Notes:

Maximum ratings are package dependent. The above ratings were determined using a T-1 3/4 package (with Hysol OS4000

epoxy) for characterization. Ratings for other packages may differ. The forward currents (DC and Peak) are not limited by the die

but by the effect of the LED junction temperature on the package. The junction temperature limit of 125°C is a limit of the T-1

3/4 package; junction temperature should be characterized in a specific package to determine limitations. Assembly processing

temperature must not exceed 325°C (< 5 seconds).

Product resistance to electrostatic discharge (ESD) according to the HBM is measured by simulating ESD using a rapid avalanche

energy test (RAET). The RAET procedures are designed to approximate the maximum ESD ratings shown. The RAET procedure is

performed on each die. The ESD classification of Class 2 is based on sample testing according to MIL-STD-883E.

All products conform to the listed minimum and maximum specifications for electrical and optical characteristics when assembled

and operated at 5 mA within the maximum ratings shown above. Efficiency decreases at higher currents. Typical values given

are within the range of average values expected by manufacturer in large quantities and are provided for information only. All

measurements were made using lamps in T-1 3/4 packages (with Hysol OS4000 epoxy). Optical characteristics measured in an

integrating sphere using Illuminance E.

Caution: To obtain optimum output efficiency, the amount of epoxy used should be characterized based upon the specific

application.
