3 W power LED module for lighting

5 October 2005 Opto-Electronics

BivarOpto has introduced a new 3 W LED module designed for the emerging solid state lighting (SSL) market. The unit can be used in a wide range of lighting and backlighting applications, from portable lighting, flashlights and backlighting LCD computer monitors and television screens, to signalling, architectural, landscaping and entertainment/outdoor signage.

Based on Cree's XLamp technology, Bivar's LK3 Series is provided in a compact ready-to-use module that is packaged onto a metal core PCB (MCPCB) base without epoxy. This gives it good thermal characteristics while also providing an electrically-neutral thermal path. Capable of offering up to 130% more colour gamut for greater colour saturation while providing up to 90 lumens (lm) output, the module is self contained with an integrated domed lens.

The LK3 can operate in temperatures from -40 to +85°C and can withstand ESD >2000 V per Mil-Std-883D. Viewing angle is 100°, with full spectrum wavelengths available from 465 nm to 635 nm, and also in white to 8000K. Maximum IF rating is 700 mA.
