Waldenburg (Germany) – Würth Elektronik adds to its successful WL-SMTW LED series with two new variants. The SMT-mountable mono-color top-view LEDs are now available in a 1608 package. New LEDs are being added in the standard 3528 package, which feature an increased operating temperature of up to 100°C. The water-clear glass used enables precise color rendering at maximum intensity in five or six different colors.
With dimensions of just 1.6 × 0.8 × 0.55 mm, the new 1608 variant expands the WL-SMTW product line with particularly compact LEDs. These LEDs have proven to be highly reliable and energy-efficient. The miniature components are available in blue, green, yellow, amber, and two shades of red with wavelengths of 630 or 640 nm. Like all LEDs in the series, they emit no UV and IR.
The WE-SMTW 3258 HIGHTA is the third series of LEDs from Würth Elektronik following WL-SMCW 0603 and WL-SMTD that can withstand temperatures up to 100°C. The 3.5 × 2.8 × 1.85 mm LEDs are available in blue, green, yellow, amber, and red.
The application options for the robust and energy-efficient LEDs are wide ranging. They are suitable for signage and indirect lighting, backlighting in telecommunications applications or LCDs, as well as in fiber optic technology, Industrial and medical technology applications. As usual, Würth Elektronik offers all products in the series from stock with no minimum order quantity.
