| Avago announces new high-brightness LED emitter Avago Technologies announced a low-profile 3-Watt high power white surface mount light emitting diode emitter for use in a wide range of solid-state lighting applications. Avago's new ASMT-MW20 Power LED emitter is capable of being driven at high currents to deliver up to 160 lumens of illumination. It provides an energy efficient and robust high output light source for designers of portable, architectural, decorative and backlighting applications. Typical applications for the ASMT-MW20 include torch lights and miner headlights, billboard and sign backlighting, accent lighting, architectural facade lighting, street lights, reading and track lights, and lighting for machine vision equipment. This new SMT LED emitter from Avago can be driven to a high current of 700 mA to deliver up to 160 lm of light output, which is 40 percent brighter than competing LED emitters to offer the industry's best lumens per watt efficiency. Moreover, the high drive current capabilities and high-brightness provided by the ASMT-MW20 Power LED emitter makes it an ideal solution for solid-state lighting applications that require a high output light source where space is limited. Avago's ASMT-MW20 Power LEDs incorporates InGaN technology to offer low thermal resistance which allows it to efficiently transfer heat from the package to the motherboard thereby maintaining long term device reliability. This LED emitter features a low-profile design, which is extremely suitable in places where height is a constraint. It is compatible with standard available surface mount technology reflow soldering processes. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
