- Seoul Semiconductor Launched Ultra-Slim Z-power LED 'Z1' for Lighting
- SEOUL, KOREA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/24/08 -- Seoul Semiconductor, a leading LEDmanufacturer, ranking 6th worldwide and 1st in Korea, announced it releaseda 1.4W ultra-slim Z-power LED series 'Z1'; Warm White (part # : NZ10150)and Pure White (part # : WZ10150).
A Seoul official in charge of Z1 development said, "Maximum lumens ofNZ10150 and WZ10150 are 95 and 120 respectively, the average lumens being80 and 105 each." And he added, "Because the body of Z1 is made of ceramicwith high thermal conductivity and equipped with spacious radiation plate,customers can manage heat easily. Because these features enable Z1 to emitbright light much longer in high temperature (in other words, it maintainsits reliability longer), it can be quite useful in designing indoor andoutdoor lightings, and home appliances."
With a thickness of 1.2 mm like a credit card, Z1 is very slim as a HB LED.Thus, it can be one of the most optimal LEDs to be used for various kindsof compact products well matched to current trends.
The Z1 will be applicable to various fields of lighting, the most typicalapplication fields being sign display, replacement plate lighting like inrefrigerators, cabinet lighting installed in narrow spaces, securitylighting and decorative recessed lighting.
