Cree LED CLA1B-WKW-XE0F0503 High-Intensity PLCC4 Cool White SMD for Signaling and Indicators

Product Details

Cree LED CLA1B-WKW High-Intensity PLCC4 Cool White SMD for Signaling and Indicators. The Cree LED CLA1B-WKW series represents a significant step up in reliability for white SMD components. Utilizing the professional PLCC4 package, the CLA1B-WKW-XE0F0503 is engineered specifically for applications where standard PLCC2 LEDs might fail due to thermal stress. This component is the primary choice for LED module manufacturers and automotive lighting designers who require consistent cool white output and high radiant intensity in a compact 3.2 x 2.8 mm footprint.

Built on a stable lead-frame platform, the CLA1B-WKW ensures that the white spectrum remains crisp and uniform throughout its operational life. The 4-pin design isn't just for mechanical stability; it facilitates an efficient thermal path, protecting the phosphor layer from premature degradation and maintaining a stable CCT (Correlated Color Temperature) in high-ambient-temperature environments.

Critical Engineering Advantages

• Superior Thermal Management (PLCC4): Unlike traditional 2-pin SMDs, the PLCC4 architecture allows for better heat dissipation from the InGaN chip to the PCB copper traces. This results in a lower junction temperature, which is essential for maintaining lumen maintenance in enclosed signage or automotive dash modules.
• High Luminous Intensity (mcd): Binned for maximum candela output at 30mA, this LED provides the high-contrast "daylight" white required for visibility in bright outdoor environments and critical status indicators.
• Industrial-Grade Material Science: Utilizing advanced UV-inhibitor resins and high-quality packaging materials, the CLA1B series resists yellowing and moisture ingress, ensuring an excellent L70 lifespan for 50,000+ hour commercial projects.
• Uniform Wide-Angle Distribution: The 120-degree viewing angle eliminates "spotting" in edge-lit panels and channel letters, providing a perfectly smooth light distribution across the diffusion surface.

Practical Application Scenarios

• Channel Letters & Signage: High-uniformity white light for professional branding and 24/7 informational signage.
• Automotive Interior & Indicators: Reliable emitters for dashboard backlighting, switches, and interior courtesy lights.
• Billboard & Lightbox Arrays: Consistent daylight-white arrays for large-scale outdoor advertising displays requiring uniform CCT.
• Industrial Status Boards: Durable, high-visibility white indicators for control panels and safety machinery.
