Compact form factor at the same time

Sharp notes the new LED components are made for the use in versatile application areas, which require a high amount of brightness with a compact form factor at the same time. This gives designers more freedom and flexibility when creating illumination systems. Besides common applications such as backlighting for LCDs or keypads chip LEDs are used for example for general illumination, surgical spotlights, as status signals for industrial applications and for indoor mood lamps as well.Due to different phosphor mixtures the LEDs reach a colour rendering index (CRI) of up to 90 for a highly genuine reproduction of colours and details, Colour temperatures of white led high bay light are in the range of 2.200K to 11.500K.They are available with radiation angles of 120° and 130°. The white LEDs generate a light output of up to 6.4 cd at a power consumption of 0.01 to 0.2 W.

In any case the white light LED chips are of convincingly compact design, as standard 3228 package with a height of 1.9 mm and 0.9 mm as well as ultra small package of 1.6 x 0.8 mm with a minimum height of 0.2 mm. Since they require only so little space the white LEDs are predestined to replace conventional lamps in commercial applications like shop and decoration lighting. But they will be also used as an illuminant in solar driven and normal streetlights.Furthermore, Sharp is offering brick-shaped multi-chip SMD LEDs, so called Flash Bricks that can be processed by reflow soldering. Despite their small size dimensions of 2.6 x 1.6 x 0.7 mm they provide a high light performance of up to 39 lumen. They are particularly suited for applications which require a high brightness providing only little space for design-in at the same time. Flash LEDs as well as Side Shoot LEDs which are used for mobile phones and other portable application will complete the line-up of white light LEDs.

The factory will replace a much smaller lighting factory

Felder has a comprehensive knowledge of the field of optosemiconductors and decades of management experience with prominent players in the electronics industry.Since 2003, he has filled various management roles in the areas of OLED and LED technology with Osram, where as senior vice president of sales he was lastly responsible for Osram’s worldwide general lighting sales activities. Zumtobel Group CEO Harald Sommerer thinks highly of Felder, “We are delighted that, in Alfred Felder, we have been able to recruit a highly experienced technology expert and far-sighted manager to head up our Components business. With his extensive knowledge of LED and OLED technology, his familiarity with the industry and his leadership skills, he will be able to play a major part in ensuring that Tridonic is fit for the future in this dynamic phase of the technology shift.” The factory will replace a much smaller lighting factory and will include a production shop and an admininstrative block, as well as ...

Innovation in Lighting Symposia and the Lightning Award Presentation

Our show is an example of how co-operating with an international partner, together with a sizeable show investment year after year, benefits the lighting industry," Dr. Pan continued. “We are totally committed to supporting the growth of China's lighting industry. We provide a sales and marketing platform for exhibitors and a forum for industry knowledge exchange. During this year's show we will organise more than 30 seminars, conferences and matchmaking opportunities that suit all levels of lighting professionals. These include special information days featuring China, Taiwan and Japan, the Lighting Design Gallery, Guangzhou international Lighting Technology Symposium, Innovation in Lighting Symposia and the Lightning Award Presentation." Guangzhou Guangya Messe Frankfurt is totally committed to the exchange of industry knowledge to support the growth of China's lighting industry. For example, the close connection with the popular “Alighting” website, magazine...

Despite Nichia planned to enter into LED markets in China

This emerging potential for green LED applications follows on the heels of an announcement of applications for blue LEDs on April 25, 2012. NGK is now poised to apply its technology to the inverters used in hybrid and electric vehicles, power amplifiers for base stations of wireless communication, and other power devices. To this end, NGK will take steps to further reduce defect density for its GaN wafers, and to produce larger wafers that are greater than 6 inches in diameter. Despite Nichia planned to enter into LED markets in China and enlarge its market share there, it has been foiled by simmering anti-Japan sentiment in China due mainly to the Diaoyutai island issue, so is considering to cooperate with Taiwanese enterprises for further development. And two Taiwanese companies, including Hon Hai Group and Epistar, will be part of the joint venture. According to senior Nichia executives and based on positive outlook towards widespread use of LED lighting, the firm focused on the amp...
