Osram Opto Introduces Synios P 2720 - Optimized for Injecting Light into Light Guides
Osram Opto Introduces Synios P 2720 -  Optimized for Injecting Light into Light Guides The efficient LED light sources of the Synios P 2720 family from Osram Opto Semiconductors are based on compact dimensions and a scalable package concept, opening up new design options, particularly for car headlights. They have been optimized for injecting light into light guides, and can be used as daytime running lights, position lights, and in tail light clusters. From the outside, the 15 LED versions can hardly be distinguished from each other, with all of them having the same solder pad design and package dimensions. On the inside, however, various chip sizes with an edge length between 500 μm and 1 mm, different levels of brightness, and a broad range of colors make the LEDs extremely variable. Read more »
