LEDs

Discrete Light Emitting Diodes - Radial Leaded Styles:  The Lumex offering of LEDs with led frame radial leads and epoxy lenses is by far the most complete in the market.  It offers 76 packages and over 735 parts for the designer to select and comes as close to an ideal part without tooling a custom lens to emit light in the most desirable angle and intensity.  All of these products are made in an open-ended casting using a lead frame which carries the chip that is connected reliably via die attachment and wire bonding high-speed techniques.  The lead frame is then dipped into epoxy casting molds and filled with the desired epoxy mix and cured.  If none of the available parts meet the application, Lumex can assist and tool a mold to create a lens to your needs.  Chip technologies are endless from available colors, brightness and light emission patters of your choice.  Besides single chip LEDs, Lumex can offer bi-color, bi-polar (A.C.) and resistor-in-the-LED styles at very reasonable costs.

High Power LEDs:  High Power LEDs need to draw currents upwards of 120mA to support the light output at the specified levels.  This is the most critical issue for these LEDs as they need to dissipate the excess heat generated and to avoid heating up the chip junctions and subsequent early failures.  All Lumex High Power LEDs have been tested extensively at the rated power inputs to assure reliable operations.  This is an ever-expanding family of products with constant introductions of new models and ever increasing light output levels.  Contacting the Lumex Product Specialists is highly recommended prior to choosing any High Power LED.  Custom parts are feasible by variations in chip fabrication, chip selection and packaging techniques.

SMT Discrete Visible LEDs:  The Lumex family of SMT Visible LEDs is comprised of 60 styles and over 320 discrete parts.  Attaching and wire bonding a chip on a substrate is a relatively easy process, but when it needs to be done at high speeds and then a protective or optically active lens needs to cover the chips, only the very best can do it reliably.  The packages available utilize substrate carriers ranging from precision ceramics to high temperature special PCBs and high temperature molded housings.  Lumex pioneered SMT LEDs since 1983 offering the very first SMT LED using a precision ceramic carrier capable of wave soldering temperatures.  These LEDs are still available today and with the state-of-the-art chips, they are the premier product in the market in terms of reliability.  Lumex also avails the opportunity to have SMT LEDs made to fit your application by tooling PCBs and lens combinations to suit your needs.

LED Indicators

This is by far the largest collection for the designer of package LEDs and chips-on-board light bars.  Lumex's 28 year tenure in the market is the longest, uninterrupted presences that contribibutes to the continuing development of these types of LED assemblies.  They are developed with the intent to enhance the user interface of your products and help the end customer to effectively use and engage your products for the maximum benefit.

The PCB fault and status indicator family is made up of 70 styles and over 300 part numbers with mostly through-hole installation.  Color and power input choices are almost limitless.  There are over 28 styles of Panel Indicators offering over 230 parts to choose from.  They are available with black or chrome housings, various colors or lead lengths to suit your design needs.  LED Arrays are assembled with precision injected holders and individually selected LEDs to match in color and intensity for a very attractive looking multi-LED status indication on your instrument.  Light Bars are available in 15 styles and over 110 parts, in choice of size and color or color combinations.  In contrast with Array LED Assemblies, they are made using chips-on-board technology, reflector housings and epoxy filled lighted areas.  They are very attractive and easy to position on your board. 

Let Lumex's Product Specialists assist you with this plethora of bright solutions with the user interface features of your product.  Let Lumex help you shine!

 

Light Pipes

When light needs to travel where a surface-mount (SMT) LED cannot shine, a light piping solutions is in order.  Lumex offers high-quality light pipes designed to carry light from your board to virtually any desired location, such as your front panel.

Using new state-of-the-art ray trace software with precise 3D CAD/CAM models ensures the lowest possible light loss and the most consistent performance. Since the "trial-and-error" development of the light pipes is performed in software, engineering time is minimized and up-front costs are significantly reduced.


This cutting edge technology combined with years of design experience makes Lumex the most experience and cost-effective designer of light pipes in the industry today. 

The Lumex Engineering Team uses state-of-the-art tools to design light transporting parts and engages the best toolmakers for the acrylic and polycarbonate multi-cavity molds to produce these parts.  Light loss is minimized along with tooling costs as part of the tenured experienced in making light transporting solutions. 

Custom designs can be easily entertained as simple molds of existing tools.  For more information on our wide range of light pipe solutions, contact a Lumex Product Specialist.

 

LCDs

Lumex offers an ever-increasing product line of LCD options, including glass panel, character and graphic modules.  Lumex can also work with you to create custom and semi-custom modules and displays to suit all your design needs.

The Lumex LCD offering is aimed at designers of commercial and industry applications where ruggedness and design flexibility to fine-tune the supplied product are required.  The Lumex LCD Selection Assistant is also available to walk you step-by-step through some basic questions regarding the type of LCD module you are interested in.

Lumex offers over 100 standard parts within three main categories.  There are glass panel numeric or pictogram displays with no intelligence as part of the of the supplied part.  Numeric displays are available all the way to eight digits.  Character modules are available in 8 x 1 all the way up to 40 x 4 lines of digits with all electronics as part of the module for a true plug-and-play part.  There are graphic modules with 122 x 32 all the way up to 642 x 480 dots with all circuitry as part of the module for a true, ready to use graphic module.

Application-specific parts are available in any style with the ability to supply parts with different fluids, backlights and character layout and interface electronics.  Let the Lumex Technical Design Team guide you to an LCD solution that will work for you!
