Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., a world leader in advanced component solutions, has introduced new chip-on-board (COB) LED package lineups, including small LES (light-emitting surface) COB packages, high CRI (color rendering index) COBs, and vivid COBs.
The new COB packages with their outstanding color quality and scaled-down light emitting space, will provide a major design alternative for LED lighting makers.
“By expanding our COB package lineup, we are providing greater value to the LED lighting market, while giving our customers much more design flexibility with which to address market needs,” said Jacob Tarn, Executive Vice President, LED Lighting Business Team, Samsung Electronics. “Samsung is continuing to introduce well-differentiated LED components to meet our customers’ needs, while strengthening our presence in the LED marketplace.”
Samsung has introduced three small LES COB packages (LC010C, LC020C and LC040C) to satisfy the market need for higher light intensity with very small form factors, and two new lineup options to its existing LC Series (LC006B, LC008B, LC013B, LC019B, LC026B, LC033B and LC040B). The new high intensity offerings include LC Series COB packages with a CRI over 95, as well as the Vivid COB LC Series, each of which will deliver premium light quality.
- Small LES COB LED Packages
Samsung LED’s new Small LES COB packages – LC010C, LC020C and LC040C – offer 10W, 20W and 40W of operating wattage options respectively and significantly reduced dimensions. In the 40W-class LC040C, the diameter of its LES has shrunk to 11mm from the 17mm typically specified in conventional 40W COB packages. For the LC010C and LC020C offerings, the LES scaled down to 6 mm from 11 mm and to 8 mm from 12.4 mm respectively. These LES packages are approximately 35 percent smaller than the LES in most existing COB packages. Moreover, they offer exceptionally high light intensity and even higher Center Beam Candle Power (CBCP) to provide the optimal narrow-beam solution for spotlights.
In addition, Samsung LED’s new Small LES COB packages are built with advanced flip chip technology that enables them to deliver high reliability with low droop, under high current and high thermal conditions. The new Small LES COB lineup features high-efficacy levels of 110lm/W at 3000K CCT, CRI80+, 85°C.
Samsung’s small LES COB packages will be sampled in July.
- COB LED Packages with Ultra-high Color Rendering
Samsung’s newly introduced COB LED packages offer high color-rendering with a CRI value of over 95. They will add significantly to Samsung’s lineup of LC Series COB packages that provides CRI levels over 70, 80 and 90.
The high color rendering packages faithfully reveal the true colors of various objects, and are used mainly for commercial LED lighting, which needs to present the color of goods in their most natural state. The high-color-quality COB packages support CCT (Correlated Color Temperature) specifications between 2700K and 3500K.
Samsung’s new Vivid COB packages feature much more vivid colors than virtually any commercial LED light, making objects appear as attractive as possible to the human eye. This feature is enabled based on the Vivid COB packages’ color spectrum tuning and phosphor controlling. As a result, the package helps depict the red, blue and green coloration of objects much more clearly.
Samsung’s ultra-high-CRI lineup is now available, while its new Vivid COB packages will be first sampled in July.
Samsung is showcasing these and other of its latest LED component lineups at Guangzhou International Lighting Exhibition 2015 (booth #B20, Hall 10.2) in the China Import and Export Fair Complex.
