LTW-C191TL5

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The LTW-C191TL5 is a surface-mount white LED from Lite-On Inc., designed for automated PC board assembly. It utilizes InGaN technology to produce white light with a typical luminous intensity of 78 mcd. The component features a rectangular lens and operates at a forward voltage of approximately 2.93 V. It is housed in a compact 0603 (1608 metric) package, measuring 1.6 mm in length, 0.8 mm in width, and 0.55 mm in height. The device supports a viewing angle of 130 degrees and is supplied on reels.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Super thin profile construction suitable for space-constrained designs
• Ultra bright InGaN white chip LED technology
• Rectangular lens shape with flat top design

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Automated PC board assembly applications
• Miniature indicator lighting
• Backlighting for small electronic devices

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific binning code suffix when ordering, as it determines chromaticity coordinates. Confirm moisture sensitivity handling requirements during storage and reflow soldering processes. Ensure compatibility with standard SMD pick-and-place equipment due to the reel packaging format. Check for any product change notifications regarding recent manufacturing updates.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a low-profile white light source in a standard 0603 footprint. Consider the 78 mcd intensity rating against system brightness requirements. Evaluate the 0.55 mm height constraint for strict vertical space limitations. Verify thermal management needs relative to the specified operating temperature range.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the LTW series of surface-mount LEDs from Lite-On Optoelectronics. The series offers various colors and intensities within standardized miniature packages. The LTW-C191TL5 specifically addresses the demand for high-brightness white illumination in compact consumer electronics and industrial control panels where space is limited.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 0603 white LEDs from Lite-On such as the LTW-C191HB, which offers higher intensity ranges. Cross-reference mechanical dimensions and electrical characteristics carefully before substitution to ensure PCB footprint and circuit compatibility.
