Everlight Electronics introduces a high power, high brightness LED package: the Shwo Series

Shwo [Shuo] is the English translation for the Chinese word meaning Twinkle and is often used as a description of stars or other bright, celestial objects as seen from Earth. This powerful, bright and economic LED series comes in a compact ceramic package. The Shwo series is a surface-mount high-power device featuring high brightness combined with a compact size (3.5mm x 3.5mm x 1.85mm) that is suitable for all kinds of lighting applications such as general illumination, flash, spot, signal, industrial and commercial lighting.

With the capability of 100~700mA driving currents, the Shwo family can be driven up to 3 watts. The minimum luminous flux (lm) of the 1W Shwo can be up to 100 lm at 6500K(CCT) or 80 lm at 3000K(CCT) when driven with 350mA current. The minimum luminous flux (lm) of the 3W Shwo can be up to 160 lm at 6500K(CCT) or 120 lm at 3000K(CCT) when driven with 700mA current.

The thermal pad of this device is electrically isolated providing convenience in thermal and electrical design. The Shwo series also has the advantage of low thermal resistance, ESD protection up to 8KV, binning parameters (brightness, forward voltage, wavelength and chromaticity), RoHS compliancy, and conformity to IESNA LM80 test method.

Mass production is scheduled for the end of the second quarter of 2010.
