Description / PLCC-4 SMD Cool White - Ultra Bright 1210 / 3528 LED

The PLCC-4 (3528) Cool White SMD LED packs three LED chips into the same 3.5 × 2.8mm footprint as the PLCC-2 — significantly more output from the same board space. Four solder pads (vs two on PLCC-2) connect the three chips independently.

PackagePLCC-4 (3528) — 3 chips, SMD surface mount
Forward Voltage3.0-3.2v
Brightness2300mcd
Viewing Angle120 Degrees
LensDiffused
Drive Current20mA typical

PLCC-4 vs PLCC-2: Same body size (3.5 × 2.8mm) but PLCC-4 has four pads and three internal chips vs two pads and one chip. PLCC-4 is brighter but not always a direct drop-in for PLCC-2 pads — verify your PCB footprint has four pads before ordering.

Common uses:

  • Instrument cluster and HVAC backlighting upgrade — drop into PLCC-2 pads for a brightness boost (check pad compatibility — 4 pads vs 2)
  • Mechanical keyboard RGB underglow and per-key backlighting — some custom keyboard PCBs specify PLCC-4 for higher output
  • Aquarium and reef lighting arrays — higher output per chip for DIY fixture builds
  • Automotive accent lighting PCBs where maximum brightness per footprint matters

DC power recommended: LEDs are designed for DC. Running on AC will cause flickering and reduce lifespan. If you're using a low-voltage AC source — such as a model railroad transformer output or DCC track voltage — convert it to DC first with a bridge rectifier.

Sold individually (1 LED per quantity ordered).
