Toshiba enters the surface mount LED market; offering the brightest LEDs in the industry.IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 1, 1996--Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. (TAEC TAEC Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. TAEC Thailand Atomic Energy Commission ) today announced its line-up of visible Surface Mount Device (SMD (1) (Storage Module Device) A high-performance hard disk interface used with minis and mainframes that transfers data in the 1-4 MBytes/sec range (SMD-E provides highest rate). See hard disk. ) Light Emitting Diodes See LED. (LEDs). The new line-up consists of 18 SMD diodes available in both flat lens and dome lens types. The 1002 series consists of 11 flat lens diodes and the 1005 series consists of seven domed lens diodes. The new line-up of diodes is the brightest SMD LEDs offered in the industry today, with up to 450 millicandelas (mcd) typical at 555 to 660 nanometers (nm). The packaging of the SMDs is one of the smallest offered at 2.0 (L) x 1.25 (W) x 1.1 (H) millimeters. A lower power consumption of 1.75 to 2.15 forward voltage (Vf). "By expanding our line-up of LEDs to include surface mount packaging we give designers an option of packaging to best fit their needs. The high brightness illuminated in these new diodes and its small size package allow designers to save space while achieving the brightness needed for their designs," stated Joey Maniquis, product marketing engineer for Toshiba's optoelectronic products. Due to the high brightness (TOSbright*) of the diodes, they are mainly used in 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 applications such as cellular and cordless telephones, industrial equipment, portable instrumentation including medical, facsimile machines, image scanners, car instrumentation and signboards. Another popular application for SMD LEDs is aisle lighting such as that installed in airplanes and movie theaters. Product Specifications Flat Lens
