Philips Lumileds Claims Smallest High-Power LED Package, The LUXEON Z

Tags: LED

LED maker Philips Lumileds of San Jose, CA, USA has introduced what it claims is the industry's smallest high-power LED package, the LUXEON Z.  

LUXEON Z enables a level of customization in luminaire design which, until now, has been unattainable, says the firm. Luminaire designers can use the ultra-compact, un-encapsulated LEDs to create a large variety of packaging, optical configurations and lighting designs. LUXEON Z is offered in a full spectrum of colours (including white) from 440-670nm.

According to the firm, unlike conventional products, LUXEON Z can be used to create 2x2, 3x2, 6x1 and other mono-color or multi-color arrays for new and existing luminaires. Furthermore, it is possible to mount nearly 250 LUXEON Z LEDs within a square-inch.

For products such as wall-washers, moving-head spotlights, tunable retrofits, and remote phosphor-based lamps, LUXEON Z LEDs offer design engineers a modular approach to developing entertainment, architectural and other specialty lighting. The un-encapsulated chips can accommodate custom optics, eliminating the need for complex secondary lenses that are inefficient.
