Multichip LEDs provide high luminance

The OVTL09LGA Lednium series of high-luminance 10W LED sources was developed by Optek for applications in the automotive interior and exterior lighting, architectural lighting and signage markets.

Available now from Pacer Components is the OVTL09LGA Lednium series of high-luminance 10W LED sources The series was developed by Optek for numerous applications in the automotive interior and exterior lighting, architectural lighting and signage markets

The Lednium series is available in white, blue, green, amber, red and RGB versions and have exceptional uniformity and a long operating life.

Using the highest quality LED chips, the reliability of the series is measured by luminance maintenance over time and typically peaks at 70% after 50,000 hours of operation.

The LEDs offer exceptional flexibility with the option of energising three, six or nine LED chips for differing levels of brightness.

There is also a range of optics available to suit specific applications.

Housed in a revolutionary three-dimensional surface mount package, the multichip LEDs have a luminance up to 340 lumen.

Some of the many other design benefits of the packages include robust energy efficient design and low thermal resistance (junction to board (TJB) of 5C/W).

The Lednium devices have a maximum continuous rated DC forward current of 1.05A, and a peak pulsed forward current of 3A energised for 1ms max on a duty cycle of 1:16.

Maximum reverse voltage is rated as 15V.

Incorporating a water clear lens and with a viewing angle of 120 degrees across the range, the luminous flux ratings are: white (250lm), blue (60lm), red (247lm), green (290lm) and amber (330lm), with a typical on-axis intensity of white (70cd), blue (19cd), red (75cd), green (100cd) and amber (67cd).

Incorporating a water clear lens and with a viewing angle of 120 degrees across the range, the luminous flux ratings are: white (250lm), blue (60lm), red (247lm), green (290lm) and amber (330lm), with a typical on-axis intensity of white (70cd), blue (19cd), red (75cd), green (100cd) and amber (67cd).

Typical dominant wavelengths are blue (467nm), red (624nm), green (524nm) and 595nm for the amber LED, with a spectral FWHM (full width, half maximum) of 24, 18, 40 and 16nm for the blue, red, green and amber, respectively.

With an operating temperature of -50 to +80C, these devices are ideally suited to indoor and outdoor applications including cold-climate industrial applications.

The surface-mount devices are packaged in a lead-free 3D square package of 33mm side length, with 11mm long pins and are supplied in trays of 24 for loading into automatic placement equipment.

Part numbering uses the series designation OVTL09LGAx where x is appended to indicate colour required, that is W for white, B for blue, R for red, G for green and A for amber. Request a free brochure from Pacer International ...
