Customized Standard LED Display Example – Modifying the Emitting Color Priority

  Let’s take the Standard 3-digit 7-segment LED display, OPS-T3010SE-GW, as an example. Suppose you wish to change the emitting color of DIG.3 from red to white (indicated by the red rectangle in the image below). To estimate the customization, please send your inquiry to OPTO PLUS LED Corp. The tooling fee, primarily for PCB re-layout, is approximately 10-20% of the cost of a fully custom design. The Minimum Order Quantity for this request is 3,000-10,000 pieces.
