High-Power LEDs (HP LEDs) are becoming increasingly popular in various applications. SM0805PGC, a high-power LED module, is a type of discrete LED that offers the robust performance, reliability, and efficiency demanded by advanced lighting systems. The SM0805PGC is a commercial grade, six-pin, 0.5 Watt, 8mm diameter module. It is rated for a minimum of 20mA and outputs a range of colors including red, orange, yellow, blue, and green. Its superior light extraction capabilities give it superior luminous intensity capabilities.

Application Field of SM0805PGC

The SM0805PGC is used in a wide range of applications―including automotive, industrial, commercial and household lighting and general lighting. Automotive applications use its superior light output properties to provide dynamic lighting for interior and exterior lighting. The SM0805PGC is also well-suited for use in industrial and commercial motor vehicles due to its strength, durability and low power consumption. Typical applications in these sectors include medical and instrument lighting, emergency lighting, signal lighting and displays.

In addition to its automotive applications, the SM0805PGC is popularly used in general lighting for household and public use. Its superior brightness and superior light extraction capabilities make it ideal for use in basic lighting systems. It is also used in numerous display applications such as bar graphs, LED indicator lights, and LED message displays. The SM0805PGC is also commonly used in street lighting, stage lighting, and night lights.

Working Principle of SM0805PGC

The SM0805PGC operates on the tried-and-true principle of forward voltage. The module is composed of a light emitting diode (LED), a forward-voltage source, a pin-out connector, and an electrical connector. When the module is activated, the forward-voltage source supplies the same voltage to both the anode and cathode of the LED. The difference between the anode and cathode voltages causes electrical current to flow through the LEDs, causing them to emit light.

The SM0805PGC is capable of controlling its output thanks to its intelligent design. The driver circuit of the module gently ramps up the voltage to the LEDs, then reduces the voltage based on the input current. This safeguards the LEDs against the damaging effects of excessive current. As a result, the SM0805PGC is capable of providing a constant and consistent level of light output.

Conclusion

SM0805PGC is a high-power LED module with excellent luminous intensity capabilities. It offers improved light output, efficiency and reliability for a wide range of applications in the automotive, industrial, commercial and household lighting. Moreover, its driver circuit provides enhanced performance and protection for the LEDs. SM0805PGC is a great choice for applications demanding robust lighting performance.
