LED pixel holder

31 March 2010 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

Tyco Electronics has launched a new ‘Star Board’ LED pixel holder which makes it fast and easy to integrate high-intensity LED packages into fixtures.

The holder simplifies application by addressing electrical, thermal and mechanical needs in a single solution – without solder and without the complexity of engineering separate thermal, electrical and mechanical subsystems.

Consisting of a cast aluminium heatsink, plastic locking ring and contact carrier, and tin-plated copper alloy contacts, the holder is available with a two-wire connection for single-colour LEDs and four-wire connection for RGB LEDs. The heatsink fits standard GU10/MR16 light fixtures for easy integration into higher-level assemblies for office, residential or architectural lighting.

The LED pixel holder works with LEDs rated up to 3 W without forced air cooling. For higher LED power ratings, forced air cooling or additional heat-sinking may be necessary. The assembly is rated for operating currents up to 2,5 A and voltages to 50 V d.c. With an operating temperature range from -40°C to 120°C, the pixel holder is suited for both indoor and outdoor applications. The electrical interface is standard 110 FASTON quick-disconnect tabs, which allows simple ‘plug-in’ compatibility with Class 2 wiring.
