CN-0216-B Change Notice KB, LB, YB & YB2 Series Change of Super Bright LED Specifications for AT625G (Blue) used in KB, LB, YB & YB2 Pushbuttons & KB, LB & YB Indicators Type of Change: Engineering Product Part Number Appearance All models of KB, LB, YB and YB2 Pushbuttons and KB, LB and YB Indicators with the super bright LED AT625G will have a change to the specifications. The change will effect all standard and custom products with a blue LED for these series. LB Pushbutton YB2 Pushbutton YB Indicator SUPER BRIGHT LED CODES & SPECIFICATIONS Before Change Super Bright LEDs are Electrostatic Sensitive. Electrical specifications are determined at a basic temperature of 25°C. The lamp circuit is isolated and requires an external power source. ATTENTION ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES 6G Color Blue After Change 6G Blue Maximum Forward Current I FM 30mA 30mA Typical Forward Current IF 20mA 20mA Forward Voltage VF 3.6V 3.3V ( I F = 20 ) ( I F = 20 ) Maximum Reverse Voltage VR M 5V 7V Current Reduction Rate Above 25°C ∆I F 0.50mA/°C 0.40mA/°C –25°C ~ +50°C –25°C ~ +50°C Ambient Temperature Range If the source voltage exceeds the rated voltage, a ballast resistor is required. The resistor value can be calculated by using the formula shown here. Notes: There are no changes to external dimensions for the LED. Contact factory if further details are needed.
