XL-504UGC LED: High-Brightness Green Sourcing for Industrial Displays

📌 Product Overview

The XL-504UGC is a high-performance through-hole LED emitting bright green light at a dominant wavelength of 520nm. Engineered for reliability, it features a compact F5 package and operates efficiently at low DC voltages (2.8-3.4V). Designed for harsh environments, it supports a wide temperature range (-20°C to +85°C), making it suitable for industrial and automotive applications where consistent performance is critical.


🚀 Typical Applications

  • Automotive electronics (dashboard indicators, interior lighting)
  • Industrial control panels and status displays
  • Medical beauty instruments and electronic teaching equipment
  • Traffic control systems and urban lighting projects
  • Consumer electronics (clocks, toys, decorative lighting)

❓ FAQ

Q: What is the brightness tolerance for the XL-504UGC?
A: Luminous intensity is graded with ±10% tolerance (e.g., C8: 25,000-30,000 mcd).

Q: Is this LED suitable for automotive use?
A: Yes, it meets -20°C to +85°C operating range but requires validation for AEC-Q102 compliance.

Q: How should I store unused LEDs?
A: Store ≤30°C/70% RH in original packaging with desiccant for ≤3 months.

Q: Can I replace this with a similar SMD LED?
A: Not directly; this is a through-hole (F5) design. SMD equivalents would require PCB redesign.

Q: What’s the peak wavelength range?
A: Peak wavelength (λp) is 525nm, with dominant wavelength (λd) from 515-530nm.
