LTW-21TS5

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The LTW-21TS5 is a surface-mount white LED from Lite-On Inc., housed in a 1206 (3216 metric) package measuring 3.2 mm x 1.6 mm x 0.6 mm. It features a yellow lens with a non-diffused square shape and offers a viewing angle of 70 degrees. The component operates at a forward current of 5 mA with a typical forward voltage of 2.93 V, resulting in a power rating of 70 mW. Light intensity varies by source, ranging from 28 to 180 mcd. It functions within a temperature range of -20°C to +80°C and is moisture sensitive.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Surface-mount design suitable for automated assembly processes
• Yellow lens construction providing high transparency without diffusion
• Standardized 1206 footprint dimensions for compact circuit integration

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Electronic device status indication
• Panel indicator lighting

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific light intensity value required for your application, as documentation references vary between 28 mcd and 180 mcd. Confirm moisture sensitivity handling procedures during storage and soldering. Ensure the 1206 footprint matches your PCB layout constraints. Check for RoHS compliance details before finalizing procurement specifications.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard white SMD LED is needed for general indication purposes. The 1206 package size balances visibility with board space efficiency. Consider the 70-degree viewing angle for directional lighting needs. Verify that the 5 mA operating current aligns with your system's power budget and drive capabilities.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Lite-On's discrete LED indication series, designed for reliable performance in consumer and industrial electronics. The LTW-21TS5 utilizes standard semiconductor manufacturing techniques to ensure consistent color and brightness characteristics across production batches.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 1206 white LEDs from Lite-On or compatible manufacturers. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substitution.
