Avago Announces Small High-Power LED Emitters for Use in solid-state Lighting Applications

Additionally, this compact LED emitter provides a wide viewing angle, has moisture sensitivity level-one (MSL 1) capability, and is very reliable. This competitively priced 1W LED emitter is ideal for use in lighting applications where space is constrained. Typical applications include portable lighting appliances, street lighting, architectural facade lighting, retail display lighting, backlighting and specialty lighting applications.

Despite its compact size, the ASMT-Jx1x provides a maximum viewing angle of 165-degree to meet the needs of designers who require good color and light output uniformity in their lighting applications. Avago’s ASMT-Jx1x is a high performance LED designed to handle high thermal and high drive currents. By delivering a high flux output of up to 87 lumens (lm) at 350mA, this LED features a maximum allowable junction temperature of 150 degrees-C and high Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) resistance of 16 kV which makes this LED insensitive to ESD. As a result, special ESD protection equipment is not required to handle the part during installation. Moreover, this 1W LED is compatible with standard SMT reflow soldering processes and helps lower design cost while providing lighting designers with more freedom and flexibility in designing their applications.
