Lumileds Introduces Brightest RGB LED Module
0.5W module is building block for applications demanding consistent, brilliant colour
Lumileds has introduced the Luxeon MultiColor Module 0.5W, a module that produces the highest luminous intensity of reds, greens and blues with what is claimed to be the industry’s most consistent colour.
The module comprises a 3-in-1 RGB in a standard 3535 PLCC6 package. The module produces red light of 1,000 mcd, green light of 2,300 mcd and blue light of 500 mcd at 20 mA drive current (typical Vf of 2,1, 2.8 and 3.0V, respectively).
Reliability is said to be a key differentiator for the Luxeon MultiColor Module 0.5W. Testing in hydrogen sulphide environment reveals superior maintenance of flux and forward voltage of the red, green and blue LEDs.
“Long term performance in the application depends on a robust, reliable package design and in this arena, Lumileds stands alone,” said Jennifer Holland, product line director of Lumileds. The compact module features a black matte surface, a flat light-emitting surface and water resistant design (IPX8 rating), for use in a number of video wall and illumination applications.
