Standard Flat SMD

S0603YL-CMH1

0603 (1.6 × 0.8mm)
S0603YL-CMH1

Yellow indicator LED in the 0603 footprint (1.6 × 0.8mm). The 0603 package is the dominant SMD size for industrial control panel indicator rows — compact enough for dense key-switch matrices yet large enough to solder reliably by hand during rework. Yellow emission sits in the 585–595nm range, providing strong contrast against dark panel fascias under both incandescent and cool-white ambient lighting.

Designed for 20mA nominal drive at 1.6–2.4V forward voltage. Operating temperature −40°C to +85°C. Tape-and-reel packaging standard.

iBright Advantages

Yellow LEDs are particularly sensitive to chromaticity shift between production batches — a hue that reads as yellow in one lot can shift toward green or orange in another if the phosphor or die parameters vary. iBright sources S0603YL-CMH1 exclusively from a single CMH factory, eliminating multi-supplier bin mixing and delivering consistent yellow appearance across all purchase orders. This is especially important when indicators from multiple PCB assemblies are visible simultaneously on the same panel.

Application Notes

Yellow emission, 585–595nm typical. Catalog lists 620–630nm — confirm wavelength from CMH datasheet.
