EAST1608BA0

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The EAST1608BA0 is a single-color blue light-emitting diode manufactured by Everlight Electronics Co Ltd. It features a surface-mount design in a 0603 (1608 metric) package with dimensions of 1.60mm length, 0.80mm width, and a maximum height of 0.90mm. The device emits blue light at a peak wavelength of 471nm with a clear colorless lens. Typical forward voltage is 3.4V, and it operates at a test current of 5mA. The component has a viewing angle of 100 degrees and is suitable for automated placement equipment.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Surface-mount LED configuration compatible with automatic placement equipment
• Blue emission with clear water-clear lens for standard indication
• Compact 0603 footprint designed for space-constrained PCB layouts

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Panel indicator lights
• Status indication in consumer electronics
• Instrumentation front panels

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and revision level against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to ensure compatibility with current production requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) ratings prior to soldering process integration. Check for any product change notices or obsolescence announcements from Everlight Electronics to avoid supply chain disruptions during manufacturing.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact blue indicator is required for surface-mount assembly processes. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the typical forward voltage of 3.4V at the specified test current. Consider the 100-degree viewing angle for visibility requirements and verify that the 0603 package dimensions fit within the designated PCB footprint constraints.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the EAST1608 series of single-color LEDs from Everlight Electronics. The series offers various color options in a standardized 0603 surface-mount package. The EAST1608BA0 specifically provides blue light output, distinguishing it from other variants like the yellow-green EAST1608GA0 or red EAST1608RA7 within the same family.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 0603 blue LEDs from different manufacturers if pinout and electrical characteristics match. Verify spectral power distribution and luminous intensity requirements before swapping brands. Cross-reference mechanical dimensions to ensure board compatibility.
