Instructions for Use:

1. Mounting:

   • Ensure the LED is mounted with the correct polarity.
   • Use a flat surface to mount the LED to ensure good thermal contact.

2. Electrical Connections:

   • Connect the anode (longer lead) to the positive terminal.
   • Connect the cathode (shorter lead or flat side) to the negative terminal.

3. Forward Current:

   • Do not exceed the maximum forward current (I_F) of 30 mA continuously.
   • For pulse operation, do not exceed 150 mA for short durations.

4. Reverse Voltage:

   • The reverse breakdown voltage (V_BR) should not be exceeded to prevent damage.

5. Thermal Management:

   • Ensure adequate heat dissipation to keep the operating temperature within the specified range (-40°C to 85°C).

6. Environmental Conditions:

   • Store the LED in a dry environment to prevent moisture damage.
   • Ensure the storage temperature does not exceed 100°C.

7. Handling:

   • Handle the LED with care to avoid mechanical stress.
   • Use anti-static precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge damage.

8. Optical Considerations:

   • The viewing angle is typically between 60° and 70°. Position the LED accordingly to achieve the desired light distribution.

9. Testing:

   • Test the LED at room temperature using a current-limited power supply to avoid exceeding the maximum ratings.

10. Compliance:

    • Ensure the LED complies with all relevant safety and regulatory standards for your application.
