LEEDARSON and Bridgelux partner to develop lighting products
LEEDARSON of Xiamen, China, an ODM partner for developing Internet of Things (IoT) products and the manufacturer behind many tech brands, and Bridgelux Inc of Fremont, CA, USA (a vertically integrated developer and manufacturer of solid-state light sources for lighting applications) have jointly announced a technology partnership on F90 LED lighting products.
As an ODM, LEEDARSON partners with businesses to help them design, manufacture, test, certify, kit and deliver IoT devices and end-to-end IoT services, leveraging multi-protocol standards, platforms and ecosystems to ensure IoT device interoperability.
Bridgelux’s new F90 Series LED uses potassium fluorosilicate (PFS) phosphor technology licensed from Current Lighting Solutions LLC for use in commercial lighting applications. By replacing broadband red nitride phosphor with narrowband red PFS phosphor, the F90 LED products can achieve today’s CRI80 LED efficacy with a CRI (color rendering index) of 90. Due to the partnership, LEEDARSON can work with Bridgelux to incorporate the new F90 LEDs for CRI90 conversion in luminaires (such as linear lamps, downlights, spotlights and high-bay) to provide lighting products with what is claimed to be industry-leading efficacy and high CRI.
“With LEEDARSON’s track record of bringing innovative lighting technology to market, this is an exciting opportunity for Bridgelux,” reckons Bridgelux’s CEO Tim Lester. “We anticipate the industry-leading efficacy, combined with high CRI, will be compelling in the commercial applications that Leedarson’s products serve.”
