IRC And Optek Offer Comprehensive LED Lighting Solutions

TT electronics’ IRC Advanced Film Division and Optek Technology announced that they have developed an LED microsite, which the companies claim showcase their broad range of solid-state lighting solutions.

"By developing LED products in concert with OPTEK, we are able to provide lighting designers and engineers with a comprehensive, one-stop-shop for all of their lighting needs," said Steve Wade, Director of Sales and Marketing for IRC’s Advanced Film Division. "This website details not only our extensive line of discrete LED components, but gives customers insight into our capabilities as designers and IRC’s substrates and assemblies as well."

IRC and Optek also offer an LED design kit, containing several LED assemblies, to help engineers get started with their solid-state lighting designs.

"We developed this website as a comprehensive design resource to help our customers compile the information they need on LED discretes and assemblies to convert to the latest technology," said Alan Bennett, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Optek Technology. "The gaming and vending machine markets have realized the benefit of converting to solid-state lighting, and customers in other markets are beginning the transition as well. This website gives them a starting point for understanding what we offer in products and engineering expertise. Lighting engineers realize that when they make the conversion from traditional incandescent or fluorescent lighting to solid state technology, there are numerous challenges to address, and Optek has the expertise coupled with IRC’s product offering in substrate technology to address those challenges."

IRC and Optek’s broad product offering includes visible LED components, thermal management substrates, as well as both standard off-the-shelf and custom LED assemblies. The solutions are suitable for a wide range of lighting applications, including backlighting, general illumination, and indication.
