Side Emitting LED 335 4008 Red SMD LED

What's side view LED? 

Those LED that emits light from the side. 4008FRC-8 is a standard side view LED that have 2 individual lead pins and each pin will connect with different polarity, one for anode and other one for cathode. The LED will be light up as long as we connect these pins into the circuit. The size of this side emitting red LED is 4.0*0.8mm, that's why some people will also name this SMD LED as 4008 LED. In this case, we package it red SMD LED inside. Beucase of the small size and the emitting position, this 625nm LED will be easy to fit with kinds of electronic product or some LED backlight application. 

Side view Red SMD LED Size: 

* Yellow LED, IR LED, UV LED, Blue SMD LED ect are also available in this SMD LED case*

Electrical Parameters:

*Pulse forward current confition: Duty 1% and Pulse width=10us.

*Soldering confition: Soldering confition must be completed with 3 secongds at 260℃

*Luminous intensity is measured by ZWL600.

*λD is derived from the CIE chromaticity diagram and represents the single wavelength which defines the color of the device.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS:

Compare to epoxy encapsulant that is hard and brittle, silicone is softer and flexible Althouth its characteristiec significantly reduces thermal stress, it is more susceptible to damage by extemal mechanical force. As a result, special handling precautions need to be observed during assembly using silicone encapsulated Led products. Failure to comply might lead to damage and premature failure of the led

1. Handle the component along the side surfaces by using forceps or appropriate tools.

2, Do not directly touch or handle the silicone lens surface. It may damage the internal circuitry.

3, Do not stack together assembled PCBS containing exposed LEDs. Impact may scratch the silicone lens or damage the internal circuitry.

4, 4-A The inner diameter of the SMD pickup nozzle should not exceed the size of the LED to prevent air leaks;

    4-B A plible material is suggested for the nozzle tip to avoid acratching or damaging the LED surface during pickup.

    4-C The dimension of the component must be accurately programmed in the pick-and-place machine to insure precise pickup and avoid damage during production;

    4-D As silicone encapsulation is permeable to gases, some corrosive substances such as H2S might corrode silver plationg of leadframe. Special care should be taken if an LED with silicone encapsulation is to used near such substances.

5, Please aviod continued exposure to the condensing moisture environment and keep the product away from repid transitions in ambiemt temperature.

6, Product in the original sealed package is recommended to be assembled within 24 hours of opening.
