Green, Blue and White LED's increase in brightness

Lumitex uses LED's to backlight LCD's and Membrane Switches.  Because of Lumitex's unique proprietary technology, we can use fewer LED's to cover a larger area.  The fact that these LED's have increased in brightness by as much as double allows Lumitex backlights to be even more competitive in cost, brightness and power consumption.

Lumitex releases new Fiber Optic Light Source (ILS-4)

The ILS-4 (Incandescent Light Source, 0.4 Watts) replaces the light source previously known as the DC-2.  It is 5 volts, 400 mW, has a 10,000 hour life and can light up to 400 fibers (this equates to 4 inches of width in a 1 layer panel and 2 inches of width in a 2 layer panel.  This source is ideal for small LCD and Membrane Switch backlights where white light is desired.  The source also works well in 1/4 VGA applications, eliminating the EMI normally associated with CCFL.
