White LEDs shed light on new applications
Developed as a result of an extensive research programme, the OptiLED range of high performance white LED lamps is now available from Forge Europa.
Package styles currently available are 3 and 5mm round, with viewing angles from 15 to 35 degrees, and a number of elliptical devices.
The small elliptical LEDs have very impressive performance characteristics with viewing angles of 100/50 degrees.
The company has also recently introduced an extensive range of square LEDs in domed and flat lens options, with 115-degree viewing angles in two dimensions, making these devices ideally suited to switch top and fascia illumination.
Examples of wavelength and performance options available include: 470nm blue offering 4cd+ with 15 degrees viewing angle; 505nm "traffic light" green with performance in excess of 7cd; 590nm yellow and 626nm red devices to complete the spectral range; and the OptiLED range of white round, elliptical, rectangular and square shaped devices with typical performance of better than 6cd in a 10-degree, 5mm package.
All quoted optical data are fully verified using the company's in-house spectral analyser, which is also available for evaluation of currently used product, allowing a genuine alternative device to be offered.
