Additional Details

The CL-425F-V typically operates at a forward voltage of approximately 2.0-2.5V and draws a current of around 20mA. The specific luminous intensity and color of the LED will vary depending on the version (consult the Citizen datasheet for precise details). The LED is commonly available in various colors, including red, green, blue, and yellow. Proper current limiting resistors should be used in series with the LED to prevent damage. The LED is typically packaged in a standard through-hole or surface-mount package for easy integration into PCB designs. Ensure proper polarity when connecting the LED (the longer lead is typically the anode). Refer to the Citizen datasheet for complete specifications, including optical characteristics, electrical ratings, and mechanical dimensions.
