What does the suffix mean on the Osram parts. 0-20-R18
It is not present on the data sheets. The Data Sheets nomenclature ends or lists the part as
LG Q396-PS-35 yet the full part on DIgiKey is LG Q396-PS-35-0-20-R18.
I know R18 is the package. Does OSRAM Have a NEW Data Sheet calling out this full part # and how the part is marked?
Hello,
Welcome to DigiKey’s TechForum.
I found a TechForum entry, that explains the callouts:
So for your part number suffixes:
’0’ is a forward voltage range single group. Since there is always some variance in a voltage or current spec, and this is especially important in LEDs, they are grouped within a range. There are actually subgroups to this.
’20’ is a current grouping. This is much the same as the voltage grouping.
’R18’ is a packing indicator. In this case, it is referring to a 180mm reel as packed by the manufacturer. We can, of course, choose to sell that in smaller quantities as cut-tape.
Thank you
Ryan
