This new component has been designed for applications requiring flawless additive color mixing in confined spaces, such as high-resolution backlighting and compact displays, ensuring full color space coverage thanks to its common-anode configuration and individual per-chip control.
The VLMRGB1500 integrates advanced chip technologies to maximize efficiency and color stability. It utilizes AlInGaP semiconductors for red spectrum emission and InGaN technology for the green and blue channels. This architecture enables remarkable light intensities to be achieved with a current of just 5 mA: the red channel delivers between 26 and 54 mcd (615–625 nm), the green channel stands out with 122 to 252 mcd (520–530 nm), and the blue channel completes the mix with 22 to 46 mcd (466–473 nm).
With a 120° (±60°) beam angle, the device ensures homogeneous light distribution, essential for backlighting and control panel applications. Furthermore, its robustness is guaranteed by electrostatic discharge (ESD) resistance of up to 2 kV for red and 1 kV for the green/blue channels, complying with the JESD22-A114-B standard.
Reliability and Integration Versatility
: Designed for demanding professional environments, the VLMRGB1500 operates reliably within a thermal range of -40°C to +85°C. Its 0404 form factor (1.0 × 1.0 × 0.65 mm) design not only saves critical PCB space but also facilitates streamlined manufacturing processes by being fully compatible with IR reflow soldering. Furthermore, it is JEDEC MSL 3 rated and RoHS and halogen-free compliant.
Strategic Applications:
Thanks to its balance between minimal dimensions and high visual impact, this LED is positioned as a key component in high-value-added sectors. It is an ideal solution for signaling in telecommunications equipment, status indicators in industrial machinery, control panels in household appliances, and decorative lighting systems or keyboards where color accuracy is critical to the user experience.
