Technical Specifications

The SLI-560UT3FXL features separate anodes and a common cathode for the red and green LEDs. The forward voltage for the red LED is typically around 1.85V, while for the green LED, it's around 2.1V. The luminous intensity varies depending on the color, but typically falls within the range of 2 to 5 mcd at a forward current of 20mA. The peak wavelength for the red LED is approximately 660nm, and for the green LED, it's around 565nm. The viewing angle is typically around 120 degrees. The device is RoHS compliant and comes in a standard SMD package compatible with automated pick-and-place equipment. Operating temperature range is generally from -40°C to +85°C. The materials used are designed for long-term stability and resistance to environmental factors.

This bi-color LED is well-suited for applications that require clear visual indication of different states or conditions. The combination of red and green allows for intuitive signaling, such as indicating pass/fail, on/off, or high/low status. Its low power consumption makes it suitable for battery-powered devices. The surface mount design ensures easy integration into modern electronic assemblies, and the long lifespan contributes to overall product reliability. The specific product is often chosen when clear visual indication and longevity are needed in the final application.
