Seoul Semiconductor, Launching Z-Power LED Z1 Series to Lighting Market with 30% Innovative Price Competitiveness



April 8, 2009

o Z1 series has 30% lower costs when compared to existing 100lm power LEDs.
o To expand the adoption of LEDs technology in general illumination lighting applications

Seoul Semiconductor Co., Ltd.(represented by Chung Hoon Lee, www.acriche.com), a global LED maker, announces the launch of the Z1 series of Z-Power LED. The Z1 series, intended for general illumination lighting products, provides a competitive advantage in performance and price, and expands Seoul Semiconductor's support of the general illumination lighting market.

To expand the adoption of LEDs technology in general illumination lighting applications, Seoul Semiconductor has launched the Z1 series of Z-Power LED. This is accomplish this adoption the Z1 series has the required output power coupled with an innovative advantage of approximately 30% lower costs when compared to existing 100lm power LEDs.

The Z1 series includes the NZ10150 (warm white color version) and the WZ10150 (pure or cool white color version) with luminous flux of up to 95 lm and 125 lm respectively, and typical luminous flux of 80 lm and 105 lm, respectively. The Z1 body of Z1 is comprised primarily of ceramic allowing high heat conductivity and a large-area heat slug to facilitate heat treatment.

The Z1 series enables both interior and exterior lighting fixtures and home appliances by offering a brighter light source at high temperature for a longer timeframe without sacrificing high reliability. The Z1 series is as slim as a credit card, with a 1.2mm thickness. This makes the Z1 series an optimal LED for numerous compact illumination products.

Other applications for the Z1 series, outside of general illumination, include surface emitting lightings like signs, displays, refrigeration lighting, under-cabinet, lighting for security, and built-in interior lighting.

Seoul Semiconductor's the launch of the Z1 series of Z-Power LED facilitates easy, compact, high-output, inexpensive, high-reliability LED lighting markets.
