Decorative flexible light LEDs for consumer and industrial apps

Avago’s ASMT-Lx50 and Lx60 are said to be the industry’s first light strip modules that can be bent into any shape that a designer can imagine without affecting performance. The thin flexible light optical light strips, which provide a bright “neon wire� effect, come preassembled and provides designers with an unlimited range of decorative lighting possibilities.

Avago’s family of light strips is ideal for electronic product designers to add decorative trim around computer mice, and portable handheld devices such as cellular phones, MP3 players, and games. These flexible light strips are available in red, green, blue, and white illuminated colors, in 1.0- or 1.4mm diameters, in linear or loop configurations. The lengths range from 10 to 50cm (30cm for 1.0mm diameter) and offer nearly constant illumination over their entire length. The ASMT-Lx50 and ASMT-Lx60 are designed for maximum light extraction from their internal surface-mount LEDs to the light strip. The complete modules are available for operation at 5, 9 or 12V.
