WP3A8YD

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The Kingbright WP3A8YD is a single-color yellow LED designed for through-hole mounting in a T-1 (3 mm) radial package. It emits light at a peak wavelength of 588 nm with a luminous intensity of 20 mcd and an 80-degree viewing angle. The component features a diffused lens, operates at a forward current of 20 mA, and has a forward voltage of 2.1 V. Rated power is 75 mW, with an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Provides high-brightness yellow illumination via a diffused lens for wide-angle visibility
• Engineered for standard through-hole PCB assembly processes
• Constructed with a T-1 radial form factor for compact indicator applications

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Panel status indicators
• Power supply visual feedback
• Control board signaling

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Kingbright documentation to confirm lens transparency and beam angle specifications. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid RoHS compliance certificates. Confirm that the supplier source matches the manufacturer's authorized distribution network to guarantee component authenticity and traceability.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide viewing angle is required for panel-mounted indicators. The T-1 package offers a balance between visibility and board space. Verify that the circuit design supports the 2.1 V forward voltage drop and 20 mA drive current requirements for optimal performance within the specified thermal limits.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Kingbright's standard through-hole LED portfolio, utilizing established T-1 casing technology. It serves as a direct replacement for legacy yellow indicators requiring similar electrical characteristics and mechanical dimensions within general-purpose electronic equipment designs.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with WP3A8GD or WP3A8RD if color differentiation is needed while maintaining identical mechanical and electrical footprints.
