Introducing HarvaLED

For Immediate Release

SANTA CLARA, Calif./EWORLDWIRE/March 28, 2005 --- Harvatek Corporation announces the immediate availability of two new HarvaLED light emitting diodes (LEDs) that offer a new level of performance for numerous backlighting and illumination applications.

Harvatek's HarvaLED HT-PX76 and HT-PX78 series are available in three watt sizes. HT-P176TW and HT-P178TW are one watt, white LED devices that deliver a typical output of 30 lumens at 0.35 ampere. HT-P276TW and HT-P278TW are 2.5 watt LEDs that deliver 60 lumens at 0.70 ampere. HT-P376TW and HT-P378TW are 3.5 watt LEDs that deliver 100 lumens at 1.05 ampere. Both HT-PX76 and HT-PX78 packages feature an integrated thermal management design that allows maximum luminous output over time. HT-PX78 is only 3.30 millimeters in thickness, while HT-PX76 includes a lens that collimates the light output. Both packages are fully surface-mountable and comply with industry lead-free initiatives.

Conventional LEDs typically require an external lens or optics to achieve similar performance achieved by the HarvaLED series.

"With the integrated optics featured by HT-PX76, the designer does not need to worry about the design and mechanical issues that arise with the use of a lens piece," said Holton Lee, Harvatek International's director of product marketing. "Also, the thermal resistance of the HarvaLED series is only 22oC/W, compared to over 200oC/W for other conventional through-hole packages, which allows for a significant improvement in power handling capability."
