TriLumina, developer of flip-chip VCSEL (vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser) technology for 3D sensing, announces the launch of the world’s first surface-mount flip-chip back-emitting VCSEL array without the need for a submount or bond wires, which allows for lower costs and higher performance than existing designs using near-infrared light-emitting laser diodes or LEDs for 3D sensing. Conventional […]
How LiFi and LEDs will combine to brighten our future
by Paul Golata, Mouser Electronics Gone are the days when lights were standalone devices whose sole purpose was to illuminate a particular area. The rise of connectivity and data-dependency in our lives means the role of luminaires is changing. Connected lighting systems (CLSs), using light-emitting diode (LED) technology and Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity, now […]

Don’t get burned about LED UV
Another myth busted: You needn’t worry about ultraviolet light coming from ordinary LED bulbs. We recently checked a batch of LED bulbs for the amount of blue light they gave off. This effort came in response to claims from some in the alternative medicine crowd that LED bulbs gave off inordinate amounts of unhealthy blue […]
