IN-P18ATA

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The IN-P18ATA is an amber surface-mount LED from Inolux, utilizing AlInGaP/InGaN technology. It features a top-view configuration in a compact 0603 (1808 PLCC) package measuring 1.8 x 0.8 x 0.55 mm. The device emits at a typical wavelength of 605 nm with a viewing angle of 120 degrees. Electrical characteristics include a forward voltage range of 1.8 to 2.6 VDC and a luminous intensity between 180 and 450 mcd. It is designed for high brightness and reliability in low-profile applications.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Top-view emission geometry for enhanced visibility
• Compact 1808 PLCC package suitable for space-constrained designs
• High brightness output using AlInGaP/InGaN material system

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Status indication on consumer electronics
• Backlighting for thin devices
• Panel indicators in industrial equipment

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific binning codes for luminous intensity and wavelength when ordering, as these parameters vary within the specified ranges. Confirm that the 0603 footprint matches your PCB design requirements. Ensure current limiting resistors are calculated based on the maximum forward voltage of 2.6V to prevent damage. Check RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a standard amber indicator in a minimal footprint. The 120-degree viewing angle provides wide visibility compared to narrow-beam alternatives. Consider the thermal management capabilities of the substrate if operating near maximum ratings. Compare against other colors in the IN-P18AT series if different signal coding is needed.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the IN-P18AT series of SMD LEDs from Inolux. The series offers multiple emission colors including red, green, and white, all sharing the same physical dimensions and package style. This consistency allows designers to maintain uniform board layouts while changing signal colors. The series emphasizes high reliability and low profile construction.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 0603 PLCC footprint and 1.8x0.8x0.55mm dimensions. Verify compatible forward voltage and peak wavelength for visual consistency. Check if alternative manufacturers offer equivalent luminous intensity bins. Ensure the replacement supports top-view mounting orientation.
