The Moonstone™ Tri-Color Power LED Light Source is a high performance energy efficient device which can handle high thermal and high driving current. The exposed pad design enables excellent heat transfer from the package to the motherboard.

The low profile package design is suitable for a wide variety of applications especially where height is a constraint. The package is compatible with reflow soldering process. This will give more freedom and flexibility to the light source designer. The above mentioned values are cummulative for all chips.

The advantages:

- Long lifetime
- Wide viewing angle
- silicone encapsulation
- Non-ESD sensitive (threshold >16KV)
- Junction temperature: 125°C (max.)
- Big cooling pads for best thermal conduction

Possible point of use:

_ Architectural lighting
- Garden lighting
- In-Mood lighting
- Commercial lighting

Successful usage of high power LEDs:

Heat management

Applications with high power LEDs need enduring, adequate and plane heat conduction from the first moment of use. It is very important and neccessary to get the heat off the devices to ensure the maximum light output, lifetime and efficiancy.

Drive management

LEDs should be run with a constant current in addition to the manufacturers recommendations. To ensure this we recommend to take constant current power supplies because resistors are always a risk factor in high power LED applications.

EMC protection

LEDs are sensitive against heat and electric charge. Please avoid any kind of short circuits or electric discharge to the illuminant. The chip can be damaged or even destroyed.

Storage / JEDEC level

The storage temperature should be from -30°C up to + 80°C in dry ambience. After opening a sealed bag the content should be mounted rapidly. Once absorbed humidity can be removed by tempering the LEDs in some cases. More information can be found in the manufacturers datasheets or on the manufacturer homepages.

Soldering conditions

Each LED has its own soldering conditions that the user should pay attention to. After the launched lead free processing specifications many standarts have changed. Information about recommended soldering can be found in the manufacturers datasheets or on the manufacturer homepages.
