What LED beads are used for consumer electronics status indicator lights? Selection scheme for consumer electronics status indicator lights
Consumer electronics (TWS earphones, wristbands, power banks, small appliances) have extremely small bodies and are powered by batteries. The indicator lights must be miniaturized and have low power consumption. Hongcheng Optoelectronics' small-sized patch LED has a minimum 0402 package and a 2mA low current model that meets the demanding requirements of consumer electronics.
Key points for selecting consumer electronics status indicator lights
- Micro packaging: 0402/0603 patch is mainstream, and the ultimate miniaturization option is 020 side emitting.
- Low power consumption: Select a 2mA high brightness model for the battery device, with a total light power consumption of less than 10mW.
- Side emitting: Select 4020/0802/0602 side emitting patches for ultra narrow borders.
- Charging status: red and green dual color display of charging status, 0603/0805 dual color patch.
- Consistency: Large quantity of consumer products, batch consistency of ± 10%, support for tape SMT.
