Description
The HSMF-C16x series of bicolor
chip-type LEDs is designed in an
ultra small package for
miniaturization. It is the first of its
kind to achieve such small
packaging for 2 dies.
Agilent HSMF-C165, C166, C167
Miniature Bi-Color Surface Mount
Chip LEDs
Data Sheet
The small size, narrow footprint,
and low profile make this series of
LEDs excellent for backlighting,
status indication, and front panel
illumination applications.

Notes:
1. The luminous intensity, IV, is measured at the peak of the spatial radiation pattern which may not be aligned with the mechanical axis of the lamp
package.
2. The dominant wavelength, λd, is derived from the CIE Chromaticity Diagram and represents the perceived color of the device.
3. θ1/2 is the off-axis angle where the luminous intensity is 1/2 the peak intensity.
