White Diffused Lens
Available in Flange (F) and Shouldered (Blank) Lead Frame
styles
3-Lead Bi-Color LED
Ideal for Status Indication and Display
Bivar 5mm T1 ¾ Package Tri-Color LED is ideal for those applications where multiple signals need to
be displayed at the same location such as standby-on indication for server or computer peripherals.
When needed, the 3rd color signal could be created by powering up both chips together for on-off-
standy applications that require three distinct signals. Bivar offers white diffused LED lens for uniform
light output. The Flange LED is ideal for Panel Mount Clip & Ring assemblies and the Shouldered
Lead frame LED has a built in strain relief feature which is ideal for Right Angle Holder assemblies that
require lead bends. This 3-Lead Bi-Color LED package comes in a common cathode Lead Frame con-
figuration.
