⚠️ Electrical & Thermal Design Notes

• Drive with a constant-current LED driver set to 600–700 mA. Do not connect directly to a power rail or I/O pin.
• Ensure the supply meets the forward voltage of 3.2–3.4 V at the chosen drive current; include adequate headroom for your driver.
• Provide proper thermal management (heatsink/MCPCB and airflow) to maintain reliability and luminous output.
• Supports PWM dimming via the driver for brightness control from a microcontroller.
• Observe ESD precautions and correct polarity during assembly and soldering.

🔧 Integration Tips

• For development, pair with a constant-current driver module compatible with Arduino/Raspberry Pi control signals.
• Use an aluminum-core PCB (star base) or copper slug/heatsink for optimal thermal conduction.
• Verify optical needs: 120° beam angle can be focused with secondary optics/lenses if required.
