LO M676-Q2T1-24-Z

LED Indication - Discrete

LO M676-Q2T1-24-Z LED indication discrete components are optoelectronic devices that are used to indicate the operation of a system or visual user feedback. The device is available in multiple package variations, each offering the choice of two or four pins for electrode connection.

Application Field and Working Principles

The LO M676-Q2T1-24-Z LED indication component provides highly visible indication of the operation of a system or operation status feedback. It is therefore often used in industrial applications, automotive applications as well as in medical equipment. The component can be used in both indoor and outdoor applications differentiated by the LED colors available in the market.

The device works based on the principle of optoelectronics. The LED radiance is activated by the passage of current through the electron-hole (e-h) junction. The forward current of the LED is thereby limited by a certain value, depending on its type, as an excessive flux of electrons traversing the junction may cause its damage. Different light intensities are achievable by either increasing the forward current or by pulsing it. It is possible to achieve an optical output greater than the nominal when a current of high amplitude pulses is employed.
