High-power surface-mount infra-red and ultra-violet LEDs

The very compact 3.5mm × 3.5mm High Power SMD LED device is available in both UV and IR types, with a number of integral lens options providing different output beam angles and a ceramic substrate giving enhanced thermal properties. Available UV wavelengths include 365nm, 385nm and 395nm and IR wavelengths include 850nm and 940nm.

The second package style in the series is the larger Multichip UV LED, measuring 6.8mm × 6.8mm. This 7W device offers very high power output and features a glass lens for superior reliability and extended product life. As the device includes multiple LED chips, these can be configured to allow the device to emit more than one UV wavelength should the application require it.

William Heath, OMC's Commercial Director, says: "Our new high power SMD IR and UV LED series has been developed to provide customers with more versatile solutions for their industrial, detection and data communications applications. The range of package sizes, lensing options and device powers is designed to offer maximum flexibility to engineers looking to integrate infrared or ultraviolet LEDs into their designs."
