Key Features
- Dual separate LED elements in one radial package for compact 2-channel status indication
- Diffused red lens provides wide viewing angle for easy status visibility from multiple directions
- 20 mA maximum forward current and 2.8 V forward voltage compatible with standard 3.3 V and 5 V logic drive circuits
- Radial through-hole mounting for reliable PCB assembly with mechanical stability in vibration-prone environments
Applications
H301CRD-100 is used as a dual-channel status indicator in industrial control panels, power supplies, and embedded system front panels where two independent red LED signals must be displayed from a single compact through-hole component. Its diffused lens ensures wide-angle visibility in dimly lit equipment enclosures, making it well-suited for alarm indicators, fault warning displays, and power-on status lights. The radial mounting style and 20 mA drive compatibility also make it popular in consumer appliances, test equipment, and educational electronics kits.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the forward current and voltage specifications of H301CRD-100 and how should drive resistors be calculated?
H301CRD-100 has a maximum forward current of 20 mA and a maximum forward voltage of 2.8 V per LED element. For a 5 V supply, a series resistor of approximately 110 Ω ((5 V - 2.0 V) / 20 mA) limits current to the rated 20 mA, while for a 3.3 V rail a 65 Ω resistor achieves similar current. Typical operating current of 10 mA to 15 mA is recommended to balance brightness and component longevity in panel indicator designs.
How does having 2 separate LED elements in H301CRD-100 benefit front panel indicator designs?
With 2 independently controllable red LED elements in a single radial package, H301CRD-100 allows a designer to drive two separate status signals — such as power OK and fault — from one through-hole footprint rather than using two discrete LEDs. This reduces PCB space and component count while maintaining independent 20 mA drive capability for each element, simplifying layout in compact front panel indicator rows.
What luminous intensity does H301CRD-100 produce and is it sufficient for panel visibility in bright ambient light?
H301CRD-100 produces a nominal luminous intensity of 2.0 mcd per element through its diffused red lens, which provides adequate visibility in typical indoor industrial and laboratory environments at normal viewing distances of 30 cm to 100 cm. For brightly lit outdoor or high-ambient-light panel installations, higher-intensity LEDs in the 100 mcd to 1000 mcd range would be preferred, but for standard indoor control panels and equipment enclosures, 2.0 mcd is functional at 20 mA drive.
How does H301CRD-100's diffused lens compare to a clear lens version for status indicator applications?
The diffused lens on H301CRD-100 scatters light across a wide viewing cone, typically greater than 60 degrees half-angle, making the red indicator visible from oblique angles without requiring the viewer to look directly at the LED. In contrast, a clear lens concentrates the 2.0 mcd intensity into a narrower beam, which can appear brighter on-axis but is much harder to see at angles greater than 20 to 30 degrees — making the diffused variant preferable for front panel status indicators viewed from multiple positions.
