SFT-20 Product Datsheet

Understanding SMT Test Specifications

Every Luminus LED is tested to ensure that it meets the high quality standards expected from Luminus’products.

Technology Overview

Luminus Devices’ SFT series of illuminators is an innovative light source created for applications requiring high current density in a small

area. With its thermally efficient package, the SFT-20 chipset allows the end-product to deliver all the benefits of small, high performing

solid state light sources.

In Projection Display applications, The SFT series is environmentally friendly (Mercury-free), enables instant start and re-start with no

wait time, high reliability, and long life requiring no end-user or field replacement. Response time is extremely fast to enable frame-by-

frame color control in compatible systems.

Testing of SMT LEDs

The Luminus SFT series of products are measured in such a way

that allows high volume / fast paced production while providing

an accurate measurement that correlates with real world

operating conditions.

Luminus makes available corelation curves (page 8) that allows

the designer to predict with a high-level of accuracy the

performance that is to be expeted in a typical“Display”

application.

Innovative PackagingTechnology

Thermal management is critical in high power LED applications.

With its low thermal resistance the SFT-20 can be driven at

higher current densities while maintaining a low junction

temperature. This results in brighter solutions and longer

lifetimes.

Reliability

The SFT-20 has passed a rigorous suite of environmental and

mechanical stress tests, including mechanical shock, vibration,

temperature cycling and humidity. It is fully qualified for use in

high power / small form factor / high current dispaly

applications.

With very low failure rates and median lifetimes that typically

exceed 60,000 hours, Luminus SFT-Series of LEDs are ready for

even the most demanding applications. (Please refer to

Luminus’ Reliability application note for more information.)

Environmental Benefits

Luminus LEDs help reduce power consumption and the

amount of hazardous waste entering the environment. All LED

products manufactured by Luminus are RoHS and REACH

compliant and contain no lead or mercury.
