BivarOpto Introduces Thermally Enhanced RGB PLCC-4 LED
The Optoelectronics Division of Bivar Inc. introduces a new surface-mount RGB-based device for optimized control of color and brightness, including a brilliant white, packaged in a low-profile, industry standard PLCC- 4 (plastic leaded chip carrier) device with a 120º viewing angle. Applications include high-contrast video displays (such as LCD monitors, backlighting in automotive dash clusters and exterior automotive lighting), instrument panel backlighting, navigation and switching systems, and medical instrumentation.
Features an internal tri-chip circuit, employing three individually addressable LED die. Lens appearance when off is water clear. Comprised of a single AllnGaP and two InGaN/SIC chip dies, featuring peak wavelengths of 625, 568 and 430 nm respectively. The result is a programmable white or brilliant full color display that can meet specific display needs. Absolute maximum rating of forward current drive is 200mA (Peak If). Other models in the product family include single and bi-color chip available in red, green, blue and yellow, including ultra and HE colors such as 395 UV– 525nm pure green.
The PLCC-4 configuration, including a four-pad metal heat dissipating base, measures 0.075” high, with a footprint of 0.110” x 0.138”.
