CLM2B-AEW-CYAB0263

Overview

The CLM2B-AEW-CYAB0263 is a single-color amber LED from the Cree XLamp CLM2B family. It features a PLCC-4 surface-mount package with dimensions of 3.2 mm length, 2.7 mm width, and 1.95 mm height. The device emits light at a peak wavelength of 591 nm with a viewing angle of 120 degrees. Electrical characteristics include a forward voltage of 2.4 V at a maximum forward current of 50 mA, resulting in a power rating of 210 mW. The optical output provides an intensity of 2.8 cd. It operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +100 °C.

Feature Summary

• Amber emission at 591 nm for high visibility applications
• Standard PLCC-4 SMD package for automated assembly compatibility
• Wide 120-degree viewing angle for uniform illumination
• High reliability performance suitable for demanding environments

Applications

• Automotive exterior lighting indicators
• Industrial control panel status signals
• Traffic signal and warning lights
• General purpose indicator lamps

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CYAB0263 against the official Cree datasheet to confirm binning and packaging details. Ensure the supplier provides RoHS compliance documentation. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements during storage and reflow soldering processes prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard PLCC-4 footprint is required for amber signaling. The 50 mA drive current suits low-power indicator designs. Consider the 120-degree beam spread for wide-area visibility needs. Verify thermal management capabilities if operating near the maximum junction temperature limit.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cree XLamp CLM2B series, which offers lighting-class reliability in a compact SMD form factor. The series is designed for consistent chromaticity and high luminous intensity. It serves as a drop-in replacement for legacy PLCC-2/4 amber LEDs while providing improved performance metrics.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the CLM2B family or compatible PLCC-4 packages from other manufacturers. Ensure spectral match and electrical parameters align before substitution.
