Chip-on-board LED with low thermal resistance offers design versatility
The product is based on Seoul Semiconductor’s Z-Power LEDs which are mainly used as a light source of high-brightness and high-power applications. According to the vendor, the ZC decreases thermal resistance, resulting in an exponential improvement in LED lighting product life expectancy. Moreover, it allows manufacturers to install and design price competitive products.
The ZC Series (also known under its development project name Sirius) is designed as a COB type and removes the need for the LED to be surface-mounted on to a metal plate, allowing manufacturers to bypass the chip connection process before use.
The use of highly-reflective aluminum substrates in ZC also improves the brightness and significantly prolongs LED bulb life spans. It is possible to use a single ZC from the ZC series to develop a LED light bulb which then allows light to be distributed more evenly than lights that connect several LED packages to a single module.
ZC will be offered in 6W, 10W and 16W versions, each of which will be appropriate replacements for 40W, 60W incandescent light bulbs or 100W downlights, respectively. The devices emit a warm-white light at a color temperature of 2700K.
The recently launched ZC Series will begin mass production in December and will subsequently be available to customers.
