June 17, 2004... Troy, NY, USA -? The Lighting Research Center at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute announced today that it will work with Evident Technologies of Troy, NY, to develop and demonstrate new, efficient white light-emitting diodes (LEDs ) for use in general illumination.
Funding for the project comes from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA). LED technology will lead to significant energy cost savings and environmental benefits as solid-state lighting begins to replace incandescent and other low-efficiency lighting sources in residential and Commercial buildings.
Dr. Nadarajah Narendran, Director of Research at the Lighting Research Center, said the LRC is committed to developing novel solid-state lighting systems that provide good color and higher efficiency than traditional light sources. ?As we improve system efficiency, we will help to Ensure their acceptance in the marketplace,? said Dr. Narendran. Market acceptance of new, efficient technologies is key to reducing energy consumption.
Evident Technologies will produce quantum dot nanomaterials, a new semiconductor particle that has tunable color properties. Quantum dot-based lights will be more efficient than halogen or incandescent lights. Dr. Clinton T. Ballinger, CEO of Evident Technologies, said quantum dot nanomaterials enable The production of white-light LED-based lighting systems that will produce light with better color qualities than current white-light LEDs, so they will be appealing enough to use in the home or office.
According to Dr. Narendran, quantum dots offer the potential for creating continuous spectra white light. The colors of objects illuminated by continuous spectra light sources appear truer than those illuminated by current white LED light sources.
NYSERDA President Peter Smith said he hopes the authority?s investment in the project will accelerate the replacement of inefficient incandescent and halogen lights in New York State. This, he says, will save residents money on energy bills while protecting the environment by reducing greenhouse gases From fossil-fuel electricity generation in New York State.
About the Lighting Research Center:
The LRC is part of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and is the leading university-based research center devoted to lighting. Through Rensselaer, the LRC offers the worlds only MS degree in lighting and other master? S and doctoral degrees with concentrations in lighting. Since 1988 the LRC has built an international reputation as a reliable source for objective information about lighting technologies, applications, and products. It also provides training programs for government agencies, utilities, contractors, lighting designers, and other lighting professionals.
The LRCs Solid-State Lighting Program conducts research and educational programs to enhance this technology and help it gain acceptance for general illumination purposes. The LRCs multidisciplinary team researches how lighting systems interact; how people perceive and react to lighting conditions; and how to use LEDs To replace less efficient lighting. The ASSIST Program, a collaborative effort by researchers, manufacturers, utilities, and government, works to facilitate broad adoption of LED technology.

5.08MM Power+ Signal Power Connector
2.54MM Pitch Signal Power Connector.Chip power connector is used in power module system. It can select the matching power + signal connector according to the need. The feature is that the number of power and signal contacts and the matching sequence can be selected arbitrarily while keeping the connector size and contact core number unchanged.
Plug (male) / socket (female) can be installed at 90 or 180 degrees. It supports mixed or independent combination of signal and power. The quantity range of power and signal is (2-16) pin and (12-128) pin respectively
Product features
High temperature resistant, glass fiber reinforced and flame retardant polyester is used as insulation material
Copper gold composite conductor with high conductivity is used, and the contact area of the conductor is plated with gold
It adopts shrapnel contact, which has the characteristics of integration, small volume, large current carrying capacity, soft plug-in, blind plug-in, self guidance and high dynamic contact reliability. This series of products can be interchanged with FCI's powerblade series and Tyco's multi-beam series
The length of power hole / signal pin can be selected in two sizes. The power rated current is 45A and the signal rated current is 2.5A
