2. Technical Parameter Analysis
2.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings
The operating limits of the device are defined under specific environmental conditions (Ta=25°C). Exceeding these ratings may cause permanent damage.
- Reverse Voltage (VR):Maximum 5V. This is a key parameter for circuit protection; applying a reverse bias exceeding this value will damage the LED junction.
- Forward Current (IF):The continuous DC forward current rating varies by chip: 50 mA for R6 (red), 25 mA for BH (blue). The typical operating condition specified in the datasheet is 20mA.
- Peak Forward Current (IFP):Both chips are 100 mA, suitable for pulse operation at specified duty cycles.
- Power Dissipation (Pd):R6 is 120 mW, BH is 95 mW. This parameter, together with the thermal resistance (implied), determines the maximum allowable power under given thermal conditions.

3. Binning System Description
Kwa kuhakikisha usawa wa rangi na mwangaza katika uzalishaji, LED zimegawanywa katika vigezo mbalimbali kulingana na vigezo muhimu.
3.1 Luminous Intensity Binning
Wakati wa kupima kwa IF=20mA, chipi za R6 na BH zimegawanywa katika vigezo vinne vya nguvu (Q2, R1, R2, S1). Vigezo hivi vinabainisha thamani ya chini na ya juu, ikiruhusu wabunifu kuchagua kiwango sahihi cha mwangaza kwa matumizi yao, kuanzia mwangaza wa kawaida (Q2: 90-112 mcd) hadi mwangaza wa juu (S1: 180-225 mcd).
3.2 Dominant Wavelength Binning
For the R6 (red) chip, the dominant wavelength is divided into two codes: FF1 (621-626 nm) and FF2 (626-631 nm). This allows for the selection of a specific red hue. The BH (blue) chip has a narrower specified range (466.5-471.5 nm), indicating higher consistency in blue wavelength output.
3.3 Forward Voltage Binning
Forward voltage is also binned to aid circuit design, particularly for current-limiting resistor calculation and power supply design.
- R6 (Red):Bins 0 (1.75-1.95V), 1 (1.95-2.15V), and 2 (2.15-2.35V).
- BH (Blue):Gear 11 (2.90-3.10V), 12 (3.10-3.30V), 13 (3.30-3.50V), and 14 (3.50-3.70V).
4. Performance Curve Analysis
The datasheet provides characteristic curves for both the R6 and BH models to facilitate a deeper understanding of performance under different conditions.
4.1 Relationship between Relative Luminous Intensity and Forward Current
The curve shows that before reaching the rated current, there is an approximately linear relationship between forward current and light output. It confirms that 20mA is the standard operating point where both colors are within the linear region. Driving the LED with a higher current increases output but also raises junction temperature and accelerates lumen depreciation.
4.2 Forward Current Derating Curve
This chart is crucial for thermal management. It illustrates the maximum allowable continuous forward current as a function of ambient temperature (Ta). As Ta increases, the maximum allowable current decreases linearly. For reliable operation in high-temperature environments (e.g., +85°C), the forward current must be significantly derated from its 25°C rating.
4.3 Spectral Distribution
The spectral diagram shows the relationship between normalized radiant power and wavelength. The R6 curve is centered at 632 nm with a typical bandwidth, while the BH curve is centered at 468 nm. These charts are useful for applications sensitive to specific spectral content.
4.4 Forward Voltage vs. Forward Current Relationship
This IV characteristic curve demonstrates a typical diode exponential relationship. The voltage increases with the logarithm of the current. This curve is helpful for understanding the dynamic resistance of an LED, which is crucial for designing efficient drive circuits.
4.5 Radiation Pattern
The polar plot intuitively represents the typical 120° viewing angle. Intensity is normalized to the peak (axial) value. The plot shows a pattern resembling a Lambertian distribution, which is common in LEDs with diffusive lenses or reflectors, providing broad and uniform illumination.
