Avago Technologies Introduces High-Brightness Green Auto Focus Auxiliary Flash LED for Use in Digital Still Cameras.New Surface Mount LED Package is Industry's Brightest Auxiliary Flash to Assist Auto Focusing Function in Digital Still Cameras 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. today introduced a high-brightness green auto focus auxiliary flash light emitting diode See LED. (LED) to assist the auto focusing function in digital still cameras used in low ambient light conditions. With a footprint about the size of a pencil eraser, Avago's ASMT-FG10 auto focus auxiliary flash LED provides designers of digital still cameras with a low-cost alternative to conventional infrared (IR) auxiliary auto focus solutions. This compact green LED lamp A LED lamp is a type of solid state lighting (SSL) that utilizes light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as a source of illumination rather than electrical filaments or gas. Models is easy to install, offers the highest brightness and most compact package in the industry, and targets digital camera designers who need a cost-effective solution that can perform auto focusing functions in dark environments. Digital still cameras have twice the sensitivity when responding to the color green than other colors, due to the availability of more photo diodes allocated for green in each pixel. Avago's ASMT-FG10 surface mount (SMT (1) (Surface Mount Technology) See surface mount. (2) (Station ManagemenT) An FDDI network management protocol that provides direct management. Only one node requires the software. SMT - Station Management ) LED allows designers of digital cameras to package far greater functionality per square-inch of printed circuit board space while achieving superior performance in terms of brightness and power consumption. In addition, this SMT LED package simplifies the assembly process. As a result, design engineers can expect cost savings and better performance of the overall camera system. Avago's ASMT-FG10 green (530nm) Indium Gallium Nitride Indium gallium nitride (InGaN, InxGa1-xN) is a semiconductor material made of a mix of gallium nitride (GaN) and indium nitride (InN). It is a ternary group III/group V direct bandgap semiconductor. (InGaN) dome LED lamp uses an un-tinted, non-diffused lens to provide high luminous intensity Luminous intensity The solid angular luminous flux density in a given direction from a light source. It may be considered as the luminous flux on a small surface normal to the given direction, divided by the solid angle (in steradians) which the surface within a narrow radiation pattern. The ASMT-FG10 incorporates an encapsulated LED chip on an axial lead frame to form a molded epoxy lamp package with six bended bend·ed v. Archaic A past participle of bend1. Idiom: on bended knee On one's knee or knees, as in supplication or submission. Adj. 1. leads for surface mounting. The InGaN material used in this LED lamp has a very high luminous efficiency Luminous efficiency Visual efficacy of visible radiation, a function of the spectral distribution of the source radiation in accordance with the “spectral luminous efficiency curve,’’ usually for the light-adapted eye or photopic vision, and is capable of producing high light output over a wide range of drive currents. The narrow angle SMT lamp package is ideal for digital cameras that require long distance illumination and a narrow beam pattern. Features * High-brightness output * Smooth, consistent narrow radiation pattern * Six-degree viewing angle * Clear, non-diffused epoxy * Compatible with 2x solder reflow (1) The process of heating and melting the solder that has been screen printed onto a printed circuit board in order to bond chips and other components to the board. Surface mount chips (SMT) use the reflow method. Contrast with wave soldering.
