CLM1C-WKW-CWBXA453

Overview

The CLM1C-WKW-CWBXA453 is a white surface-mount LED from the Cree LED CLM1C series, housed in a PLCC-2 package. It emits cool white light with a color temperature of 6800 K and a typical luminous intensity of 1800 mcd at a forward current of 20 mA. The device features a 120-degree viewing angle and operates with a forward voltage of 3.2 V. Its physical dimensions are 3.2 mm in length, 2.7 mm in width, and 2.05 mm in height. The component is RoHS compliant and designed for SMD/SMT mounting applications.

Feature Summary

• High-intensity light output within an industry-standard PLCC-2 package
• Wide 120-degree viewing angle for broad illumination coverage
• Flat-top lens design facilitates mating with light pipes for customized lighting solutions

Applications

• Light strips
• Channel letters
• Backlighting

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm exact binning parameters such as chromaticity coordinates and luminous intensity ranges. Ensure compatibility with standard PLCC-2 footprints during PCB layout. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements prior to assembly to prevent package damage during reflow soldering processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard PLCC-2 footprint is required for white indication or low-power illumination. The 6800 K color temperature provides a cool white appearance suitable for general signaling. Consider the 20 mA forward current rating for driver circuit design. Verify that the 1800 mcd intensity meets visibility requirements for the intended enclosure or optical system.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree LED CLM1C series, which offers high-performance white LEDs in compact packages. The series is engineered for reliability in various environmental conditions. The CLM1C form factor allows for easy integration into existing designs utilizing standard PLCC-2 pads, supporting both through-hole and surface-mount manufacturing techniques.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Cree LED documentation for verified substitute part numbers within the CLM1C family or equivalent PLCC-2 white LEDs. Cross-referencing requires matching electrical characteristics and mechanical dimensions.
