What is LED?
A light emitting diode (LED) is essentially a PN junction opto-semiconductor that emits a monochromatic (single color) light when operated in a forward biased direction.
LED Source is a Solid State Light source – semiconductor component • A semiconductor device that converts electrical energy directly into
discrete color of light• Made from different materials and substrates • Made in chip fabrication factories• No brass, glass and and gass (“solid state”)• White LED Sources are a blue LED device + phosphor

LED Working Principle
• LEDs are semiconductor diodes• Semiconductors are materials with ability to conduct electrical current• Diodes are formed by combining two different semiconductor materials to form
a PN junction (P=charged positive(holes) and N charged negative(electrons)• By applying current, electrons(N) are forced to move to one direction and P to
the opposite direction• Photons (basic unit for electromagnetic radiation) are generated when the
positive and negative charges recombine

Zhaga Consortium
• Zhaga is a consortium of companies from throughout the international lighting industry. The organization is developing specifications that will enable the interchangeability of LED light sources made by multiple different manufacturers. www.zhagastandard.org
• Zhaga is an industry-wide collaboration between companies from across the globe. Members are luminaire manufacturers, LED module makers, material and lighting component suppliers as well as service providers such as laboratories.
• Zhaga’s goal is to develop and publish interface specifications that cover the physical dimensions, as well as the photometric, electrical and thermal behavior, of LED light engines.
• The individual specification documents, also known as Books (8 books), cover different types of LED light engines that are suitable for a range of applications.
• Since Zhaga was founded in February 2010, membership has grown to several hundred companies , example: BJB Gmbh, Fulham, GE, Osram, Philips Lighting, etc.
LED Binning8 9
Circuits & SystemLED
Combination of electronic parts, wires connected using suitable controlling & regulating devices between suitable power sources. They each have a physical property that interacts with electricity. When put in combination various actions occur.
An LED will light up when enough voltage is supplied but can also burn out if too much is allowed to pass through. The resistor will limit the voltage to prevent damage.
Parts :• LED’s (White / RGB)• Driver/Battery (Power Source)• Resistor / Capacitors• PCB’s / Terminals• Wires• Controls• Thermal Management• Optics
White / RGB LED
• Generates white light in a single LED by combining a blue (or UV) LED with a yellow phosphor coating
• Coating converts some blue photons into yellow photons
• Blue and yellow photons combine to generate white light
• Offers superior color rendering and efficiency
• Preferred method for producing LED white light
• Tri-color (RGB) LED fixtures combines red,
• Blue, and green in varying intensities to generate millions of colors
By Changing the Resistance / by controlling it using a potentiometer, you can play w/- various color combinations.

LED Power Supply or Driver
• LED’s are typically driven by a constant-current DC power source
• High brightness or power LED generally refers to an emitter package of roughly 1.2W at a drive current of 350 mA
• The light output of an LED is proportional to current applied, most high brightness LED sources will operate across a range of current
• Drivers also contain temperature sensitive electronic components
• There is energy lost in the power supply efficiencies can vary from 90% all the way down to 50% or lower
Thermal Management
• LED’s produce a fair amount of waste heat
• Excess heat reduces light output and shortens useful life
• Therefore, LED fixture design must effectively channel heat away from LED sources
• Thermal management features typically include an effective thermal path and heat sink.
• A heat sink is typically required to dissipate the heat produced by LED sources
• The interface between the circuit board and the heat sink is critical due to the heat sisitive nature of LED sources
• A thermally conductive material is typically used between the PCB and heat sink to minimize air gaps which reduce the transfer of heat

Temperature Vs LED Performance
Thermal management of LEDs plays the most important role in achieving the promised life-time
• Light output goes down as junction temperature goes up
• 100 % Lumen output @ 25°C Tj goes down to 85% Lumen Output @ 80°C Tj
Source: Cree
• Life is directly related to junction temperature
LED Optics
• Primary optics are frequently part of the LED source• Secondary optics are utilized to redirect light to produce a specific
pattern, distribution or beam of light• Secondary optics can consist of lenses, reflectors, light shaping films or
a combination of these elements• Some light is lost each time it is reflected or refracted, these are the
optical losses

LED Useful Life
• Changes in general office lighting levels go largely undetected as long as light levels stay above 70% of their initial levels, especially if the changes are gradual.
• Useful life is defined as the length of time it takes an LED light source to reach 70% of its initial light output (L70).
• Typical (L70) number is 50,000 hours.
Light Source Typical Range (Hours)
Incandescent 750-2,000 / rated life
Halogen Incandescent 2,000-4,000 / rated life
CFL 8,000-10,000 / rated life
Metal halide 7,500 – 20,000 / rated life
Linear Fluorescent 20,000 – 30,000 / rated life
White light LED 35,000 – 50,000 / useful life (L70)

Advantages of LEDs
Sn Criteria Advantages
1. Size LEDs can be very small and are easily arranged onto printed circuit boards.
2. Frequent Switching LEDs are ideal for use in applications that are subject to frequent on-off cycling, unlike fluorescent lamps that burn out more quickly when cycled frequently
3. Efficiency LEDs produce more light per watt than incandescent bulbs. Their efficiency is not affected by shape and size, unlike Fluorescent light bulbs or tubes.
4. Light Direction / Focus Uni-directional – Focusing of light is also possible.
5. Slow deterioration LEDs mostly fail by dimming over time & no abrupt burnt out
6. Shock resistance LEDs, being solid state components, are difficult to damage with external shocks, Vibrations or impacts,
7. Toxicity LEDs do not contain mercury or similar toxic materials
8. Color LEDs can emit light of an intended color without the use of the color filters that traditional lighting methods require.
9. Dimming LEDs can very easily be dimmed either by pulse-width modulation or lowering the forward current.
10. Cool Light LEDs radiate very little heat in the form of IR that can cause damage to sensitive objects or fabrics. Wasted energy is dispersed as heat through the base of the LED.
11. Lifetime LEDs can have a relatively long useful life. One report estimates 35,000 to 50,000 hours of useful
12. Switching Response time LEDs light up very quickly. LED’s have faster response time.
13. Maintenance Maintenance mostly limit to cleaning of fixture, So it is often considered as Zero Maintenance light source.
14. Lighting Controls Possibility of Controlling the RGB of LED sources by PC (DMX) Protocols to create changing luminous ambiences.
Disadvantages of LEDs
Sn Criteria Disadvantages
1. Blue Light Hazard Photobiological safety for Lamp and Lamp Systems shall be ensured by procuring LED’s from a reputable environmental friendly manufacturer.
2. Temperature Dependence
LED performance largely depends on the ambient temperature of the operating environment. Over-driving the LED in high ambient temperatures may result in overheating of the LED package, eventually leading to device failure. This ensures the importance of tested & certified products.
3. Voltage / Current Sensitivity
LEDs must be supplied with the voltage above the threshold and a current below the rating. This can involve series resistors or current-regulated power supplies.
4. Initial Price LEDs are currently more expensive, price per lumen, on an initial capital cost basis, than most conventional lighting technologies.
5. Polarity Issues Polarised components ensures the importance of qualified suppliers & technicians for assembling the unit.
6. LED Testing Standards Most of the LED Standards were under development & very less manufacturer’s follow those standards in actual applications.
