Understanding the known factors of LEDs to help evaluate LED system lifetime discussed in this white paper from Lumileds. Link here (PDF) One of the strongest propositions of power Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) is their long lumen maintenance their ability to continue producing light output for many years of use, in contrast to most conventional […]

App note: Practical heat sink design for illumination
White paper from Lumileds on efficient heat sink for LED illumination. Link here (PDF) LEDs are very small light sources that offer great freedom in design for lighting solutions. Within the freedom of an industrial product design, however, one has to make sure that the operating conditions of the LED stays within the ranges as […]
App note: How to measure thermal resistance of LED emitters and LED arrays
Another white paper from Lumileds about LED thermal resistance. Link here (PDF) Thermal performance is the most critical factor of a well-designed LED lighting system. A lighting system with proper thermal design has higher efficacy, meaning more light can be extracted using less energy, and better long term reliability.
App note: Flash for “Selfies”
Effective front facing camera flash discussed in this white paper from Lumileds. Link here (PDF) Smartphones are ubiquitous in everybody’s daily lives, a trend that shows no sign of slowing. A key component of the smartphone is the camera, which has gained market share over Digital Still Cameras due to its convenience. As the demand […]
