TOKYO (dpa-AFX) - Japanese electronics manufacturer Toshiba Corp. (TOSYY.PK, TOSBF.PK) Thursday announced the launch of ultra-small chip scale package white LEDs for lighting applications.
These can reduce the mounting area by 90 percent compared to conventional 3.0 x 1.4 mm package products, the company noted.
The new 'TL1WK series' will start sample shipment from April.
The new products utilize gallium nitride-on-silicon or GaN-on-Si process technology and a new process technology that fabricates the elements of a packaged LED on an 8-inch silicon wafer.
The new white LEDs will be showcased at 'Light+Building', a trade fair for lighting and architecture in Frankfurt, Germany from March 30 to April 4.
