📦 Package, Dimensions & Assembly Notes
The device features a compact outline with dimensions 📏 5.0mm (L) x 5.0mm (W) x 1.6mm (H).
- Packaging: EIA standard compliant for automated feeders.
- Moisture Sensitivity: Classified as MSL 3. Ensure proper baking before reflow if exposed to ambient air beyond floor life limits.
- Soldering: Compatible with Infrared Reflow processes. Recommended profiles: Max 260°C for <6s (Lead-based) or 255°C for <10s (Lead-free).
- Assembly: Designed for high-volume SMT automation 🤖.
📈 Sourcing & Supply Considerations
- Binning Codes: Voltage (N13-x) and Brightness (G6-G9) binning codes must be specified for batch consistency to avoid color variation in finished modules.
- Authenticity: Verify packaging integrity to ensure compliance with ROHS and MSL standards.
- Yield Management:🚀 The ESD rating of 2000V requires strict handling protocols during PCBA to prevent latent defects.
- Samples: Evaluation samples are recommended to verify optical compatibility in specific housing designs.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the typical forward voltage for this LED?
A: The forward voltage (VF) ranges from a minimum of 2.8V to a maximum of 3.4V when driven at the rated current of 60mA. Designers should consider the upper limit for driver circuit sizing.
Q: Can this component be used in outdoor environments?
A: While the operating temperature supports a wide range (-40°C to +85°C), the datasheet primarily specifies indoor lighting applications. Outdoor use requires additional IP-rated protection against water ingress, as the standard package is not inherently waterproof.
Q: What does the "60mA" current rating imply?
A: The XL-5050UGC-A contains 3 internal chips. The rating 20mA * 3 = 60mA indicates the total continuous forward current the package can dissipate without exceeding thermal limits.
Q: How strict is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL)?
A: The component is rated MSL 3. This means it can be exposed to factory floor conditions (30°C/60% RH) for up to 168 hours before baking is required to prevent popcorning damage during reflow soldering.
Q: What precautions are necessary for soldering?
A: Do not exceed the maximum soldering temperature of 260°C for longer than 6 seconds. For lead-free processes, control the ramp-up rate to ≤3°C/second to minimize thermal shock to the epoxy body.
