Description
The LED Light Source is based
on clustered High Flux AlInGaP
LEDs in a series/parallel circuit,
assembled onto a metal core
printed circuit board (MCPCB).
The reliable connections provide
mechanical sturdiness and good
electrical and thermal
conductivity. This component is
designed and manufactured by
LumiLeds Lighting, and sold and
supported by Hewlett-Packard.
Designers who are seeking a
reliable solid state light source
offering a very high luminous
output will experience reduced
design time and enhanced
reliability by this preassembled
LED array. While the LED Light
Source is optimized for use in
traffic signals, its small size and
versatility make it a good choice
for many applications.

Benefits
•
Highest Luminous Flux per
Surface Area for any LED
Source
•
Radiation Pattern Provides
Uniform Luminance across
Entry Plane of Secondary
Optics
•
Colors Meet Traffic
Signaling Requirements
•
Suitable for Application in
an Outdoor Signaling
Device
on new packaging technology
and large LED chip sizes. These
lamps offer greater efficiency and
reliability at high current than
traditional LEDs.
Built with the same aluminum
indium gallium phosphide
(AlInGaP) LED technology as
Hewlett-Packard’s Precision
Optical Performance lamps,
these products deliver a luminous
efficiency of approximately 18
lumen per watt. Superior
temperature and moisture
resistance result from an
advanced LED package design.
The LED Light Source has a NTC
(Negative Temperature
Coefficient) or thermister to
monitor the board
temperature.

Notes:
1.
T is the temperature of the metal core printed circuit board (MCPCB). This temperature value can be measured on either side of
B
the board.
2. Board temperature of 50°C is equivalent to an ambient temperature of 25°C, with a power dissipation of 11.25 W (750 mA) and a
thermal resistance of 2.2°C/W from board to ambient.
3. Always protect device against reverse voltage.
4. Projected value. Tested typical value to be announced at a later time.
5. In the United States, HPWL-MDB1 is targeted for a 12 inch traffic signal and HPWL-MDA1 is for an 8 inch traffic signal.
6. Characteristic temperature predicts light output at LED junction temperatures other than 25°C with constant current through the
equation:
