Key Features
- Dual red/green bipolar common-terminal design allows both colors to be driven with a single 2-pin footprint by reversing current polarity, eliminating a separate LED and reducing BOM count
- 30 mA maximum forward current with 6.0 mcd (red) and 20.0 mcd (green) luminous intensity in a diffused milky-white lens for wide-angle, easy-to-read status indication
- Radial through-hole mount in a compact T-1 3/4 body enables front-panel or PCB-edge indicator placement compatible with standard 5 mm LED bezels and light-pipe assemblies
Applications
The SSF-LXH100MHGW is commonly used as a dual-color status indicator on industrial control panels, power supplies, and network equipment where a single LED must convey two operating states — for example, green for normal operation and red for fault or standby — using a bipolar drive circuit. Its 30 mA forward current and diffused milky-white lens provide uniform light output across a wide viewing angle, making it visible in brightly-lit factory environments. The through-hole radial package fits standard 5 mm LED mounting holes in panel-mount enclosures and front-panel PCBs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the bipolar common-terminal design of the SSF-LXH100MHGW allow dual-color operation from 2 pins?
The SSF-LXH100MHGW uses a common bipolar terminal configuration, meaning the red and green LED elements share a common lead and reverse polarity switching selects the active color. Applying forward current of up to 30 mA in one direction illuminates the green element (20.0 mcd), while reversing current direction illuminates the red element (6.0 mcd). This bipolar scheme allows a two-wire drive circuit to display two distinct status states without additional pins or multiplexing logic.
What luminous intensity values does the SSF-LXH100MHGW provide for red and green at rated current?
At nominal forward current, the SSF-LXH100MHGW emits 6.0 mcd in the red wavelength and 20.0 mcd in the green wavelength through its diffused milky-white lens. The green element is approximately 3× brighter than red, which is typical for dual-color LEDs since human eyes are more sensitive to green light at 520–565 nm. For balanced perceived brightness, a lower resistor value on the green drive circuit can equalize apparent intensity between the two colors.
What current limit and resistor value are needed to drive the SSF-LXH100MHGW from a 5V supply?
With a maximum forward current of 30 mA and a typical forward voltage of 2.0V (red) or 2.2V (green), driving SSF-LXH100MHGW from a 5V supply requires a current-limiting resistor of approximately (5V − 2.1V) / 20 mA = 145Ω, with a standard 150Ω value recommended for a safe 19 mA operating point. Running below the 30 mA maximum extends LED life and keeps junction temperature within the component's rated range.
Can the SSF-LXH100MHGW be mounted in standard 5 mm LED panel bezels for front-panel indicators?
Yes, the SSF-LXH100MHGW uses a standard T-1 3/4 radial through-hole body that fits 5 mm LED mounting holes and commercial LED bezels for front-panel or enclosure-wall mounting. Its two radial leads fit standard 2.54 mm pitch PCB holes, and the diffused milky-white lens provides approximately 60° half-angle viewing, making it readable from off-axis positions typical in rack-mount and benchtop instrument panel designs.
