Kingbright adds two narrow viewing angle SMD side firing series, the APPA3010 and the APDA1806, to further broaden its SMD LED collection. These two series feature superior performances with more luminosity output for applications that pair with light guides or light pipes.

The APPA3010 series has a popular industry footprint of 3.0 mm x 1.0 mm (W x H) with unforeseen brightness output (3X) and a 30° viewing angle. This series helps to avoid light bleeding issues from the early design stage, especially when multiple pieces are placed near each other.

The APDA1806 series is the compact version with a footprint of 1.8 mm x 0.6 mm (W x H). The low profile 0.6 mm height, 25° viewing angle, and 8X brightness output distinguish this series from traditional R/A SMD LEDs. Not only does this series help prevent light bleeding with its unique dome lens feature, but it also creates a crisp and sleek impression.
