High-Bright Tricolor LEDs Are Water Resistant

Self crowned as the industry's first water-resistant high-brightness, surface-mount tricolor LEDs, the ASMT-YTBO plastic leaded chip carrier (PLCC)-6 Blackbody and ASMT-QTCO industry standard PLCC- 4 LEDs eliminate the need for a protection cover. They provide a 115° viewing angle and employ six leads to enable enhanced thermal management and individual color control of each chip. Measuring 4.4 mm x 4.4 mm x 3.5 mm, the components are compatible with reflow soldering processes and have a moisture sensitivity level of 2a (MSL 2a). Prices for ASMT-YTBO and ASMT-QTCO LEDs are $0.60 and $0.58 each/1,000, respectively. AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES, San Jose, CA. (800) 235-0312.
