Philips Rolls Out Itty Bitty LED

August 22nd, 2012 by Chelsea

Philips has produced a tiny new LED, small enough to mount 250 of them in one-square inch. These LEDs, called the LUXEON Z, can be mono-color or multi-color, in a full spectrum of colors including white.

The LUXEON Z is 80 percent smaller than traditional LEDS and is expected to be easily adapted to for various packaging and design purposes.
