LEDs Offer Wide Viewing Angles

Employing an oval lens, the APED3820 surface-mount LEDs are said to offer 60° horizontal and 35° vertical viewing angles. The wide horizontal viewing light pattern emitted by the LEDs suits them for use as LCD backlights. The crystal clear, 3.8 x 2.0 x 3.2-mm package enhances the brightness of LEDs by reducing their loss of light to the surrounding space. APED3820 series comes in various colors, as well as blue and white. KINGBRIGHT CORP., City of Industry, CA. (909) 468-0500 ext 130.
