At the Mobile World Congress 2014, Samsung Electronics will showcase new LED component solutions for smartphones and tablets.
Some of these new additions will feature in the next Samsung Galaxy.
Samsung’s new LEDs for mobile devices include two reflector-integrated flash LED packages ─ the 3432 1.8t (FH341A) and 3432 1.4t (FH341B), plus a flip-chip flash LED 2016 (FH201A), as well as two side-view LEDs ─ the 3810 0.6t (MS062F) and 3810 0.8t (MS082F).
The Korean consumer electronics vendor will start mass producing the new mobile-market LEDs in March, which are likely to then begin appearing in the open market in the second quarter.
Samsung’s new reflector-integrated flash LEDs are designed to enable a great deal of flexibility by providing a wide FOV within a small space through the integration of a light source, a lead frame, and a reflector with its own optics and diffusion features.
Samsung’s new reflector-integrated flash LED ─ the 3432 1.8t (FH341A) delivers over 165 lux at 1A and a minimum CRI (Color Rendering Index) of 80, assuring quality photos in daylight and at night. The 3432 1.8t will be used in the next Galaxy smartphone, which is expected to be introduced later this month.
3432 1.4t (FH341B) is specifically designed for mobile OEMs seeking extra-slim LED solutions. The 3432 1.4t package includes a reflector and is only 1.4mm thick, a thickness ideal for smartphones and tablets thinner than 7mm. In addition, it provides a minimum illuminance level of 165 lux.
The new standard flash LED 2016 (FH201A) applies Samsung’s cell-film phosphor technology to flip-chip packages, which applies a thin film of phosphor to each package.
Samsung’s 2016 offers 220lm of light output and improves color deviation by approximately 40 percent compared to packages using Samsung’s previous technology that dispensed phosphor on each chip. This more affordable LED solution also offers a high level of color quality, which is rare to traditional flash LED products. By introducing its first 2016-sized flash LED package, Samsung has further strengthened its mobile LED component line-up.
Samsung’s Side View LEDs ─ 3810 0.6t (MS062F) and 3810 0.8t (MS082F) features high color reproducibility, thanks to their high brightness levels. Samsung’s Side View LED packages are also power-efficient, operating on less than 2.9 volts.
Samsung’s 3810 0.6t provides 3.1cd, while coming in at a 0.6mm in z-height – ideal for slim smartphones and tablets. The 3810 0.8t offers more luminous intensity at 3.2cd, with a 0.8mm thickness, making it suitable for tablet and notebook PCs.
