Cree has announced it is demonstrating the newest addition to its lighting-class XLamp LED family—the XLamp XP-G LED—at LIGHTFAIR International in New York, May 5-7, 2009. The cool white XLamp XP-G provides 139 lumens and 132 lumens per Watt at 350 mA. Driven at 1 A, the XP-G produces 345 lumens, which is 37 percent brighter and 53 percent more efficient than the brightest XR-E LED. The XP-G LED has the highest lumen density of any available...

Vishay has broadened its optoelectronics portfolio with the introduction of the new AEC-Q101-qualified VEMD20x0X01 PIN photodiodes and VEMT20x0X01 phototransistors. The photo detectors feature an operating temperature range of - 40 deg. C to +100 deg. C and are available in 1.8-mm gullwing and reverse gullwing surface-mount packages.

Hamamatsu Photonics has introduced the C10988MA, an ultra-compact spectrometer built using MOEMS technology. The C10988MA is a thumb-sized device, measuring only 27.6 x 13 x 16.8 mm, developed for use in portable and hand-held devices, where a standard mini-spectrometer would be too large and consume too much power. Not only small, but the C10988MA is also light, weighing only 9 grams.
