Bytech Achieves Landmark AEC-Q102 Certification for Automotive-Grade UVC LED Technology

Bytech announced that it has become the first domestic company to achieve AEC-Q102 certification for automotive-grade UVC LED products, a significant milestone that places China’s UV LED technology into the global automotive supply chain for the first time.

The newly certified 275 nm deep-ultraviolet (UVC) LED delivers 99.99% sterilization efficiency, making it an ideal solution for improving in-vehicle health and safety. By disrupting the DNA or RNA of bacteria and viruses, UVC radiation prevents microbial growth and reproduction, effectively neutralizing airborne and surface-level pathogens.

The certified product features a full inorganic airtight package constructed from aluminum nitride ceramic, metal, and hard glass, ensuring exceptional durability and reliability. Key specifications include:

Wavelength: 270–280 nm
Optical Output: ~17 mW @ 100 mA
Voltage: 5–7 V
Viewing Angle: 120°
Service Life: >20,000 hours
Electrostatic Protection: ≥ ±8,000 V (HBM)
RoHS compliant

Designed with low thermal resistance and a thermo-electric separation substrate, the LED achieves efficient heat dissipation and long operating stability. Patent protection further strengthens its competitive edge.

Features and Benefits

Strict Certification: AEC-Q102 approval demonstrates high resistance to heat, vibration, and demanding automotive conditions.
High Sterilization Efficiency: 275 nm UVC rapidly neutralizes bacteria and viruses, purifying both cabin air and interior surfaces.
Safe Operation: An intelligent protection mechanism eliminates ozone leakage, ensuring safety for both passengers and vehicle systems.
Fexible Integration: Optimized for automotive HVAC systems, car purifiers, and other in-cabin applications; available with OEM/ODM customization.

Beyond the automotive sector, Bytech’s UVC LED technology supports a wide range of sterilization, disinfection, and air purification use cases. These include water and liquid treatment, food preservation, VOC reduction, and biochemical analysis—making it a versatile solution for industries where hygiene and safety are paramount.

“This achievement not only validates the quality and reliability of Bytech’s UVC LED products, but also paves the way for wider adoption in the automotive industry,” said a company spokesperson. “With this certification, we are opening the door to new applications and setting the foundation for safer, healthier driving experiences worldwide.”

Bytech plans to continue expanding its product line to meet automotive regulations and international standards, with a strong focus on sustainability and innovation.
