9. Frequently Asked Questions (based on technical specifications)
Q1: Can I drive this LED continuously at 20mA?
A1: Yes, 20mA is the recommended maximum continuous DC forward current. For optimal lifetime and considering variations, a typical design current of 10-15mA is usually advised.
Q2: What resistor value should I use when using a 5V power supply?
A2: Use Ohm's Law: R = (V
Power Supply
- V
- F) / I
- F. For a typical VFvalue of 2.0V and a target IFF
- value of 10mA: R = (5V - 2.0V) / 0.01A = 300 Ω. Use the nearest standard value (e.g., 330 Ω for a slightly lower current). Be sure to use the maximum VF
- Calculate using the value (2.6V) to ensure the current does not exceed the limit under worst-case conditions.Q3: Why is the peak current rating (60mA) much higher than the DC rating?
- A3: The peak current rating applies to extremely short pulses (≤10μs) with a low duty cycle (≤10%). This allows for applications such as multiplexing or brief overdriving for brighter blinking signals, but the average power and junction temperature must be kept within limits to avoid damage.Q4: Can I use reflow soldering for this LED?
A4: No. The datasheet clearly states "Infrared reflow soldering is not applicable to through-hole LED lamp products." Only wave soldering or hand soldering with an electric soldering iron following the specified time/temperature profile can be used.
