About this manual

The VLMO31 series is a family of lead‑free SMD LEDs offered in a PLCC‑2 package. They are designed for applications that require narrow brightness and color selection, such as automotive dashboards, telecommunication indicators, audio/video equipment backlighting, and LCD backlights.

The datasheet lists electrical ratings (e.g., 6 V reverse voltage, 2.0‑2.8 V forward voltage at 20 mA), optical performance (soft‑orange luminous intensity from 4.5 to 18 mcd), package dimensions, tape‑and‑reel handling, recommended soldering profiles, and moisture‑sensitive storage guidelines.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum reverse voltage for VLMO31 LEDs?

The maximum reverse voltage is 6 V DC.

How should VLMO31 LEDs be stored to avoid moisture damage?

Store them in a dry box at 10 °C to 30 °C with humidity ≤ 60 % RH; sealed bags protect them for up to 12 months.

What is the recommended forward voltage at 20 mA?

The forward voltage is between 2.0 V and 2.8 V at 20 mA.

What are the luminous intensity ranges for the soft‑orange variants?

Soft‑orange LEDs provide luminous intensities from 4.5 mcd up to 18 mcd depending on the part number.
