IES explores luminuous flux maintenance projection method developments using LM-80 data

The IES is considering feedback from the LED industry on projection methods for testing and defining additional long-term behavior changes in LEDs that are not addressed in the current version of TM-21. Jianzhong Jiao describes possible models and updates under...

CSP LEDs crawl toward delivering on SSL promise (MAGAZINE)

Chip-scale packaging (CSP) technology has the potential to reduce LED component cost and provide SSL system-design advantages, explains Maury Wright, but the technology, borrowed from the mainstream semiconductor industry, has been slow to emerge commercially. The...

To CSP, or not to CSP? (MAGAZINE)

Perhaps the primary theme at Strategies in Light (SIL) relating to the LED technology roadmap was whether the chip-scale package (CSP) will become predominant in terms of discrete LED packaging options. The original version of this article can be found...

German-funded InteGreat LED and luminaire research program moves forward

The team working on the InteGreat research and development project, coordinated by Osram Opto Semiconductors, hopes to develop an integrated way to manufacture LEDs that will enable simple and lower-cost system realization for solid-state lighting products. The...
