ALMD-CY3F-YZ002
High Brightness SMT Round White LED Lamps
Overview
The new Broadcom® ALMD-CY3F series is essentially like
a conventional high brightness through-hole LED in the form
of a surface mount device. It can be assembled using
common SMT assembly processes and is compatible with
industrial soldering processes.
The LEDs are made with an advanced optical grade epoxy
for superior performance in outdoor sign applications. For
easy pick-and-place assembly, the LEDs are packed in a
tape and reel format. Every reel is shipped in single intensity
and color bin to ensure uniformity.
Features

CAUTION!
This LED is ESD sensitive. Please observe appropriate precautions during handling and processing. Refer to application
note AN-1142 for additional details.
The LED must be kept in a moisture barrier bag with < 5% relative humidity (RH) when not in use because prolonged
exposure to the environment might cause the leads to tarnish or rust, which might cause difficulties in soldering.

Precautionary Notes
Handling Precautions
Soldering
Do not perform reflow soldering more than twice.
Observe necessary precautions of handling moisturesensitive devices as stated in the following section.
Do not apply any pressure or force on the LED during
reflow and after reflow when the LED is still hot.
Use reflow soldering to solder the LED. Use hand
soldering only for rework if unavoidable, but it must be
strictly controlled to following conditions:
– Soldering iron tip temperature = 315°C maximum
– Soldering duration = 3s maximum
– Number of cycles = 1 only
– Power of soldering iron = 50W maximum
Do not touch the LED package body with the soldering
iron except for the soldering terminals, because it may
cause damage to the LED.
Confirm beforehand whether the functionality and
performance of the LED is affected by soldering with
hand soldering.
For automated pick-and-place, Broadcom has tested the
following nozzle size to work well with this LED. However,
due to the possibility of variations in other parameters, such
as pick-and-place machine maker/model, and other settings
of the machine, verify that the selected nozzle will not cause
damage to the LED.

ALMD-CY3F-YZ002 Data Sheet
Handling of Moisture-Sensitive Devices
High Brightness SMT Round White LED Lamps
The soldering terminals of these Broadcom LEDs are
silver plated. If the LEDs are exposed in ambient
environments for too long, the silver plating might be
oxidized, thus affecting its solderability performance. As
such, keep unused LEDs in a sealed MBB with
desiccant or in a desiccator at < 5% RH.
This product has a Moisture Sensitive Level 3 rating per
JEDEC J-STD-020. Refer to Broadcom Application Note
AN5305, Handling of Moisture Sensitive Surface Mount
Devices for additional details and a review of proper
handling procedures.
Before use:
– An unopened moisture barrier bag (MBB) can be
stored at < 40°C/90% RH for 12 months. If the actual
shelf life has exceeded 12 months and the humidity
indicator card (HIC) indicates that baking is not
required, it is safe to reflow the LEDs per the original
MSL rating.
– Do not open the MBB prior to assembly (for
example, for IQC). If unavoidable, the MBB must be
properly resealed with fresh desiccant and HIC. The
exposed duration must be taken in as floor life.
Control after opening the MBB:
– Read the HIC immediately upon opening of MBB.
– Keep the LEDs at < 30°C/60% RH at all times, and
complete all high temperature-related processes,
including soldering, curing, or rework within 168 hours.
Control for unfinished reel:
Application Precautions
Store unused LEDs in a sealed MBB with desiccant or a
desiccator at < 5% RH.
Control of assembled boards:
If the PCB soldered with the LEDs is to be subjected to
other high-temperature processes, store the PCB in a
sealed MBB with desiccant or desiccator at < 5% RH to
ensure that all LEDs have not exceeded their floor life of
168 hours.
Baking is required if:
– The HIC indicator indicates a change in color for
10% and 5%, as stated on the HIC.
– The LEDs are exposed to conditions of > 30°C/60%
RH at any time.
– The LED's floor life exceeded 168 hours.
The recommended baking condition is: 60°C ± 5ºC for
20 hours.
Baking can only be done once.
Broadcom
Storage:
The drive current of the LED must not exceed the
maximum allowable limit across temperature as stated
in the data sheet. Constant current driving is
recommended to ensure consistent performance.
Circuit design must cater to the whole range of forward
voltage (VF) of the LEDs to ensure the intended drive
current can always be achieved.
The LED exhibits slightly different characteristics at
different drive currents, which may result in a larger
variation of performance (meaning: intensity,
wavelength, and forward voltage). Set the application
current as close as possible to the test current to
minimize these variations.
The LED is not intended for reverse bias. Use other
appropriate components for such purposes. When
driving the LED in matrix form, ensure that the reverse
bias voltage does not exceed the allowable limit of the
LED.
White LEDs must not be exposed to acidic
environments and must not be used in the vicinity of
any compound that may have acidic outgas, such as,
but not limited to, acrylate adhesive. These
environments have an adverse effect on LED
performance.
As actual application might not be exactly similar to the
test conditions, do verify that the LED will not be
damaged by prolonged exposure in the intended
environment.
Avoid rapid changes in ambient temperature, especially
in high-humidity environments, because they cause
condensation on the LED.
If the LED is intended to be used in harsh or outdoor
environments, protect the LED against damages
caused by rain water, water, dust, oil, corrosive gases,
external mechanical stresses, and so on.

Eye Safety Precautions
LEDs may pose optical hazards when in operation. Do not
look directly at operating LEDs because it might be harmful
to the eyes. For safety reasons, use appropriate shielding or
personal protective equipment.
