📌 Product Overview
The XL-4014BGWC-02 is a 4.0 x 1.4 x 0.8mm surface-mount device (SMD) from XINGLIGHT, featuring an Ice Blue luminous color (wavelength implied by chromaticity coordinates) encapsulated in a light yellow colloid. 💡 Designed for high-density illumination, it utilizes an EIA-standard package suitable for automated SMT production lines.
Target applications primarily include commercial lighting displays, LCD backlights, and decorative hard light strips. ⚡ Design focus should be placed on the 120-degree viewing angle for uniform light mixing and the 60mA drive current for maintaining luminous flux within safe thermal operating conditions.
🛠️ Typical Applications
Based on the datasheet parameters and optical characteristics, the XL-4014BGWC-02 is best suited for the following scenarios:
- Commercial Lighting & Signage: Ideal for advertising boards and light strips where high luminous intensity (up to 17 Lumens) and color consistency are critical.
- LCD Backlighting: Designed to provide efficient ice blue illumination for display panels, leveraging the 120-degree viewing angle.
- Decorative & Accent Lighting: Suitable for metal plate hard light strips and interior auxiliary automotive lighting.
- General Indoor Illumination: 💡 Applicable for lamp tubes and standard light strips requiring reliable SMT integration.

- Assembly: Designed for fully automated SMT placement to ensure high yield rates in mass production.
🚢 Sourcing & Supply Considerations
- Binning Consistency: Verify specific Brightness (H5-H8) and Voltage (N13) bins with the supplier to match your driver design and color uniformity requirements.
- Authenticity: Ensure sourcing channels provide original XINGLIGHT packaging to avoid counterfeit components with unreliable thermal performance.
- Lead Time: Check stock availability for specific bin codes, as tighter voltage and luminosity bins may have longer lead times.
❓ FAQ
Q: What is the forward voltage range required for the driver design? A: The XL-4014BGWC-02 has a forward voltage range of 2.8V to 3.4V at 60mA. Designers should select a voltage bin (N13-3, N13-4, or N13-5) to ensure consistent current regulation across the LED array.
Q: Can this LED be used for outdoor applications? A: While the storage and operating temperatures range from -40°C to +85°C, the datasheet specifies "Indoor lighting" and "Commercial display" applications. For outdoor use, additional protection against water ingress (IP rating) and UV exposure is required.
Q: What are the moisture sensitivity requirements for this component? A: The component is classified as MSL 3. It must be soldered within 168 hours (1 week) of opening the vacuum-sealed bag. If exposed longer, it requires baking at 125°C for 4-8 hours prior to reflow to prevent "popcorning" damage.
Q: What is the recommended soldering profile? A: The LED is suitable for infrared reflow soldering. The maximum soldering temperature is 260°C for ≤6 seconds. For lead-free processes, peak temperatures should not exceed 255°C (as per J-STD-020C referenced in the datasheet).
Q: How is the light color defined? A: The light is defined as Ice Blue. The specific color is determined by chromaticity coordinates x (0.1736-0.1832) and y (0.1374-0.1712). Designers should request the specific chromaticity bin (1# or 2#) to ensure visual consistency.
