LAS VEGAS, NV (May 28, 2008) - Providing design engineers with a complete solid state lighting solution, TT electronics OPTEK Technology has developed the Power Line design kit. Designated the OVPL5W3K Series, the kit includes FR4 PC boards populated with three 0.5-watt white LEDs, along with a wire harness with connector, and a hand insertion tool. With the addition of a 15-volt power supply, the Power Line Kit is a total lighting solution.

"As a flexible and scalable lighting solution providing high luminous flux with no additional heatsink requirements, the kit enables lighting designers to configure LED placement for uniform illumination in any lighting application," said Alan Bennett, vice president of sales and marketing for OPTEK Technology.

Typical applications for the Power Line include architectural accent lighting, undercounter lighting, media illumination, large channel-letter lighting, light box backlighting and point-of-sale displays.

The Power Line design kit consists of five PC boards measuring 8" x 7/16". Each board features three 0.5W white LEDs with a viewing angle of 120°, typical CCT of 5000K and typical luminous flux of 50lm per board @ 15V (125mA per board). Additional individual board assemblies are available (OPTEK part number OPA733).
