Avago Technologies Announces High-Power Moonstone Light Strip, Ring and Round Modules for Architectural, Backlighting and General Lighting Applications.


New Low-Profile High Power LED Modules Feature a Robust Package Design, High Flux Output and Plug-and-Play Installation

FRANKFURT, Germany -- Avago Technologies Avago Technologies is an American company which was earlier the semiconductor products division of HP and later Agilent Technologies, before being spun off into a distinct legal entity. It holds more than 2,000 patents. , a leading supplier of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer applications, today announced a new series of thin plug-and-play high power cool white and warm white LED modules for use in architectural, backlighting back·light

Avago's ADJD-WMxx/YMxx Moonstone moonstone, an orthoclase feldspar, found in Sri Lanka, Myanmar, and Madagascar (and formerly in the St. Gotthard district of Switzerland). In spite of its pronounced cleavage, it is widely used as a gem. [TM] LED series features a light strip, ring and round modules to meet the diverse needs of lighting application designers. Available in one of the industry's thinnest packages these modules provide customers with many design options and ease of assembly.

The input power for Avago's ADJD-WMxx/YMxx high power modules range from 1W to 15W and are capable of delivering up to 1140 lumens to provide exceptional lumens per Watt efficiency. This new series of high power LED modules from Avago targets designers of lighting fixtures such as architectural facade lighting, task and reading lights, accent lighting and billboard backlighting. Other applications include safety, exit and emergency sign lighting, illumination in vending machines vending machine, coin-operated, automatic device for selling goods. Many vending machines are capable of making change, and some of the more sophisticated ones accept paper money or credit cards. , refrigeration refrigeration, process for drawing heat from substances to lower their temperature, often for purposes of preservation. Refrigeration in its modern, portable form also depends on insulating materials that are thin yet effective.  lighting, retail lighting and illumination for machine vision equipment.

LEDs are increasingly being used for solid state lighting applications. As a result, lighting equipment manufacturers are constantly in need of LED packages that are brighter, more robust and reliable. Lighting designers, especially those who are converting from conventional light sources to LED-based solutions are always looking for Looking for

) to make thermal management easy. Moreover, the wide radiation patterns provided by these LED modules are ideal for illuminating a wide area.

The LEDs used in Avago's ADJD-WMxx/YMxx high power modules are encapsulated in a heat and UV resistant silicone compound for high reliability and long life. These competitively priced cool white and warm white high power LED modules provide designers of solid-state lighting Solid state lighting (SSL) refers to a type of lighting that utilizes light-emitting diodes (LEDs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLED), or polymer light-emitting diodes (PLED) as sources of illumination rather than electrical filaments or gas.  applications with a wide viewing angle and superior heat dissipation Noun 1. heat dissipation - dissipation of heat

. The number of LEDs that can be mounted on to the metal core PCB of the ADJD-WMxx/YMxx modules range from 1 to 12 LEDs to meet the different lighting output requirement of designers.

Avago's ADJD-WMxx/YMxx high power LED modules series come with two options of white - cool white (color temperature The measurement of color expressed in Kelvin (K). The reason this measurement is called a "temperature" is because it was derived from a theoretical object called a "black body radiator." When the radiator is heated, it changes from black to red to yellow to white to blue.  of 4,000K to 10,000K) and warm white (color temperatures of 2,600K to 4,000K).
