High brightness on surface mount LEDs.
Agilent Technologies has introduced a series of surface-mount LEDs designed and qualified specifically for automobile interior and exterior lighting applications.
Hot-pluggable transceiver for Fibre Channel
Agilent Technologies has announced volume availability of its 2Gbit/s small-form-pluggable (SFP) fibre-optic transceiver for Fibre Channel storage area networks (SANs).
The Agilent HSMx-A43xx series LEDs are targeted at automotive lighting, outdoor electronic signs and signals, and other applications requiring highly reliable light sources.
They complement Agilent's previously introduced Power PLCC-4 LEDs, with 120-degree, ultrawide viewing angles.
The 30-degree viewing angle allows Agilent's SMT LEDs to meet many design requirements for interior automotive applications, such as door lighting and instrument clusters, as well as exterior automotive applications, such as turn signal lamps, brake lights and side markers.
These LEDs are also an excellent choice for applications in the electronic signs and signals field, such as traffic lights, marker lights and signboards.
"We are pleased to expand our family of high-brightness, reliable PLCC-4 LEDs to offer our customers the choice of a super-wide 120-degree or a focused 30-degree viewing angle in a wide range of colours", said Cheng Kai Chong, worldwide marketing manager for the Optoelectronic Products Division in Agilent's Semiconductor Products Group.
"Our customers prefer the one-stop shopping we're able to provide, and they value Agilent's legendary quality and industry-best lead time".
The PLCC-4 SMT LEDs are supplied in Agilent's reliable and optically efficient packages, and operate over a -40 to +100C temperature range to assure reliability in harsh automotive and outdoor environments.
To facilitate easy pick-and-place assembly, the LEDs are packed in EIA-compliant tape and reel.
Every reel will be shipped in a single intensity and colour bin (except for red) to provide the uniformity required by automotive lighting designers.
These LEDs are compatible with both the infrared solder reflow and through-the-wave soldering processes.
Samples and production quantities (four-week guaranteed lead-time) are available now through Agilent's direct sales channels and worldwide distribution partners. Request a free brochure from Avago Technologies ...
