Super-bright red LEDs with special oval lens

6 April 2006 Opto-Electronics

Vishay Intertechnology has introduced six new Telux series clear, non-diffused red LEDs that feature what it believes is one of the world's brightest AlInGaP on GaAs (OMA) technologies. It is constructed with a special oval lens that reduces the number and cost of LEDs required in automotive and other lighting applications.

Designed for applications requiring utmost luminous flux, these LEDs provide broad illumination that enables more efficient lighting for traffic signals, signs and exterior lighting, as well as for motor vehicles. They also can serve as replacements for small incandescent lamps.

Available in an industry-standard 7,62 mm square package, the super-bright LEDs feature superior heat dissipation of 90 K/W, which in turn allows for a high operating temperature range of -40 to +110°C. Luminous intensity ratings are: >3000 mlm, >3500 mlm, and >4000 mlm, available with a 25 x 68 or 40 x 90 angle of half intensity.

All six of the red LEDs meet SAE and ECE colour requirements for automotive applications and are rated for ESD resistivity of 2 kV (HBM).
