Avago Technologies Announces Industry's Thinnest Leadframe ChipLEDs for Automotive, Electronic Sign and Industrial Applications.Robust Top Mount Single 0.45mm Leadframe ChipLED Provides High-Brightness, Wide Viewing Angle, Superior Moisture Sensitivity, and Easy Installation SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850. , Calif. -- 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 introduced the industry's thinnest chip light emitting diodes (ChipLEDs) in the smallest industry-standard package. With an ultra small form factor of 1.65 mm length by 0.8 mm width by 0.45 mm height, Avago's new ASMT-Rx45 series of low-power, high-brightness leadframe ChipLEDs have been specifically designed to operate in the extreme conditions found in automotive, electronic sign and signals (ESS) and industrial applications. Avago's ultra-thin ASMT-Rx45 Aluminum Indium Gallium Phosphor A rare earth material used to coat the inside face of a CRT. When struck by an electron beam, the phosphor emits a visible light for a few milliseconds. In color displays, red, green and blue phosphor dots are grouped as a cluster. See screen burn. (AllnGaP) ChipLEDs were developed based on the industrial standard ChipLED 0603 platform which requires less board space and provides designers with a 20 to 30 percent cost savings over industry-standard PLCC-based LEDs. Moreover, these ChipLEDs provide a wide viewing angle of 130 degrees to improve visibility in bright sunlight. Available in Red, Red-Orange, Orange, and Yellow to Yellow Green colors, the ASMT-Rx45 series is ideal for use by lighting designers developing backlighting back·light n. A type of spotlight, used in photography, that illuminates a subject from behind. tr.v. back·light·ed or back·lit , back·light·ing, back·lights for dashboards and entertainment consoles in automobiles, backlighting of industrial switches and buttons, and small pixel indoor signs. In addition to the high-brightness and compact size, Avago's ASMT-Rx45 ChipLEDs provide two significant advantages in the production environment: They can be easily soldered using conventional surface mount techniques to minimize production costs, and the package is qualified to a Joint Electronic Device Engineering Council See JEDEC. (JEDEC The division of the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) that deals with semiconductor standards (officially, the JEDEC Solid State Technology Association of EIA). JEDEC was formed in 1958 when the Joint Electron Tube Engineering Council (JETEC) split into two Joint Electron Device ) moisture sensitive level (MSL See multiple single-level. ) rating of 2a. For manufacturers, this rating means that these ChipLEDs can be kept in the open air (30 degrees C, 60 percent relative humidity relative humidity n. The ratio of the amount of water vapor in the air at a specific temperature to the maximum amount that the air could hold at that temperature, expressed as a percentage. ) for up to four weeks after being removed from its sealed package without the need to remove absorbed moisture. The AllnGaP technology incorporated in Avago's ASMT-Rx45 package offers low thermal resistance, which allows more efficient heat transfer from the package to the motherboard thereby maintaining long-term device reliability. With its robust MSL 2a moisture sensitivity rating, designers will have greater flexibility during assembly of their products. Features * Industry standard industrial ChipLED 0603 platform * Wide 130 degree viewing angle * High-brightness output * Compatible replacement for Stanley 111x and 1114 series * Moisture sensitivity level Moisture Sensitivity Level relates to the packaging and handling precautions for some semiconductors. The MSL is an electronic standard for the time period in which a moisture sensitive device can be exposed to ambient room conditions (approximately 30°C/60%RH). : 2a * Qualified for use in automotive lighting
* Special leadframe construction provides efficient transfer of heat away from the ChipLED chip, to permit operation over the -40[deg] C to +100[deg] C temperature range * Package dimensions: 1.65 mm (L) by 0.8 mm (W) by 0.45 mm (H) * Pb-Free and RoHS compliant U.S. Pricing and Availability Avago's ASMT-Rx45 ChipLEDs are priced at $0.06 in 100,000-piece quantities. Samples and production quantities are available now through Avago's direct sales channel and worldwide distribution partners.
