Available in tricolor PLCC-6 package, ASMT-YTB0 LEDs are suited for indoor and outdoor full color signs and video displays. They feature individual anode/cathode terminal to enable display of all colors on each individual chip, 115° viewing angle, moisture sensitivity of JEDEC MSL 2a, and silicone encapsulation material that enables operating life of over 50,000 hr. Pb-Free and RoHS compliant devices are compatible with reflow soldering processes.
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, Calif., April 29, 2008
Avago Technologies, a leading supplier of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer applications, today introduced a new family of compact high-brightness tricolor surface mount (SMT) 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 processes and have a moisture sensitivity level of 2a (MSL 2a) to make them ideal for use in SMT production environments.
