LED Introduction: Heat to PCB

Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) have emphasized for years, especially used such as mobile phones, PDAs and other consumer electronics. Like most of these products have the relatively short life cycle, it wasn’t a priority for LED protection, product would fail because the item become obsolete long before the light failed. Today, technological advances in the design and processes, it is improving continually LED light output incandescent, fluorescent, and halogen light sources, it is needed to protect the lights from the accumulation of heat is Greater . Ten and ten times-watt LEDs are now commonplace, and industry experts higher-watt LED available in the coming years. Over one watt LEDs are usually surface mounted devices. This is because the axial leads to the steering nozzle in a package Containing Lead Does not take enough heat from the LED. Chip-on-Board (COB), ceramic-based packages are created and Other thermal management solution are emerging as standard thermally efficient for power LED packaging.

The thermal clad is recommended for use with power LEDs by many of the top LED manufacturersLink to Cree, Osram, Lite-on, Lumex, Lumileds, Nichia, and Seoul Semiconductor for more information.

The output of power of LED light and life expectancy are directly attributable to how the light is thermally managed. as the LED generates heat, the dielectric of the Bergquist Thermal Clad insulated metal substrate quickly transfers it to the aluminum base, significantly improving the LEDs performance.
