The new Power Topled with lens (SFH 4258S/4259S) from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors has an 80 percent higher optical output than the standard version of the infrared LED – despite the same surface area and the same current. This boost comes from a special thin-film chip which, thanks to Nanostack technology, has not just one but two p-n junctions that are grown one on top of the other. The resultant increased range will above all benefit applicatio...

Part 13 of LED & Solid-State Lighting Standardization by Dr. Jianzhong Jiao

With immediate effect, OSRAM now offers an up to 70 percent more efficient generation of the Prevaled LED Light Engine range. The products of the Prevaled Core Eco Z2 line attain a module efficiency of up to 108 lumen/watt (lm/W). With its LED Light Engines, OSRAM offers planning security, despite continually improving LED performance data. The standardised basic information, such as dimensions, luminous flux and light distribution, is the equiva...
