CLP6C-AKW-CYBB0AA3

Overview

The CLP6C-AKW-CYBB0AA3 is a surface-mount single-color LED manufactured by Cree LED, housed in a PLCC-6 package. It emits amber light with a dominant wavelength of 591 nm and features a colorless, round flat lens. The component operates at a forward current of 50 mA with a forward voltage of 2.4 V, resulting in a power rating of 240 mW. Luminous intensity is specified at 9 cd under standard test conditions. It supports SMD/SMT mounting styles and is available in reel or cut tape packaging formats.

Feature Summary

• Amber emission with 591 nm dominant wavelength
• PLCC-6 surface mount package design
• Colorless round flat lens configuration

Applications

• Indication lighting for electronic devices
• Low-power consumption outdoor applications
• Bright sunlight readable indicators

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact optical and electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment for the PLCC-6 package. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the latest datasheet before integration into production assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a compact amber indicator with high visibility. The PLCC-6 form factor allows for dense PCB layouts. Consider the 50 mA drive current and 2.4 V forward voltage when designing driver circuits. Verify thermal management requirements relative to the 240 mW power rating.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CLP6C series of single-color LEDs from Cree LED. The series utilizes a standardized PLCC-6 footprint common across various colors and intensities. The AKW suffix typically denotes amber emission within this product family structure.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other PLCC-6 amber LEDs such as CLP6C-AKW-CZ0B0AA3 for alternative brightness levels. Verify pinout compatibility and spectral consistency before substituting components in existing designs.
