Selection Guide:

Luminous intensity and luminous flux are within +/-15% tolerance.
Luminous intensity value is traceable to CIE127-2007 compliant national standards.
Absolute Maximum Ratings at TA=25°C:

Wavelength tolerance: +/-1nm.
Forward voltage tolerance: +/-0.1V.
Mounting and Soldering Guidelines:

Through-hole displays are not compatible with reflow soldering.
Mild "no-clean" fluxes are recommended for soldering.
Cleaning should be done with water only, avoiding harsh solvents.
Pre-heat temperature should be 105°C or less before solder wave immersion.
Maximum solder bath temperature: 260°C for 3 seconds (5 seconds max).
Circuit Design Notes:

Protective current-limiting resistors may be necessary.
LEDs in parallel should each have their own current-limiting resistor.
Design to protect against reverse voltages and transient spikes.
Choose safe operating current based on maximum ambient temperature.
Avoid prolonged reverse bias to prevent metal migration.
