HOW?

REVEALING THE LED LINEAR ADVANTAGES

ADVANTAGE 1

Other tapes use resistors and lose more than 25% of light at the end of the run. The light fades along the tape.LED Linear uses IC drivers that guarantee 100% consistent light over the full specified length of the products.

LED Linear tapes are controlled by Integrated Circuit (IC) drivers

ADVANTAGE 1

IC Controlled DC Circuitsn Current is regulated on each stepn Light Output is stable over the entire lengthn 3V built-in buffer to compensate for voltage dropsn Reverse polarity protection for fool-proof installations

Resistor Controlled DC Circuitsn Voltage drop is not balanced along the tapen Light output decreases over the lengthn Resistors heat up and affects lifetime negatively

It is easy to identify the difference. Just look at the tape! OTHERS



ADVANTAGE 2

State of the art custom designed R2R tape manufacturing facility100% automationHigh production capacity – up to 2500 miles of tape annuallyPrecise batch control through QR codingLow production failure rate (0.1 ppm)

LED Linear tapes are produced with Reel-to-Reel (R2R) Technology in Germany

ADVANTAGE 3

The Tj-Away® (Thermal Junction Away) – Technology is characterized by large copper areas below the LED, which ensure rapid heat dissipation and heat spread away from the LED.

LED Linear tapes have patented TjAway thermal management technology

TjAway® Thermal

Management

Due to Tj-Away® we achieve thermal power densities less than 2.7 W / in2 with electrical input power of 12.5 W / ft. This is 30% cooler than other’s tapes. Thin adhesive tape with superior heat conduction guarantees rapid heat transfer into aluminum profiles.

LED Linear tapes have One Bin Only Technology for color consistency

ADVANTAGE 4


REEL 2 REEL

One Bin Only stands for true color consistency within a 3 step MacAdams Ellipse located in the center ANSI bin.

During the standardized LM80 test cycle time of 10,000 hours the maximum color shift Δu’v’ is better than 0.001 (< 1 SDCM) which guarantees impressive color consistency over time.

The absolute CIE (x,y) drift stays well within a 3 step MacAdams ellipse and cannot be recognized by the human eye.
