SML-E12M8WT86

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The SML-E12M8WT86 is a single-color surface-mount LED manufactured by ROHM Semiconductor. It features a yellow emitting color with a dominant wavelength of 590 nm and a typical luminous intensity of 63 mcd. The device operates at a forward current of 20 mA with a forward voltage of 2.2 V, dissipating 54 mW of power. Housed in a 0603 (1608 metric) package measuring 1.6 mm x 0.8 mm with a height of 0.36 mm, it utilizes a milky white diffused lens. The component supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and is supplied in tape and reel packaging.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Compact 0603 surface-mount form factor for space-constrained designs
• Milky white diffused lens for uniform light distribution
• High reliability construction suitable for industrial applications

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Home appliances
• Industrial equipment
• Healthcare devices
• Office equipment

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official datasheet to ensure correct binning and packaging configuration. Confirm that the milky white lens variant matches the design requirements for light diffusion. Check current production status as availability may vary. Ensure ESD handling protocols are followed during assembly due to moisture sensitivity classification.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard yellow indicator is required in a 0603 footprint. The 2.2 V forward voltage aligns with common logic-level driving circuits. The diffused lens option is preferred over clear lenses for reducing glare in user interfaces. Verify thermal dissipation capabilities within the target enclosure environment.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the SML-E1 series of single-color LEDs from ROHM Semiconductor. The series is characterized by high brightness and reliability using original device technology. It complements other variants in the lineup that offer different colors or lens types within the same mechanical package dimensions.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include SML-E12Y8WT86 for yellow emission with similar characteristics. Other compatible options within the SML-D1 or SML-A1 series may be considered if pin compatibility and electrical parameters match the design constraints.
