## Pinout

| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | K | passive | Cathode (negative terminal, marked by the cathode mark on the package); continuous forward current max 25 mA, reverse voltage max 5 V. |
| 2 | A | passive | Anode (positive terminal); forward voltage 1.7 V to 2.3 V at IF = 20 mA, so a series resistor is required. |

## CAD (KiCad official)

- Symbol: `MHT170CGCT`
- Footprint: `LED_SMD:LED_0805_2012Metric`
- 3D model: 0805 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
- 3D model files: `mht170cgct-etched.step` / `mht170cgct-etched.glb` carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable `Adom.LaserEtch` group (Fusion-ready); `mht170cgct.step` / `mht170cgct.glb` are the bare package body.
