TLUO2401

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The TLUO2401 is a single-color red LED from Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division, designed for indication purposes. It features a diffused lens with a dominant wavelength of 619nm and a viewing angle of 40 degrees. The component operates at a typical forward voltage of 2V with a test current of 10mA, producing luminous intensity between 4.0 and 5.0 mcd. It utilizes a radial through-hole mounting type within a 1.8mm MiniPlast package.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Diffused red lens for wide visibility
• Radial through-hole construction
• Standard MiniPlast 1.8mm package

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Panel indicator lights
• Status indication in consumer electronics
• General purpose visual signaling

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix matches the required luminous intensity and wavelength specifications. Confirm that the radial lead configuration aligns with the target PCB layout requirements. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 standards as documented in the official datasheet before finalizing procurement.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, low-power red indicator is required for general applications. The 40-degree viewing angle provides adequate visibility for panel mounting. Consider the 2V forward voltage drop for circuit design compatibility with standard logic levels.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Vishay's standard LED product series, specifically utilizing the MiniPlast package format. It serves as a discrete optical component for visual feedback in electronic systems, distinct from integrated sensor or driver solutions offered by the same manufacturer.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 1.8mm radial red LEDs with similar forward voltage and luminous intensity characteristics. Verify pinout compatibility and mechanical dimensions before substitution.
