LEDs, or Light Emitting Diodes, are a form of semiconductor light sources that can be included in various types of electronic devices. LEDs are increasingly being utilized in a variety of applications, ranging from consumer goods such as remote controls, small electronic devices, and even in the automotive industry. LEDs have proven to be an efficient, reliable, and cost-effective form of lighting and are now being used in a variety of circuit board indicators, arrays, light bars, bar graphs, etc.

5520744 Application field and Working Principle

The 5520744, also known as the NTE5735, is a small, surface-mount LED (Light Emitting Diode) array. This array includes two, four, or eight LEDs, each one featuring a unique color, including amber, blue, green, red and white. The size of the array makes it perfect for providing both direct lighting and directional light and can easily be embedded into circuit boards for a variety of applications.

The working principle of the 5520744 LEDs is based on the fact that when a forward-biased voltage is applied across a diode junction, it produces light. This is based on a process known as electro-luminescence. The higher the voltage, the more light is produced. The emitted light is visible when it is directed outward from the diode junction.

Circuit Board Indicators

LEDs are the light source of choice for a variety of circuit board indicators. These indicators are used to provide feedback to the user regarding the status of the circuit board. For example, a red LED may indicate that the circuit board has an error, while a green LED may indicate that everything is working correctly. LEDs are preferred for these types of applications because they are highly visible and require very little power to operate.

Arrays, Light Bars, Bar Graphs, etc.

LEDs are also increasingly being utilized in larger, multi-LED arrays, light bars, and bar graphs. These types of applications can be found in many consumer- oriented products, such as game consoles, televisions, and even motor vehicles. By arranging several LED\'s into an array, it is possible to achieve a larger, brighter light source than could be achieved with a single LED. Similarly, light bars utilize multiple LED\'s arranged into a strip or bar, allowing for directional light that can be used as a backlight or to illuminate keypad controls.

Conclusion

The 5520744 LED is a small, surface-mount LED array that is often used in a variety of circuit board indicators, arrays, light bars, bar graphs, etc. This LED is highly visible, requires little power to operate, and is used in a variety of consumer-oriented products including game consoles, televisions, and motor vehicles. With its efficiency, reliability, and affordability, the 5520744 LED is a popular choice for a variety of applications.
