IN-S42ETR

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The IN-S42ETR is a red single-color surface-mount LED from Inolux, housed in a compact 0402 (1005 metric) package with dimensions of 1.0 mm x 0.5 mm x 0.25 mm. It features a clear lens and emits light at a dominant wavelength of 624 nm. The component operates with a typical forward voltage of 2 V to 2.4 V and a test current of 20 mA. It provides a luminous intensity of 71.5 mcd and offers wide viewing angles of 75° and 140°. Designed for reliability, it supports an operating temperature range from -30°C to +85°C.

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and RoHS compliance status directly with Inolux or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the 0402 footprint matches your PCB design requirements. Ensure handling procedures account for moisture sensitivity levels as indicated in the official documentation. Cross-reference the electrical parameters against your circuit design limits to ensure compatibility.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile red indicator is required for high-density surface mount assemblies. The 0402 package size allows for miniaturization compared to larger LED packages. Consider the 71.5 mcd intensity and 624 nm wavelength for visibility needs. Evaluate the 75°/140° viewing angles against the mechanical housing constraints of the final product to ensure optimal light emission directionality.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

The IN-S42ETR belongs to the IN-S42ET series of SMD LEDs manufactured by Inolux Corporation. This series utilizes a standard 0402 PCB type package, offering various color options including red, blue, green, amber, and white. The series is designed to meet industry-specific demands for compact lighting solutions, providing consistency in mechanical dimensions across different spectral outputs within the same family.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include other colors such as IN-S42ETB (Blue), IN-S42ETG (Green), and IN-S42ETA (Amber). These parts share identical mechanical dimensions and mounting characteristics. Verify electrical parameter compatibility if replacing with different colors, as forward voltage and luminous intensity may vary significantly between spectral outputs.
