CLM1C-WKW-CWBXB453

Overview

The Cree LED CLM1C-WKW-CWBXB453 is a surface-mount white light-emitting diode housed in a PLCC-2 package. It emits cool white light with a color temperature of 5700 K and a viewing angle of 120 degrees. The component operates at a forward current of 20 mA with a typical forward voltage of 3.2 V. It delivers a luminous intensity of 2.8 cd and has a power rating of 100 mW. Physical dimensions are 3.2 mm in length, 2.7 mm in width, and 1.95 mm in height.

Feature Summary

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

Applications

• Light strips
• Channel letters
• Backlighting

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CWBXB453 against official datasheets to confirm the 5700K color temperature and 2.8 cd intensity ratings. Ensure compatibility with standard SMD reflow processes and check moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements for storage and handling prior to assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high-intensity cool white illumination in compact spaces. The PLCC-2 form factor supports automated placement. Consider the 120-degree beam spread for uniform lighting needs. Verify thermal management capabilities given the 100 mW power rating and operating temperature constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree LED CLM1C series, which features high-performance PLCC2 white LEDs. The series is designed for various environmental conditions and offers consistent performance in indicator and general lighting roles. The flat-top package variant specifically aids in optical coupling with light guides.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other CLM1C variants such as CLM1C-WKW-CWBXB153 for different intensity levels. Verify pinout and dimensional compatibility when substituting with generic PLCC-2 white LEDs from other manufacturers.
