Press Release Summary:
Series QTLP673C surface-mount PLCC-4 package LED lamps are top-illuminating, high-brightness lamps for interior automotive lighting and traffic management signals. Lamps sustain high drive current and produce colors with luminous intensity range of 178-920 mcds. Housing package has 3.2 x 2.8 mm footprint and 1.8 mm profile. Units feature clear optics, moisture-proof packaging, and 120° viewing angle with wide visual dispersion range.
Original Press Release:
Fairchild's New Ultra-Bright Surface-Mount LED Lamps are Ideal for Interior Automotive Lighting Applications
San Jose, CA - May 22, 2003 - Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE: FCS) announces the QTLP673C series of surface-mount PLCC-4 package LED lamps. The devices are top-illuminating, high-brightness lamps for interior automotive lighting applications, as well as traffic management signals and signage. The new products extend Fairchild's position as a leading supplier of ultra-bright LED lighting solutions for the automotive industry.
The QTLP673C series is capable of sustaining higher drive current while reducing thermal resistance, thereby producing
higher brightness in a wide range of colors. Red, Orange, Yellow, and Yellow-Orange lamps use AlInGaP technology to
produce typical luminous intensity of 700 to 800 mcd. InGaN technology is used to produce typical luminous intensity of
920 mcd for True Green and Cyan lamps and 178 mcd for Blue lamps. Solid state reliability and a long life cycle make
QTLP673C series lamps ideal alternatives to incandescent lamps in automotive and traffic lighting applications where
replacement of burned-out bulbs is inconvenient and expensive.
The QTLP673C series lamps are housed in a PLCC-4 surface mount package. The small size (3.2 x 2.8 mmn footprint) and low profile (1.8 mm height) make them highly applicable for PCB mounted back-lighting applications in dash boards, control consoles, signal lights and signs. Clear optics, moisture proof packaging, and a 120° viewing angle produces a bright, durable light source with a wide visual dispersion range. QTLP673C series lamps are capable of IR reflow and TTW soldering and available in a 0.315 inch 8 mm width tape on a 7 inch (180 mm) diameter reel in quantities of 2000 unit per reel.
The introduction of the QTLP673C series expands Fairchild's portfolio of products for automotive applications which also
include MOSFETs, IGBTs, and rectifiers. Fairchild provides solutions for high current load drive, LED lighting, IR sensing, and remote keyless entry (RKE) in automotive designs.
