Description
These Precision Optical Performance AlInGaP LEDs pro-
vide superior light output for excellent readability in sun-
light and are extremely reliable. AlInGaP LED technology
provides extremely stable light output over long periods
of time. Precision Optical Performance lamps utilize the
aluminum indium gallium phosphide (AlInGaP) technol-
ogy.
These LED lamps are tinted, diused, T-13/4 packages
incorporating second generation optics producing well
dened radiation patterns at specic viewing cone an-
gles.
There are two families of amber, red, and red-orange
lamps; AlInGaP and the higher performance AlInGaP II.
The high maximum LED junction temperature limit of
+130°C enables high temperature operation in bright
sunlight conditions.
These lamps are available in two package options to give
the designer exibility with device mounting.
Benets
Viewing angles match trac management sign
requirements
Colors meet automotive specications
Superior performance in outdoor environments

Precautions:
Lead Forming:
The leads of an LED lamp may be preformed or cut to
length prior to insertion and soldering on PC board.
For better control, it is recommended to use proper
tool to precisely form and cut the leads to applicable
length rather than doing it manually.
If manual lead cutting is necessary, cut the leads after
the soldering process. The solder connection forms a
mechanical ground which prevents mechanical stress
due to lead cutting from traveling into LED package.
This is highly recommended for hand solder opera-
tion, as the excess lead length also acts as small heat
sink.
Soldering and Handling:
Care must be taken during PCB assembly and soldering
process to prevent damage to the LED component.
LED component may be eectively hand soldered
to PCB. However, it is only recommended under un-
avoidable circumstances such as rework. The closest
manual soldering distance of the soldering heat
source (soldering irons tip) to the body is 1.59mm.
Note:
1. PCB with dierent size and design (component density) will have
dierent heat mass (heat capacity). This might cause a change in
temperature experienced by the board if same wave soldering
setting is used. So, it is recommended to re-calibrate the soldering
prole again before loading a new type of PCB.
2. Avago Technologies’ high brightness LED are using high eciency
LED die with single wire bond as shown below. Customer is advised
to take extra precaution during wave soldering to ensure that the
maximum wave temperature does not exceed 250°C and the solder
contact time does not exceeding 3sec. Over-stressing the LED
during soldering process might cause premature failure to the LED
due to delamination.
Avago Technologies LED conguration
1.59mm
Soldering the LED using soldering iron tip closer than
1.59mm might damage the LED.
ESD precaution must be properly applied on the sol-
dering station and personnel to prevent ESD damage
to the LED component that is ESD sensitive. Do refer
to Avago application note AN 1142 for details. The sol-
dering iron used should have grounded tip to ensure
electrostatic charge is properly grounded.

Peak temperature 250 °C Max. 260 °C Max.
Dwell time 3 sec Max. 5 sec Max
Note:
1) Above conditions refers to measurement with thermocouple
mounted at the bottom of PCB.
2) It is recommended to use only bottom preheaters in order to reduce
thermal stress experienced by LED.
Wave soldering parameters must be set and main-
tained according to the recommended tempera-
ture and dwell time. Customer is advised to perform
daily check on the soldering prole to ensure that
it is always conforming to recommended soldering
conditions.
Note: Electrical connection between bottom surface of LED die and
the lead frame is achieved through conductive paste.
Any alignment xture that is being applied during
wave soldering should be loosely tted and should
not apply weight or force on LED. Non metal mate-
rial is recommended as it will absorb less heat during
wave soldering process.
At elevated temperature, LED is more susceptible to
mechanical stress. Therefore, PCB must allowed to
cool down to room temperature prior to handling,
which includes removal of alignment xture or pallet.
If PCB board contains both through hole (TH) LED and
other surface mount components, it is recommend-
ed that surface mount components be soldered on
the top side of the PCB. If surface mount need to be
on the bottom side, these components should be sol-
dered using reow soldering prior to insertion the TH
LED.
Recommended PC board plated through holes (PTH)
size for LED component leads.

Over-sizing the PTH can lead to twisted LED after
clinching. On the other hand under sizing the PTH
can cause diculty inserting the TH LED.
