LEDs - Circuit Board Indicators, Arrays, Light Bars, Bar Graphs.

LEDs are a type of circuit board indicators that are composed of light-emitting diodes. LEDs are used in displays, lighting, and special applications. This article focuses on the 5680004815F LED and its application field and working principle.

Application Field

The 5680004815F is a miniature signal LED designed for PCB mounting and surface mounting. Its 1.85mmx3.55mm footprint is small yet similar to standard sized LEDs making it easy to integrate into a variety of applications. It is suitable for industries that require small light sources for various applications such as backlighting, message boards, and displays.

The LED is ideal for LED light bars, LED arrays, LED displays, light painting, and other single color display applications. The 5680004815F is also used in a wide range of digital devices such as cell phones, remote controls, and CD players.

Working Principle

LEDs are made of semiconductor materials that convert electricity into light. The LED\'s light emission is influenced by its material and size, which provides different levels of brightness and color. The 5680004815F LED is composed of a semiconductor chip and LED encapsulation material. The LED encapsulation material is made of epoxy to protect the chip or wire power. The semiconductor chip contains a P-type layer, an N-type layer, a light-emitting material, and a protect layer.

When a voltage is applied to the LED, the P-type layer and N-type layer both contain charges and form a PN junction structure. As electrons and holes move within the device, they recombine and produce energy which is released in the form of light. The operating voltage of the 5680004815F is around 1.4V at 20mA. The operating temperature of the LED is -25°C to +75°C.

Conclusion

The 5680004815F LED is a miniature signal LED designed for PCB mounting and surface mounting. It can be used in a variety of devices such as backlighting, message boards, and displays, as well as LED light bars, LED arrays, LED displays, light painting, and other single color display applications. Its working principle is based on its semiconductor chip, consisting of a P-type layer, an N-type layer, a light-emitting material, and a protect layer, recombining to form energy which is released in the form of light.
