HSMD-C110

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The HSMD-C110 is a single-color orange LED from the Broadcom HSMD series, designed for surface-mount technology. It features a side-looker package with dimensions of 3.2 mm in length, 1 mm in width, and 1.5 mm in height. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 604 nm with a luminous intensity of 8 mcd. Electrical characteristics include a forward voltage of 2.2 V and a forward current rating of 20 mA, resulting in a power rating of 65 mW. The lens is colorless, non-diffused, and dome-shaped, providing a viewing angle of 130 degrees. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Side-viewing orientation for visibility on densely populated PCBs
• Non-diffused clear lens for direct light emission
• RoHS compliant construction

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Panel status indicators
• Instrumentation displays
• Consumer electronics front panels

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version when sourcing, as manufacturing sites or minor specifications may change over time. Confirm moisture sensitivity handling requirements during storage and reflow soldering processes. Ensure the selected packaging format (Reel, Cut Tape, or MouseReel) aligns with automated assembly equipment capabilities. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number directly with official Broadcom documentation to avoid counterfeit components.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a side-emitting form factor is required for visibility behind bezels or in tight spaces. The orange spectrum at 604 nm provides high contrast for status indication. Consider the 8 mcd intensity level against ambient lighting conditions to ensure adequate visibility. The standard 20 mA drive current is compatible with most general-purpose microcontroller GPIO pins without additional buffering.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This device belongs to the HSMD family of surface-mount LEDs, which are characterized by their compact side-looker design. Unlike top-emitting variants, these components allow for lower profile installations while maintaining visibility. The series offers various colors, with the C110 suffix specifically denoting the orange wavelength configuration within Broadcom's standardized SMD LED portfolio.
