OVSA1ABC2R8

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The OVSA1ABC2R8 is a single-color amber LED from the Optek series, designed for surface-mount applications. It features a PLCC-4 package with dimensions of 3.20mm x 2.70mm and a maximum height of 1.95mm. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 624nm with a viewing angle of 120 degrees. Key electrical parameters include a forward voltage of 2.1V and a forward current rating of 20mA. The optical intensity is rated at 100mcd, while the power rating is 42mW. The lens is colorless and water-clear with a round flat shape. It complies with RoHS3 standards and has a moisture sensitivity level of 5A.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Provides high-brightness amber illumination within a compact SMD footprint
• Features a wide 120-degree viewing angle for broad visibility
• Utilizes a water-clear lens to maximize light transmission efficiency

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Status indicators on electronic control panels
• Backlighting for push-button switches
• Visual signaling in industrial machinery interfaces

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm exact binning and packaging configurations. Ensure compatibility with standard reflow soldering profiles for PLCC-4 packages. Confirm moisture sensitivity handling requirements prior to assembly to prevent package damage during manufacturing processes.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a distinct amber visual signal is required in space-constrained designs. The 120-degree beam width suits applications needing wide-area visibility without complex optics. Compare forward voltage requirements against available drive circuits to ensure proper current limiting resistor selection for reliable operation.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the OVSA1 family of single-color LEDs manufactured by TT Electronics/Optek Technology. The series offers various color options including red, green, blue, and amber, all sharing similar mechanical dimensions and mounting characteristics for design flexibility across different product lines.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other PLCC-4 amber LEDs such as those from Vishay or Everlight if supply constraints exist. Verify that substitute components match the 3.20mm x 2.70mm footprint and 1.95mm height limits to ensure board compatibility.
