New concave cylindrical 5mm (T1-3/4) Discrete LEDs, which emit light that is as
bright at its edges as it is in the centre, have been introduced by LEDtronics.
Concave lenses improve the quality of the light beam by spreading out the collimated
beam of light that LEDs typically emit. The new high-intensity LEDs produce
illumination that is bright even in direct sunlight, making them ideal sources
of illumination for applications such as backlighting, medical equipment and
illuminating channel letters. Sturdy leads are provided for wire wrap applications.
Six sunlight-visible colours are offered - Green (525nm and 568nm), Cool White
(8000K), Blue (461nm), Yellow (596nm and 585nm), Red (655nm, 660nm and 630nm)
and Orange (606nm).
Solid-state design renders LEDs impervious to electrical and mechanical shock,
vibration, frequent switching and environmental extremes. With an average life
span of 100,000-plus hours (11 years), LEDs operate reliably year after year
and are appropriate for many applications. They can be used as individual pixels
in a large dot-matrix screen, full-colour screens, moving signs and displays.
More diverse applications for LEDs include light sources for scanners used
in color copiers, spectral analysis, high-speed document reading and colour
synthesis. Other applications include medical imaging and biomedical instrumentation,
telecommunications equipment, machine vision systems, and colour recognition
and calibration systems.
Founded in 1983, LEDtronics® leads where others only follow when it comes
to designing, manufacturing and packaging state-of-the-art LEDs to meet the
world’s constantly changing lighting needs. Our inventive product line
encompasses an array of direct incandescent lamp replacement Based LEDs, low-cost
snap-in and relampable Panel Mount LEDs, high intensity sunlight-visible Discrete
LEDs, PCB LEDs circuit board status indicators, surface mount diodes SMT LEDs,
full-spectrum rainbow RGB LEDs, and Infra-Red (IR) LEDs.
Prices for 5mm (T1¾) Concave Cylindrical Discrete LEDs range from $0.17
- $0.74 each in quantities of 1,000 depending on the LED technology and color.
