Handling Precautions:

Use a wrist band or anti-electrostatic glove when handling the LEDs to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge.
Ensure all devices, equipment, and machinery are electrically grounded.
Recommended Soldering Profile:

Pre-heat temperature of 105°C or less before solder wave immersion.
Maximum solder bath temperature of 260°C for 3-5 seconds.
Avoid stressing the epoxy resin above 85°C.
Use SAC 305 solder alloy for optimal results.
Cleaning Instructions:

Use mild "no-clean" fluxes for soldering.
If cleaning is necessary, wash components with water only, avoiding harsh organic solvents.
Clean at room temperature and limit washing to one minute.
Remove excess moisture with forced-air drying immediately after cleaning.
Packaging & Label Specifications:

Through-hole display mounting method with proper lead forming techniques.
Ensure proper installation without applying stress to lead terminals.
Circuit Design Notes:

Consider protective current-limiting resistors for LED operation within specified limits.
Design the driving circuit to protect against reverse voltages and transient spikes.
Choose safe operating current based on maximum ambient temperature.
