HLMP-PB00-N0000

LED indications are common in the industrial and consumer markets, providing an immediate visual confirmation of an action or status. In particular, discrete LED indicators simplify product design, reduce costs and require minimal space. A frequent LED indicator choice is the HLMP-PB00-N0000, an LED lamp light source designed to emit a maximum of 2.2 mcd. Such an LED is used mainly in applications where space is limited.

Applications

The HLMP-PB00-N0000 offers benefits for various industrial, medical and consumer applications, including:

• Multimedia PCs. By indicating power, sleep and hibernation status, the HLMP-PB00-N0000 LED provides an immediate visual cue to users;
• White goods. Washing machines, dryers and ovens can benefit from LEDs for status and, possibly, operation control;
• Light indicators in mobile phones. HLMP-PB00-N0000 LEDs provide a subtle light indication of activities or occasions;
• Automotive application. Blinking lights in a car are a safety feature and have become a design element;
• Healthcare equipment. Blinking lights provide conspicuous information readily available.

Working Principle

LEDs generally consist of a light-transmissive material that is doped with a silicon or gallium phosphide material and implanted with either a p-n junction or an internal structure that produces the desired light output. An LED is typically a solid-state semiconductor device, typically made from materials like silicon and aluminum, since both of these materials have good thermal and electrical conductivity characteristics.

When an electrical current is applied to an LED, electrons combine with holes and energy is released in the form of visible light. The amount of light produced is dependent on the type and quality of the LED, and is proportional to the amount of current being supplied to the LED. The voltage used to power the LED must meet the LED\'s specifications.

Conclusion

The HLMP-PB00-N0000 is a popular LED lamp light source designed to emit a maximum of 2.2 mcd. It is mainly used in industrial, medical and consumer applications where space is limited, including multimedia PCs, white goods, automotive, health care equipment, and to provide light indicators in mobile phones. LEDs generate light by combining electrons and holes and releasing energy in the form of visible light, the amount of which is proportional to the amount of current being supplied to the LED.
