 mm) through-hole package with two pins and an oval lens shape. The device emits light at a peak wavelength of 624 nm. Key electrical parameters include a forward voltage of 2.6 V and a luminous intensity of 2.6 cd. The component is designed for standard mounting applications requiring reliable red illumination.

Feature Summary

• Features an oval-shaped radiation pattern specifically engineered for wide viewing angles in signage applications.
• Constructed with a durable 5 mm T-1 3/4 through-hole package suitable for standard PCB mounting.
• Provides high luminous intensity to ensure visibility in variable-message and passenger-information signs.

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current product family data sheet to confirm exact optical and electrical characteristics. Ensure the procurement channel sources genuine components from authorized distributors to guarantee compliance with RoHS standards and long-term reliability specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a red LED with a distinct oval beam profile is required for wide-area visibility. Compare the 2.6 V forward voltage and 2.6 cd intensity against circuit design requirements. Consider the T-1 3/4 form factor for compatibility with existing through-hole footprints in display hardware.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Screen Master 5-mm Oval LED family, which includes variants like C5SMF-AJS and C5SMF-GJS. These LEDs are optimized for high-intensity output and specific radiation patterns, distinguishing them from standard round 5 mm LEDs used in general indicator applications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include C5SMF-RJE-CT0W0BB1 and C5SMF-RJN-CT0W0BB1. Verify pinout compatibility and spectral differences before substitution. Cross-reference datasheets to ensure mechanical dimensions match the target assembly.
