COB LED for indoor and outdoor lighting

8 October 2014 Opto-Electronics

Having a light-emitting surface of only 6 mm in diameter, the new Soleriq P 6 is the smallest light-emitting diode (LED) in OSRAM Opto Semiconductors’ product family based on chip-on-board (CoB) technology.

With this new LED and an adapted version of Soleriq P 9, the company now offers two CoB LEDs with colour rendering index (CRI) of 80, which are suitable for outdoor lighting applications such as parking lots and walkways.

The P 6’s small light-emitting surface (LES) means that extremely compact and therefore lightweight optics can be fitted for highly compact spotlights. The spotlights can therefore be significantly smaller and more cost-effective, while still providing the same luminous intensity.

The luminous intensity for adequate pavement lighting, for example, can be achieved by just one Soleriq P 6. Implemented in outdoor applications such as parking lighting, the defined radiation area enables walkways to be perfectly illuminated and reduces light pollution. The LEDs are also highly resistant to corrosion caused by poor environmental conditions.

The CRI 80 version can be used in typical spotlights for directional indoor lighting as well. For shop and museum lighting in particular, the Soleriq P 6 is also available in a CRI 90 version.

LEDs based on chip-on-board technology are easy to process. The new P 6 does not require SMT soldering as part of the assembly process – adhesive or holders are sufficient. All of these accessories tailored for the product family are available on the market, including from experts in OSRAM’s partner network.
