The document describes the VISHAY TLCW5100 series of ultrabright white LEDs. These LEDs feature a clear non-diffused lens and high luminous intensity. The product features include the use of ultrabright InGaN technology, high luminous intensity and color categorization, suitable for applications such as interior and exterior lighting, instrumentation, and front panel indicators.
The TLCW5100 is a 5 mm, non‑diffused, ultrabright white LED designed for high‑luminous‑intensity applications such as interior and exterior lighting, outdoor LED panels, instrumentation, and front‑panel indicators. It uses InGaN technology with a clear untinted plastic case to maximize light output and visibility.
Key specifications include a forward voltage of 3.9‑4.5 V at 30 mA, reverse voltage of 5 V, power dissipation up to 135 mW, and an operating temperature range of –40 °C to +100 °C. The device offers an ESD‑withstand voltage of 1 kV and luminous intensity ranging from 1000 mcd to 4000 mcd, depending on the color bin.
