WP57GGD

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The Kingbright WP57GGD is a single-color green light-emitting diode designed for through-hole mounting. It features a T-1 3/4 (5mm) diameter lens with a diffused finish to provide wide-angle visibility. The component emits light at a peak wavelength of 568 nm and delivers a typical luminous intensity of 20 mcd. Electrical characteristics include a forward voltage of 2.2 V at a test current of 20 mA, with a maximum power dissipation rating of 62.5 mW. The device operates reliably within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Utilizes a T-1 3/4 cylindrical package with a diffused lens for broad viewing angles
• Provides high-visibility green indication suitable for panel status signaling
• Constructed with lead-free terminals compliant with RoHS3 standards

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Power supply unit status indicators
• Consumer electronics front panel signaling
• Industrial control board monitoring
• Medical equipment operational feedback

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against the manufacturer datasheet to ensure compatibility with required lens transparency and terminal plating specifications. Confirm that the through-hole footprint matches the target PCB design constraints. Check for recent Product Change Notifications regarding material updates or packaging variations before finalizing procurement orders.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 5mm through-hole form factor is required for general-purpose visual indication. The diffused lens offers superior visibility compared to water-clear variants in ambient lighting conditions. Ensure circuit design accommodates the 2.2 V forward voltage drop and limits current to prevent exceeding the 62.5 mW power dissipation limit during continuous operation.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the Kingbright WP series of single-color LEDs, which are widely used in industrial and consumer applications. The WP series emphasizes reliability and consistent optical performance across various environmental conditions. As a through-hole device, it supports traditional PCB assembly methods while providing robust mechanical stability for panel-mounted installations.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the T-1 3/4 package, 568 nm wavelength, and 20 mcd intensity. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal ratings before swapping manufacturers.
