Arrow is expanded its family of TFT (thin film transistor) and COG (chip on glass) displays with a new range of character and graphic modules targeted at portable applications and offering resolutions up to 240 x 320 pixels.

Avago Technologies today introduced the industry's thinnest surface mount (SMT) light emitting diodes (LEDs) in the smallest industry-standard (0603) footprint available. With an ultra small form factor about the size of a pencil tip, these low-power LEDs use high-brightness chips to provide excellent illumination with minimum current consumption. These new ChipLED lamps from Avago are available in blue and phosphor white -- the colors most widel...

CML Innovative Technologies (CML-IT) offers discrete LEDs in both through hole and SMT format devices in all standard industry sizes including 3mm, 5mm, 0603, 0805, 1206, PLCC as well as many others.

New Bright Pipes, optical light pipes from CML Innovative Technologies (CML-IT) produce bright, even indication based on optical ray tracing. Ideal for transferring light from a PCB to a front panel, the devices conveniently and economically conduct light from SMT LEDs through angles and distances to a viewable front lens surface.

Forge Europa, a leading manufacturer of LED products, offers a custom design and manufacturing facility for edge or direct illuminated LED backlights. Using LEDs has a number of advantages. They offer distinct and vivid colours, long life (50 000hours) and the opportunity for precise dimming or intensity control. Power consumption is very low and can be further reduced by using pwm drive circuits.

Digital Displays introduces another innovative active matrix TFT-LCD for hand-held consumer and industrial applications. From supply partner One Stop Displays the OSD0345CA6T1 is a 3.45 diagonal transmissive QVGA TFT with White LED backlight and integrated resistive touchscreen.

New Power LED light engines from CML-Innovative Technologies (CML-IT) make moving to LED technology easy. SSL light engines can include all the elements required to implement an LED-based lighting product – LED, lens, driver circuitry, heatsinking and packaging – meaning that all designers need do to benefit from this low power, long life technology is to connect up to the appropriate power source.

Anders Electronics has announced a new range of TFT-LCDs for instrumentation, process control, automation, portable measurement, and other price-sensitive industrial applications. The 3.5, 5, and 5.7-inch modules all operate from –20 °C to +70 °C – making them suitable for a broad range of industrial applications, but without the price premium typically associated with extended temperature operation.

Avago Technologies has introduced the industry's first Half-Watt (0.5W) high-brightness red-orange and amber light-emitting diodes (LED) in an automotive-industry-standard PLCC-4 surface-mount (SMT) package. This new series of 0.5W Power LEDs feature the industry's smallest package size and are optimized for long operating life under severe environmental conditions making them ideal for automotive exterior lighting applications. Avago is a leadin...
