Osram launches Osconiq P 3030 LED providing long lifetime and high brightness and efficiency for flashlights and work lamps
Osram Opto Semiconductors GmbH of Regensburg, Germany is expanding its portfolio of high-power LEDs for general lighting with the highly reliable, long-lasting (>70,000h) and robust Osconiq P 3030.
Osram says that, using their years of experience in the automotive sector, developers have transferred their knowledge of combining lead-frame technology with high-performance chips to high-volume products for the general lighting industry. Compared with the ceramic packages commonly used in this field, the firm’s new package provides a more robust component with a longer lifetime. The specially developed surface-mount device (SMD) package with silicone lens provides high brightness and efficiency as well as a better lumens-per-dollar ratio than ceramic packages used in similar applications.
Customers can choose between two color rendering index versions (CRI 70 and CRI 80) from the complete range of correlated color temperatures (CCTs) for different applications such as professional indoor or outdoor lighting. While the CRI 70 version is available in color temperatures of 2700-6500K, the CRI 80 version spans 2200–5000K. The CRI 80 version is available in two different configurations. Both products have compact dimensions of 3.0mm x 3.0mm and a height of only 1.63mm, enabling space-saving luminaire designs.
“Thanks to a universal contact pad design, previously used ceramic components can be replaced easily,” says Boo Hian Voon, product manager for General Lighting. The 1mm2 chip in the CRI 70 version reaches 160lm at 5000K and has luminous efficiency of 161lm/W. The CRI 80 version delivers 135lm at 3000K and has efficiency of 136lm/W. Both can be operated with high currents up to 1.3A and simplify system design with a low thermal resistance.
The two white LEDs will be joined later this year by color versions in deep blue (450nm), blue (470nm), true green (528nm), red (623nm), hyper red (660nm) and far red (730nm) for professional horticulture and outdoor lighting.
