Avago Technologies Introduces New Family of High-Brightness Surface Mount Tricolor LEDs for Indoor and Outdoor Full Color Signs and Video Displays.Compact Industry Standard PLCC-6 Package Provides High Contrast, a Wide Viewing Angle, Better Color Control and Reliability 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 a new family of compact high-brightness tricolor tricolor describes a coat color of dogs and cats which has orange and black patches (similar to the tortoiseshell) but has in addition patches of white hair; see tortoiseshell. 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 ) LEDs for indoor and outdoor full color signs and video displays. Avago's ASMT-YTB0 LEDs, which are available in a PLCC-6 package, provides full color display and video application designers with better color control and contrast, and a 115-degree viewing angle. With dimensions of 4.4 mm by 4.4 mm by 3.5 mm, this new family of LEDs from Avago also incorporates silicone material to extend light output performance over time. Avago's compact ASMT-YTB0 package is specially designed to meet indoor and outdoor LED screen requirements for better screen resolution (greater than 12mm pixel size), and high-brightness performance. It also has six-leads to enable individual color control of each color chip to display a multitude of colors including white and enhanced thermal management. The ASMT-YTB0 incorporates a separate heat path for each LED dice to enable it to be driven at higher currents. As a result, these SMT LEDs can operate in a wide range of environmental conditions to provide customers with high reliability. These new tricolor LEDs are ideal for use in indoor and outdoor video screens, advertising displays and stadium scoreboards. The family of ASMT-YTB0 LEDs are compatible with reflow soldering Reflow soldering is the most common means to attach a surface mounted component to a circuit board, and typically consists of applying solder paste, positioning the devices, and reflowing the solder in a conveyorized oven. processes and have a 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). of 2a (MSL See multiple single-level. 2a) to make them ideal for use in SMT production environments. Features * Individual Anode/Cathode terminal to enable the display of all colors with better color control and on each individual chip * Compact tricolor PLCC-6 package for high contrast ratio and screen resolution * 115-degree viewing angle * Silicone encapsulation (1) In object technology, the creation of self-contained modules that contain both the data and the processing. See object-oriented programming. (2) The transmission of one network protocol within another. material enables high reliability and long operating life (over 50,000 hours) * Compatible with reflow soldering processes * Low thermal resistance * Pb-Free and RoHS compliant * Moisture sensitivity: 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 MSL 2a U.S. Pricing and Availability Avago's ASMT-YTB0 LEDs are priced at $0.60 each in minimum quantities of 1,000 pieces. Samples and production quantities are available now through Avago's direct sales channel and worldwide distribution partners. Avago High-Brightness LED and Display Backlighting back·light n.
