Reliability of LED-based systems

Reliability is an essential scientific and technological domain intrinsically linked with system integration. Nowadays, semiconductor industries are confronted with ever-increasing design complexity, dramatically decreasing design margins, increasing chances for and consequences of failures, shortening of product development and qualification...

Lumen maintenance prediction for LEDs: New insights

Commercial claims for LED-based products in terms of lumen maintenance are fully based on TM-21 extrapolations using LM-80 data. We presented an approach based on statistical data analytics, following the work from Yu & Tseng, at EuroSimE2015. Since then, more LM80 test data came available both for High Power (HP) and Mid Power (MP) LEDs....

Color maintenance prediction for LED-based products

We have seen an increasing number of reported colour maintenance issues in the market when it concerns LED-based products. Besides this, there are also requests to provide products that have < 2 SDCM colour point changes over lifetime. To understand the mechanisms behind colour maintenance in our LED-portfolio we have developed a...

Statistical Analysis of Lumen Depreciation for LED Packages

Commercial claims for LED-based products in terms of lumen maintenance are fully based on TM-21 extrapolations using LM-80 data. This chapter indicates that there may be a risk in doing this as TM-21 only relies on the behavior of the average LED degradation, instead of taking into account the degradation of all individual LEDs. Therefore, we...
