| IRC's Anotherm® Plus Technology |
Thursday, May 29, 2008
LAS VEGAS, NV (May 6, 2008) --Providing lighting system design
engineers with an improved thermal solution for LED and solid state
lighting systems, TT electronics IRC has enhanced their Anotherm®
substrate technology with a thermally efficient glass dielectric
material that withstands higher voltages, and enables increased
light output for LEDs. Designated Anotherm® Plus, the anodized
aluminum material enhances thermal management for power LEDs
in applications such as gaming and vending machines, outdoor
signage and display, aquarium lighting, emergency vehicle lighting,
as well as architectural and general lighting.
"Compared to other metal core PC boards, the Anotherm® Plus
substrates have improved adhesion and pull strength as well as higher
dielectric strength, and provide more options for design engineers from
a surface standpoint," said Tom Morris, applications engineering
manager for IRC's Advanced Film Division. "The Anotherm® Plus
material's high thermal conductivity and low thermal resistance
characteristics help increase the LEDs' lifespan."
The Anotherm® Plus technology consists of a highly thermally
conductive aluminum alloy substrate, with a thermally conductive
glass dielectric material that is printed directly onto the aluminum
substrate, providing excellent thermal transfer for LED assemblies
that are mounted directly onto the substrates.