5. Mechanical and Packaging Information
5.1 Package Dimensions
The LED is packaged in a P-LCC-4 (Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier, 4-pin) package. The detailed dimension drawing specifies overall dimensions, lead pitch, and cavity details. Key dimensions include the pad size, which is crucial for PCB pad design. This package incorporates a built-in reflector cup surrounding the LED chip to collimate light and enhance forward luminous intensity. The anode and cathode are clearly marked on the package drawing.
6. Soldering and Assembly Guide
6.1 Reflow Soldering Temperature Profile
Provides a detailed lead-free reflow soldering temperature profile. Key stages include:
- Preheat:150-200°C, lasting 60-120 seconds, with a maximum heating rate of 3°C/second.
- Reflow (Above Liquidus):Time above 217°C shall be 60-150 seconds. Peak temperature shall not exceed 260°C, and time within ±5°C of peak temperature shall be no more than 10 seconds.
- Cooling:Maximum cooling rate 6°C per second.
Important Notice:Reflow soldering should not exceed two times to prevent thermal stress damage to the package and bonding wires.
6.2 Storage and Handling Precautions
- Moisture Sensitivity:This component is packaged in a moisture barrier bag with desiccant. Do not open the bag until ready to use the component. The floor life after opening is 168 hours at ≤30°C and ≤60% RH.
- Baking:If the storage time is exceeded or the desiccant indicator changes color, baking at 60 ±5°C for 24 hours is required before reflow soldering to prevent the "popcorn" phenomenon (package cracking due to vapor pressure).
- Current Protection:An external current-limiting resistor must be used. LEDs are current-driven devices; a small change in forward voltage can cause a large change in current, potentially leading to instantaneous failure.
- Mechanical Stress:Avoid applying mechanical stress to the LED body during the soldering process.
7. Packaging and Ordering Information
7.1 Tape and Reel Specifications
The product is supplied in 8mm carrier tape format, wound on standard reels. Each reel contains 2000 units. Detailed drawings of the carrier tape pocket dimensions and reel dimensions are provided to ensure compatibility with automated assembly equipment feeders.
7.2 Label Description
The reel label contains multiple codes:
- P/N:Manufacturer Part Number (67-22/R6BHC-B07/2T).
- QTY:Number of parts on the reel.
- CAT, HUE, REF:Codes corresponding to luminous intensity binning, dominant wavelength binning, and forward voltage binning, respectively.
- LOT No:Traceable lot number.
8. Application Suggestions
8.1 Typical Application Scenarios
- Telecommunications Equipment:Status indicators on routers, modems, telephones, and fax machines.
- LCD backlight:Side-lit or direct-lit backlighting for small monochrome or color LCD displays used in home appliances, instruments, and handheld devices.
- Switch and symbol illumination:Backlighting for membrane switches, keypads, and panel legends.
- Light Guide Applications:As a light source for acrylic or PC light guides, transmitting light from the PCB to the front panel or display.
- General Status Indication:Power, activity, alarm, or mode indicators in a wide range of electronic products.
8.2 Design Considerations
- Current Limiting:Always use a series resistor. Calculate the resistor value using the formula R = (Vsupply - Vf) / If, where Vf should be selected as the maximum value from the datasheet (e.g., 2.35V for R6, 3.7V for BH) to ensure a conservative design where the current never exceeds 20mA, even accounting for power supply voltage tolerance and Vf variation.
- Thermal Management:For continuous operation at high ambient temperatures or near maximum current, PCB layout must be considered. Use sufficient copper foil connected to the LED's thermal pad (if available) or cathode pin to act as a heat sink.
- Optical Design:A wide viewing angle of 120° may require light guides, diffusers, or lenses to shape the beam for specific applications. Integrated reflectors provide good forward intensity but may not be suitable for extremely narrow beam requirements.
- ESD Protection:Although there is no explicit ESD rating, standard ESD handling precautions should be observed during assembly to prevent potential damage to semiconductor junctions.
