Lumex is introducing its new family of surface mount technology (SMT) light-emitting diodes. Its SML-LX1110xx-TR series includes the brightest SMT LEDs available from any manufacturer, with intensities as high as 25,000mcd. Offered in the PLCC-4 package, these devices are ideal for backlighting, interior and exterior automotive lighting, architectural and decorative lighting, or anywhere a high-intensity light source is required with the benefits of surface mount packaging.

Lumex's new SML-LX1110xx-TR high-power LEDs are available in four colors including red, yellow, green, and blue. Typical brightness levels range from 2,500mcd (blue) to 25,000mcd (red) at If =350mA. All colors are available with viewing angles (2x Theta) of either 90 degrees or 120 degrees. The square PLCC-4 packages measure just 10mm (0.394in.) on each side. They include internal reflective cavities to maximize light output and have a polarity mark for easy identification and proper placement. These devices are supplied on standard 24mm tape for automated assembly. In addition, Lumex's high-power SMT LEDs are RoHS compliant to help designers meet the new lead-free standard.

Sample quantities of Lumex's high-power SMT LEDs are available from stock, with production quantities in six to eight weeks. Pricing varies widely, depending on the color, viewing angle, and quantity ordered. It starts at approximately $3 each in quantities of 1,000.
