Rectangular Package Discrete LED RED/GREEN, 2 x 5 mm, Bi-Color R5BC-3 Rectangular Package RoHS Compliant White Diffused Lens Available in Shouldered Lead Frame style 3-Lead Bi-Color LED Ideal for Status Indication and Bar Graph Displays Bivar Rectangular 2 x 5mm Package 3-Lead Bi-Color LED is ideal for those applications where multiple signals need to be displayed at the same location such as standby-on indication on server or computer peripherals. When needed, the third color signal can be created by powering up both chips together for on-off-standby applications with three distinct signals.. The rectangular package makes it ideal for greater indication visibility and creating bar graph displays when arranged in linear LED arrays. Bivar offers white diffused LED lens for uniform light output. The Shouldered Lead frame LED is ideal for vertical spacer assemblies and Right Angle Holder assemblies that require lead bends. This 3-Lead Bi -Color LED package comes in a common cathode Lead Frame configuration. Peak. Wavelength Part Number Material Emitted Color Lens Appearance Viewing Angle p(nm) TYP.
