■ Design Notes
1. Do not allow the circuit design to apply any reverse voltage to the LEDs at any time, operating or not. Do not
bias this part in any manner when it is not operating.
2. This part can be easily damaged by external stress. Make sure they are not mechanically stressed during or
after assembly.
3. This product uses blue LED chips in combination with yellow phosphor to achieve its color. There may be some
slight color change due to afterglow of the phosphor when driving this part with pulsed power.
4. This part has a high light output. Looking directly at it during full power output may cause injury.
5. Sharp recommends taking proper personal and environmental static control precautions when handling this part.
6. Materials of high thermal conductivity are incorporated in this device to allow generated heat to be effectively
transferred from it to the circuit board. For best reliability, Sharp recommends against locating other sources of
heat near the LED, and to design the circuit board in such a way that heat can easily escape from the circuit
board. Sharp also recommends designing the circuit board so that the part’s case temperature is always kept
under 100°C (when the LED is turned on) including self-heating.
7. Sharp recommends handling these parts in a clean, non-dusty environment since surface dust may be difficult
to remove and can affect the optical performance of the part.
8. Sharp recommends confirming the part’s performance, reliability, and resistance to any of these conditions, if it
is to be used in any of these environments:
• Direct sunlight, outdoor exposure, dusty conditions
• In water, oil, medical fluids, and organic solvents
• Excessive moisture, such as dew or condensation
• Corrosive (salt) air or corrosive gases, such as Cl, H2S, NH3, SO2, NOX
