5mm Bread-Type Piranha LED
5MM Bread-shaped Super Flux - Hongcheng Optoelectronics LED Manufacturer
Product Overview:
The 5MM bread-shaped Super Flux LED is a high-brightness light-emitting diode with a 4-pin lead frame and a wide bread-shaped lens. It provides a large emitting area, uniform output, wide coverage, good heat dissipation and secure mounting. Compared with round-top Super Flux LEDs, the bread-shaped structure better suits wide-angle lighting and uniform backlighting.
Key Advantages:
- Four-lead Piranha package for secure mounting and vibration resistance
- Bread-shaped wide-head encapsulant with a large emitting area
- Uniform light distribution and broad coverage
- Multiple leads assist heat conduction for good heat dissipation
- Available in red, yellow, green, blue, white and orange
- Clear, diffused and tinted encapsulants available
- Custom brightness, wavelengths, angles and pin configurations available
Applications:
- Automotive tail lights, brake lights and turn signals
- Traffic lights and road warning equipment
- Advertising letters, signs and light box backlighting
- Industrial equipment and large control panels
- Landscape illumination and outdoor decorative lighting
- Uniform backlighting, light bars and electronic display modules
Product Features:
Chips: Grade A chips from leading brands in Taiwan and mainland China provide high brightness, low lumen depreciation and good color consistency.
Gold wire: 99.99% pure gold wire bonding provides good conductivity and stable, reliable bonds.
Encapsulant: high-quality epoxy resin in a bread-shaped package provides good light transmission, uniform output, heat resistance and resistance to yellowing.
Lead frame: a 4-pin metal frame with high thermal conductivity provides secure installation, good electrical conductivity and heat dissipation.
Customization: Custom lens shape, emission color, wavelength, brightness, pin positions and polarity configurations are available.
Packaging: bulk, bagged and customer-specified packaging are available, with crush, ESD and moisture protection.
