SML-A12U8TT86

LED Indication - Discrete

The SML-A12U8TT86 is a discrete LED indicator using single-walled conjugated molecules known as conjugated polymers molecules, or PPOs, as the active luminescent material. Enhancing the wavelength-dependent energy transfer within the material, the PPOs can be adjusted to provide true red, orange, yellow, green, and blue color options — which are all highly visible even outdoors or at a distance.

In everyday use, the SML-A12U8TT86 serves a variety of purposes, including providing visibility and indication of the application’s various settings or states. These indicators can be integrated in virtually any circuit or system and can be used to bring attention to safety warnings, indicate when power is supplied, or even to locate switches or buttons among many other uses.

Application Field

The SML-A12U8TT86 is an ideal discrete LED indicator for a variety of applications. It can be used indoors in pathways, navigation systems, signaling systems, stairwells, and a variety of other environments requiring discrete visibility. The indicator is also suitable for outdoor application such as traffic light signals and emergency lights.

Apart from its luminous quality, this indicator also offers increased energy efficiency, a long service life, a waterproof design, and a wide range of colors. This makes it ideal for applications where efficiency and visibility are both a priority.

Working Principle

The SML-A12U8TT86 is a highly efficient, discrete LED indicator. It uses a two-tiered excitation principle to achieve brightness, which is the result of enhanced luminescence inside the device. Within the device are two distinct layers: an active phosphor layer and an outer light-emitting layer.

The active phosphor layer is made up of PPOs, which undergo a specific type of energy transfer called fluorescence. When a current is applied to the device, electrons within the PPOs absorb energy and are excited to a higher level of energy. This energy is released as light — producing the desired color. The outer light-emitting layer further enhances the device’s efficiency by providing an additional energy transfer pathway — resulting in further increased brightness.

The SML-A12U8TT86 also uses an advanced, integrated driving circuit, which further enhances its efficiency and brightness. This driving circuit enables the unit to operate on a range of voltages and includes protection features, such as thermal protection and over-voltage protection.

Conclusion

The SML-A12U8TT86 is a highly efficient discrete LED indicator designed for a wide range of applications. It uses enhanced fluorescence combined with an advanced driving circuit to provide increased brightness and visibility. The unit is also highly efficient and resistant to water and dust, which makes it a suitable choice for both indoor and outdoor applications.
