Broadcom 2.1 V Red LED Standard Surface Chip LED HSMS-C170

Broadcom HSMS-C170 is a 2.1 V Red LED Standard Surface Chip LED designed for low-power signal and visual indication applications in electronics assemblies.

This LED operates at a low forward voltage of 2.1 V and supports a maximum forward current of 20 mA, making it ideal for compact low-voltage circuits. The device emits red light at a dominant wavelength of 626 nm with a luminous intensity of 10 mcd, ensuring clear and focused visual signaling.

The chip LED features a diffused, clear rectangular lens measuring 2 x 1.25 x 0.8 mm that provides a broad 170° viewing angle for extensive visibility. It is surface-mount packaged with two pins and supplied in tape and reel format to facilitate automated assembly lines, enhancing manufacturing efficiency.

With a maximum power dissipation of 52 mW, it reduces thermal stress and prolongs device longevity. The product is fully RoHS compliant, ensuring environmental safety and regulatory adherence.

Applications include status indicators on handheld instruments, backlighting for small control panels, general-purpose visual alerts in equipment racks, and prototype boards that require surface mounting. This LED is not certified for automotive standards and should not be used in vehicle electronics requiring such approval.
