can be judged against other tested LEDs on an equal scale

Standardization has become a key factor in LED adoption in the global lighting market - not only in safety standards and performance standards but also more importantly, in reliability and lifetime testing. LM80 is the lighting standard by which all major LED manufacturers are complying with for lumen maintenance testing. It is a standardized test method of at least 6,000 hours and at certain controlled conditions that is required of all lighting LEDs so that each LED tested, regardless of manufacturer, can be judged against other tested LEDs on an equal scale and compared.

SSL is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd (TSMC), one of world’s largest semiconductor manufacturers. Inheriting TSMC’s expertise in semiconductor manufacturing and rigorous quality control processes, TSMC SSL has announced several types of LED emitters that feature extraordinarily high performance brightness, efficacy, and light quality.

Cnlight, one of the most respected lighting brands and lighting product manufacturers in China, is committed to the development of reliable and advanced lighting products and owns nearly 200 domestic and overseas patents. Through this strategic relationship, Cnlight will incorporate TSMC SSL’s LED emitters into its products while TSMC SSL provides Cnlight with full support to develop future innovative lighting products. In addition to general lighting, TSMC SSL and Cnlight will evaluate opportunities to cooperate in R&D for plant and automotive lighting.

LED recessed downlighting options for general lighting in commercial

Cooper Lighting, a division of Cooper Industries plc (NYSE: CBE), has expanded its Halo LED H7 Collection offering additional choices in LED color temperatures and higher lumen options. The 6” LED downlight product line expansion–from the original Halo LED 600 Series–now includes the Halo LED 900 Series and Halo LED 1200 Series, offering a wide and versatile selection of energy-efficient LED recessed downlighting options for general lighting in commercial, retail, institutional and residential applications. Designed for new construction projects or to retrofit existing 6” nominal compatible housings (with an Edison screw base adapter included with the module), the Halo LED H7 Collection features excellent color rendering (80 CRI) and offers the industry’s widest selection of color temperatures (2700K, 3000K, 3500K and 4000K). The superior optical design yields productive beam lumens providing smooth, even illumination, excellent cutoff and extremely low glare. Consuming less than 15W, ...

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 ...

Entertainment applications will adopt the new LEDs

The number and breadth of applications that require amber LEDs is tremendous,” said Frank Harder, VP of Product Marketing at Philips Lumileds. “Markets including automotive, entertainment, roadway, signaling, and many others use amber LEDs. With better efficiency and more light output, LUXEON Rebel PC amber makes it that much easier to reduce energy consumption with an environmentally friendly product.lamps to LEDs because they didn’t produce enough light and couldn’t operate effectively at higher temperatures. With the advances provided by LUXEON Rebel PC Amber, yellow traffic signals will be converted, warning lights and beacons on vehicles and obstructions will switch and entertainment applications will adopt the new LEDs. numbers of amber LEDs. With LUXEON Rebel PC Amber, manufacturers will be able to use fewer LEDs and lower other component costs because of the improved light output and particularly the stable color over temperature, something that has been problematic for many ...
