CLM2C-ACA-CYBA0253

Overview

The CLM2C-ACA-CYBA0253 is a single-color amber LED from the Cree LED CLM2C-RCA/ACA series. It features a PLCC-4 surface-mount package with dimensions of 3.2 mm in length, 2.8 mm in width, and 3.76 mm in height. The device emits light at a dominant wavelength of 591 nm with a viewing angle of 30 degrees. Key electrical parameters include a forward current of 20 mA and a forward voltage of 2 V. The optical intensity is rated at 1800 mcd (1.8 cd). It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C and is classified as MSL 5a.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes a compact PLCC-4 SMD package for efficient board space utilization.
• Features a non-diffused dome lens for focused light emission.
• Designed for high reliability in architectural lighting environments.

Applications

• Channel letter signage
• Architectural lighting
• Indicator illumination

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CYBA0253 against official datasheets to confirm the exact wavelength and binning requirements. Ensure handling procedures account for MSL 5a moisture sensitivity classification. Confirm that the PLCC-4 footprint matches the target PCB design before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile amber indicator is required for surface-mount assembly. The 30-degree viewing angle suits applications needing directed light rather than wide dispersion. Consider the 2V forward voltage drop for circuit power budgeting and thermal management calculations during the design phase.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CLM2C-RCA/ACA family, which are 1-in-1 SMD LEDs manufactured by Cree LED. These components are engineered specifically for channel letter and architectural lighting applications, offering a balance of brightness and form factor suitable for modern display systems.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with existing footprints if considering alternative amber PLCC-4 LEDs from other manufacturers.
