High Efficiency LED in ∅ 3 mm Clear Package
DESCRIPTION
The TLH.4900 series was developed for applications
where high light output is required.
It is housed in a 3 mm clear plastic package. The small
viewing angle of these devices provides a high
brightness.
All LEDs are categorized in luminous intensity groups.
The green and yellow LEDs are categorized
additionally in wavelength groups.
That allows users to assemble LEDs with uniform
appearance.

Note:
The above type numbers represent the order groups which include only a few brightness groups. Only one group will be shipped on each reel or
bulk (there will be no mixing of two groups on one reel/bulk). In order to ensure availability, single brightness groups will not be orderable. In a
similar manner for colors where wavelength groups are measured and binned, single wavelength groups will be shipped on any one reel/bulk. In
order to ensure availability, single wavelength groups will not be orderable.
