LNJ224C44RA Optoelectronics

LED indication has become an integral part of the industrial and consumer products since the invention of the LED. Discrete LED indication is often used for point identification or for the display of visual signals. Discrete LED indication can come in the form of single, bi-color, or multi-color LEDs in a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors.

The LNJ224C44RA is a single color, 5mm LED that is commonly used in LED indication applications where a red LED is needed. The LNJ224C44RA is a standard clear lens, red indicator. It is a low power, gallium aluminum arsenide (GaAlAs) diode with a peak forward voltage of 2.1V and a peak forward current of 20mA.

The LNJ224C44RA can be used in a variety of applications that require discrete LED indication, including industrial and consumer electronics, lighting and signaling, automotive, telecommunications, and computer/datacom applications. The LNJ224C44RA is also widely used in safety and security, such as fire alarm systems, ATM machines, and hazard warning applications.

The working principle of the LNJ224C44RA lies in its construction, which consists of a diode connected between two electrodes. When current flows through the diode, electrons jump from one level of energy to another and release energy in the form of photons. These photons are the visible light that we see when looking at a LED. When the LED is connected to an electrical circuit, current will travel through the LED and cause it to emit light.

The LNJ224C44RA is extremely reliable and long-lasting, making it an ideal choice for LED indication applications. It can operate in temperatures as low as -40°C and can last up to 100,000 hours of continual use. It is also resistant to static electricity and shock, making it well-suited for use in industrial and rugged applications.

In conclusion, the LNJ224C44RA is a single color, 5mm LED indicator ideal for a variety of discrete LED indication applications. The LNJ224C44RA is reliable, long-lasting, and resistant to static electricity and shock, making it an excellent choice for industrial and consumer applications. It uses a diode structure and works by releasing photons when current flows through it, producing the visible light that we see.
