SM1210BC-SR/HG

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The SM1210BC-SR/HG is a surface-mount bi-color LED from Bivar Inc., housed in an industry-standard 1311 package. It integrates two chips within one component, featuring a water clear rectangular lens and a wide viewing angle of 130 degrees. The device emits super red at 640 nm and high-efficiency green at 568 nm. Electrical characteristics include a forward current of 20 mA for both colors, with typical forward voltages of 1.9 V for red and 2.0 V for green. The unit supports RoHS compliance and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +80°C.
