Bourns, Inc., a leading manufacturer and supplier of electronic components, today announced that the company has introduced the availability of WEBENCH Designer customized specifically for Bourns and its inductor customers. In cooperation with National Semiconductor Corp., the Bourns version of WEBENCH Designer is available now on the Bourns website, http://www.bourns.com. It is a powerful design and prototyping tool designed to help create power supplies, DC-DC converters and LED driver solutions that meet design requirements for simulation, optimization and quick prototypes. WEBENCH tools enable designers to easily fine-tune switching power supply and LED driver designs and solve problems before a prototype is built, alleviating the time and extra costs associated with traditional design methods. The new toolset can also be used for device selection allowing customers to locate the optimal switching regulator and Inductor products for their power supply and LED applications.
Applied Materials, Inc., Merck KGaA and the Braunschweig University of Technology (TU-BS) today announced that they have been awarded a grant by Germany’s Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) to develop processes to lower the cost of manufacturing organic light-emitting diode (OLED) lighting for general illumination applications. Applied will spearhead the three-year project, named Light InLine (LILi), joining forces with Merck, a leading manufacturer of high performance OLED materials and TU-BS, an internationally recognized center for OLED research. Work on the LILi project will be centered at Applied Materials’ advanced development facility in Alzenau, Germany.
DuPont announced that it has been awarded a $2.25 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for a two-year project to develop a solid-state lighting source using low-cost organic light emitting diode (OLED) solution-processing manufacturing techniques.
C. Crane, a pioneer in direct-replacement LED light bulbs, is now shipping the new GeoBulb® MR16 LED Light Bulb
Diguang International Development Co., Ltd. (OTC Bulletin Board: DGNG) ("Diguang" or "the Company") today announced that the Company will participate in the upcoming China Hi-Tech Fair ("the Fair") from November 16-21, 2009 at the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center. The Company will also hold a product press conference to discuss how LED TV technology will transform LED and LED lighting into a $100 billion market at 14:00 p.m. (China time) on November 16, 2009.
Nanometrics Incorporated (Nasdaq: NANO), a leading supplier of advanced process control metrology systems used primarily in the manufacturing and packaging of semiconductors, solar photovoltaics and high-brightness LEDs, today announced multiple orders from new and existing HB-LED customers for RPMBlue™ and IVS185™ metrology systems, which will be used for photoluminescence (PL) mapping and critical dimension and overlay control, respectively. These systems are scheduled to be delivered and qualified in the fourth quarter of this year.
AIXTRON AG is pleased to announce that a further AIX 200/4 RF-S MOCVD system has been installed and successfully started operation at Tokuyama R&D center in Tsukuba, Japan.
How many light bulbs does it take to change the world? Just one, if you make it LED. The World Usability Day (WUD) project will make 1,000 LED spot/bulbs available for free via their website http://www.worldusabilityday.org. "Assume the following math: 1,000 bulbs can replace all of the light bulbs in 20 medium-sized houses," said Brian Sullivan, the usability principal at the Sabre Human Factors Center in San Francisco, CA, and co-chair of World Usability Day. "The LED bulbs are easily three times more efficient than standard bulbs. So that is the equivalent of lighting 100 houses," said Brian Sullivan, co-chair of World Usability Day. By using 1 LED bulb rather than 3 filament bulbs you will save 268.24 kWh.
Gonzaga University in Spokane, Wash., and IMG College recently announced they chose Daktronics Inc. (Nasdaq-DAKT) of Brookings, S.D., to design, manufacture and deliver new light emitting diode (LED) scorer’s tables in the McCarthey Athletic Center, home of Bulldog basketball.
Brillia(TM), a leading provider of brilliant LED light engines, announces a new line of LED modules for luminaires utilizing Thermadjust(TM) technology. Thermadjust is a revolutionary new concept for LED modules that further enhances the usability of LED technology for general illumination. Developed specifically to decrease the likelihood of LED failure in high temperature environments, Thermadjust causes the LED modules to automatically adjust their output if ambient thermal conditions exist that could potentially cause the LED devices to fail prematurely. Using the LED device manufacturer's LM80 test data (for lumen maintenance) and ENERGY STAR requirements, the modules are intelligently engineered to ensure the junction temperature of the LEDs will always be maintained at or below levels required for proper performance and long life of the LEDs.
