LED Indication - Discrete

LEDs have been the go-to source for visual information for decades due to their extremely low cost, bright output, and robust packaging that withstands harsh environments. When it comes to electronics, any number of applications require discrete marking and static display of system data, status, and visual feedback. For the most part, this requires the use of LEDs, which are typically well marked with a part number to identify the type of LED used in the assembly.

In this article we discuss the particular application and workings of 5988350117F (commonly referred to as 5988) high power LED mounted in a clear, waterproof silicone encapsulation. 5988 possesses an IP65 rating, which means it is suitable for outdoor use and is dust-tight and rated for jet-washing. Its high power LED delivers up to 30 lumens of light to ensure the reliability of it’s marking and readability even in direct sunlight or low-light environments.

The 5988 LED is a 3 mm discrete LED, which is suitable for use in a range of applications including marking, indication, counting, instrumentation, and many more. It works on a 12 V circuit and is capable of up to 140mA. It is available in a range of colors from red to yellow, green, blue, and white.

When it comes to its application field, 5988 is primarily used for industrial and commercial applications like lift control panels, various kinds of dimming systems, LED clock, LED alphanumeric displays, LED warning and projection systems, industrial relay control, and all kinds of digital indicators, among other purposes. With its high power LED, 5988 is able to deliver up to 30 lumens of light, so it ensures the reliability of it’s marking and readability even in direct sunlight or low-light environments.

The way it works is relatively simple. The 5988 is powered by the current created by electrons in the forward biased circuit the LED is connected to and set apart by a thin layer of silicon between it and the metal base. The voltage at which the LED will turn on is determined by a resistor placed in the circuit. As the current passes through the resistor and the LED, the voltage to the LED increases. The increased voltage energizes the LED, allowing it to initiate the process of recombining electrons and generating light.

The luminous efficacy of each 5988 LED depends on the type of color the LED is; that is, each type will produce different lumens output per watt. In addition, the light output of the 5988 is further regulated by controlling the forward current passing through the LED. This can be done by adding a series resistor, which is represented by a ring next to the symbol for a standard LED in the circuit diagram. This resistor, which is also referred to as a current-limiting resistor, helps to ensure that the correct amount of current is passing through the LED without overdriving it.

The 5988 LED is an example of an impressive and versatile technology, which can be used to provide reliable marking and visual feedback in just about any application. Its waterproof encapsulation and high power LED ensure the reliability and readability of anything marked with it, regardless of the environment or operating conditions. As a result, 5988 LED is an ideal choice for many engineering and industrial applications.
