Ordering and Inquiry Information
Please include the complete part number HC-3015TW1C-AL-1, required quantity and application in your inquiry. Packaging quantity, minimum order quantity, sample lead time and volume production lead time are subject to the quotation and order confirmation for this part number.
If specific materials, environmental compliance documents or other emission colors are required, specify them separately in your inquiry so both parties can confirm the corresponding part number and documentation. Series images or generic descriptions must not be used as substitutes.
Selection Recommendations
Using your actual power supply and drive design, check forward voltage, operating current, emission direction and pad dimensions against the HC-3015TW1C-AL-1 datasheet. The 20 mA in the table above is the specification test current and should not be treated directly as the recommended operating current for all applications.
Reflow soldering, storage and ESD protection requirements are subject to this part number's datasheet and mutually confirmed process conditions. Recheck parameters when changing color or part number; do not directly reuse values from this page.