9. Technical Comparison and Differentiation
Compared to standard SMD LEDs without an integrated reflector, this component provides a significantly higher forward luminous intensity at the same drive current due to the light-gathering effect of the reflector cup. The P-LCC-4 package offers a more robust mechanical structure than chip-scale packages and typically provides better thermal performance through its leads. Compared to LEDs that are unbinned or have wide bins, providing detailed intensity, wavelength, and voltage binning information enables tighter system design and better end-product consistency. The combination of a wide viewing angle with good intensity makes it a versatile choice for applications requiring both off-axis angle visibility and bright on-axis performance.
10. Frequently Asked Questions (Based on Technical Parameters)
10.1 What is the difference between peak wavelength and dominant wavelength?
Peak wavelength (λp) is the wavelength at which the spectral power distribution reaches its maximum. Dominant wavelength (λd) is the wavelength of monochromatic light that most closely matches the perceived color of the LED light. For design purposes, especially in color-sensitive applications, the dominant wavelength and its binning are more relevant.
10.2 Can I drive this LED with 30mA?
While the absolute maximum rating for continuous forward current is 50mA (R6) or 25mA (BH), the photometric and electrical characteristics are specified at 20mA. Driving at 30mA will produce more light but also increases power consumption, junction temperature, and may accelerate lumen depreciation. It is essential to refer to the derating curves and ensure the junction temperature remains within safe limits. For long-term reliable operation, it is recommended to follow the typical condition of 20mA.
10.3 Why is the forward voltage of a blue LED higher than that of a red one?
This is determined by the fundamental semiconductor materials. The R6 red LED uses AlGaInP (aluminum gallium indium phosphide), which has a lower bandgap energy. The BH blue LED uses InGaN (indium gallium nitride), which has a wider bandgap. A wider bandgap requires more energy for electrons to cross, which translates to a higher forward voltage at the same current.
10.4 Yaya yin oda yadda ake fassara lambobin rarrabawa?
When placing an order, you can specify the required CAT (intensity), HUE (wavelength), and REF (voltage) bin codes to ensure the received LED performance parameters are within your specific design window. For example, to achieve consistent bright red output, you can specify CAT=S1 and HUE=FF2. If not specified, you will receive parts from the standard production bins.

Scenario: Designing a multi-status indicator panel for a network switch.The panel requires a red LED for "Critical Alarm," a blue LED for "System Activity," and must be visible from all angles in a rack-mounted unit. Therefore, the 67-22/R6BHC-B07/2T was selected.
Implementation Plan:R6 (red) and BH (blue) models were used. The designer selected the S1 intensity bin for maximum brightness and specified tight wavelength bins (e.g., FF2 for red) to ensure color consistency across all units. A simple drive circuit was designed using a 5V supply. For the blue LED (max Vf=3.7V @20mA), the current-limiting resistor was calculated: R = (5V - 3.7V) / 0.02A = 65 ohms. A standard 68-ohm resistor was chosen. For the red LED (max Vf=2.35V), R = (5V - 2.35V) / 0.02A = 132.5 ohms; a 130-ohm resistor was used. The wide 120° viewing angle ensures the indicator is clearly visible even when technicians are not directly facing the panel. Components were placed using automated equipment with the provided tape-and-reel.
12. Working Principle
A Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that emits light through electroluminescence. When a forward voltage is applied across the p-n junction, electrons from the n-type material recombine with holes from the p-type material in the active region. This recombination process releases energy in the form of photons (light). The specific wavelength (color) of the emitted light is determined by the bandgap energy of the semiconductor material used in the active region. The AlGaInP material system produces red, orange, and yellow light, while the InGaN system produces blue, green, and white light (when combined with a phosphor). The integrated reflector in this package is a molded cavity, typically made of a highly reflective material, surrounding the chip. It redirects light that would otherwise be emitted sideways or backward toward the front of the package, thereby increasing useful forward luminous intensity and controlling the beam pattern.
