SelectionCharacteristics
Style: Indicates the form factor for the part.
Color: Describes the color(s) of the backlight.
Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Typ): Characterizes the voltage drop across a forward-biased diode, measured at the test current indicated.
Current - Test: Indicates the amount of current flow through a device used by a manufacturer as a test condition for characterization of one or more other device parameters.
Output: Indicates the amount of candela per square metre emitted from the part.
CCT (K) Features: Characterizes the perceived color of the nominally white light produced by a phosphor material when excited with a specified illuminant, in terms of comparison to an ideal blackbody radiator. Materials with lower values appear more yellow, those with higher values appear more blue.
Termination Style: Indicataes the form factor of electrical connection. Examples would be connector, PC pins, solder, and wire leads.
Size/Dimension: The overall length, width, and height of the part.
Operating Temperature: Recommended operating temperature, typically given in a range or as a maximum. Exceeding these temperatures may affect performance or damage the device and other system components.
