Frequently Asked Questions
What is the forward voltage and current specification for the VLMU3500-385-060 ultraviolet LED?
The VLMU3500-385-060 is rated for a maximum forward voltage of 4 V and maximum forward current of 0.7 A. These specifications ensure reliable operation in UV curing and inspection applications while the integrated zener diode protects against voltage spikes and overcurrent conditions.
How does the VLMU3500-385-060 compare to standard visible-light LEDs for industrial inspection systems?
Unlike visible-light LEDs, the VLMU3500-385-060 emits ultraviolet light with 730 mcd luminous intensity from its water-clear lens, enabling detection of fluorescent markers and surface contamination invisible to human eyes. Its MIL-STD-883 compliance and surface-mount configuration make it suitable for demanding industrial quality assurance and medical sterilization verification.
What package type and mounting method does the VLMU3500-385-060 use?
The VLMU3500-385-060 features a surface-mount package with water-clear lens and single-function configuration, providing compact footprint integration for PCB layouts. The part includes built-in zener diode protection, and design files including schematic symbols, PCB footprints, and 3D models are available for download to streamline circuit design.
For UV curing applications, what current should the VLMU3500-385-060 be driven at for optimal lifetime?
The VLMU3500-385-060 supports peak operation at 0.7 A maximum forward current with a 4 V forward voltage drop. Operating near maximum ratings accelerates LED aging, so design engineers typically drive this UV LED at 0.5-0.6 A for extended lamp life while maintaining the 730 mcd output needed for reliable curing and inspection.
