OPTEK Develops Low Profile, Full Color RGB LED with 150° Viewing Angle
CARROLLTON, TX (January 11, 2008) - Providing lighting design engineers with a
full color device ideal for applications with limited PC board space, TT electronics OPTEK Technology has developed a surface mount RGB LED with a 150° viewing angle.
Designated the OVSRRGBCC3, the 3 separate diodes are housed in a miniature surface mount package that is compatible with both automatic pick and place equipment as well as infrared and vapor phase solder reflow processes.
"The 1204 package size provides customers with the option of mounting the LED as a
top-emitting or side-emitting device," said Richard Saffa, vice president of OPTEK
Technology's Visible LED Business Unit. "The mounting options and miniature size make the LED package ideal for a variety of applications, particularly those with limited board space such as handheld applications."
The OVSRRGBCC3 LED is specified for use in automotive dashboard and switch
backlighting, telecommunications backlighting in telephones and faxes, and flat backlighting for LCDs, switches and symbols.
The full-color surface mount LED package is composed of a red, green and blue LED
with a white diffused lens. The red LED features AllnGaP material with a typical intensity of 125mcd. The green and blue LEDs utilize InGaN material and feature typical intensities of 300mcd and 75mcd, respectively. The red LED has continuous forward current of 30mA with a power dissipation of 78mW. Continuous forward current for the green and blue LEDs is 20mA and power dissipation is 84mW. Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.
The OVSRRGBCC3 LED package measures 3.2mm x 1.0mm, with a height of 1.5mm. Typical pricing for the OVSRRGBCC3 surface mount LED starts at $0.57 each in quantities of 10,000 pieces. Production quantity lead times, if stock is not available, are 8 weeks.
