OSTAR Lighting Plus – a Newcomer to the High-power Portfolio

Nov 4, 2010 OSRAM Opto Semiconductors presents OSTAR Lighting Plus – the high-power LED with a large amount of light from a small area. It contains four chips fabricated in state-of-the-art UX:3 chip technology and emits either cold white or warm white light.

The LED has a brightness of 425 lm (5700 K to 6500 K) or 365 lm (2700 K to 4000 K) at an operating current of 350 mA. This corresponds to a typical efficiency of around 100 lm/W or around 80 lm/W. Homogenous white light is ensured by an ANSI-compatible binning system with finely graded classes. The LED is easy to handle thanks to its SMT compatibility.

With a power draw of less than 5 W the warm white OSTAR version produces 365 lm. Energy savings of more than 80% can therefore be made despite a luminous flux that is 65% higher – a major contribution to energy-efficient lighting. Only four OSTAR Lighting Plus units are needed to replace a frosted 100 W incandescent lamp. And a color rendering index of 80 is no less impressive.

The applications for the new power LED cover interior lighting for shops, offices and homes, spotlighting.

OSTAR Lighting Plus will be premiered in November 2010 at electronica in Munich (hall A3, booth 107) and will be available on the market at the start of 2011.
