Open LED Protector increases LED lighting array reliability.

Available in DO-214 or QFN SMT package, PLED-® 6 Series provides switching electronic shunt path when single LED in LED array fails as open circuit. This ensures entire array of LEDs will continue to function, even if one LED in array does not. In addition to built-in surge immunity, protector has 4-layered thyristor structure that automatically resets if LED heals itself or is replaced....
