WP117GYWT

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The Kingbright WP117GYWT is a bi-color LED component featuring green and yellow segments within a 2x5mm through-hole package. It operates with a forward current of 20 mA and distinct forward voltages of 2.1 V for the green segment and 2.2 V for the yellow segment. The device emits light at peak wavelengths of 568 nm (green) and 588 nm (yellow), with diffused lens optics providing a wide viewing angle of 110 degrees. Luminous intensity is rated at 6 mcd, and the power rating reaches 75 mW. It functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Bi-color configuration combining green and yellow LEDs in a single dual-segment package
• Diffused lens design ensures a wide 110-degree viewing angle for enhanced visibility
• Through-hole mounting style suitable for standard PCB assembly processes

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Status indication in electronic equipment
• Power supply signal indicators
• Control panel visual feedback systems

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific binning requirements for luminous intensity and wavelength consistency during procurement. Confirm that the 2x5mm package dimensions align with the target printed circuit board layout. Ensure thermal management strategies accommodate the 75 mW power rating within the specified operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Cross-reference datasheet specifications against application voltage constraints to prevent overdriving the 20 mA forward current limit.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact dual-color indicator is required for space-constrained designs. The 2x5mm form factor offers a smaller footprint compared to traditional 5mm round LEDs while maintaining high visibility through its diffused lens. Consider the specific color combination needs for status differentiation between green and yellow states. Verify compatibility with existing through-hole manufacturing equipment and soldering profiles.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's bi-color LED portfolio, designed for applications requiring multiple status colors in a single housing. The WP117 series utilizes standard through-hole technology, making it compatible with legacy manufacturing lines. It serves as a direct replacement for discrete single-color LEDs where space savings and dual-state indication are prioritized. The component integrates two distinct semiconductor chips within one encapsulation.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2x5mm dual-segment package, 20 mA forward current, and 110-degree viewing angle. Verify equivalent forward voltage ratings of 2.1 V and 2.2 V for respective colors. Ensure the replacement maintains the same peak wavelengths of 568 nm and 588 nm for color consistency. Check mechanical lead frame compatibility for automated insertion.
