One of the greatest fulfilments of a PCB manufacturer is to produce boards that dissipate heat properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A circuit board<\/a> that dissipates heat effectively has a great potential to last longer than usual. And that’s what every PCB engineer wants to experience. That’s where the LED starboard comes in—an excellent example of a board with great heat dissipation properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, we’ll be talking about the LED starboard—in this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep reading to find out.<\/p>\n\n\n

What Is an LED Star Board?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In plain terms, unlike a <\/a>heat sink<\/a>, an LED starboard is a heat-spreader<\/a> that draws heat out from an LED module located in the center of the board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And an LED starboard usually has two pad terminals. One pad is an anode (+), and the other is a cathode (-).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technically, an LED starboard has a large surface area for thermal connection linking the heat sink. As a result, it makes the LED starboard system’s mechanical design easy and efficient<\/a> to operate.<\/p>\n\n\n

LED Starboard Features<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

1. Firstly, the LED starboard provides the flexibility required for creating lamps and other types of luminaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Then, at 700mA, the LED starboard gets binned and tested, making it easier to create more energy efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. And it has a current pulse duration of 20ms, and its thermal pads are stable at 25o<\/sup>C temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Besides, LED starboard comes with a 1000mA forward DC system and a 1200mA forward pulsed current at peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Finally, it comes with CRI and CCT combinations that support various applications.<\/p>\n\n\n

LEDs Mounted on Star Board<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n

Generally, mounted LEDs on starboards help to boost heat dissipation. And it’s all thanks to its super thermal pad<\/a> technology combined with the Star LED board; its heat dissipation feature is practical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that’s not all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LMB (LED Mounting Bases) usually offers the broadest range of MCPCB<\/a> electronic boards for LEDs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, the STAR MCPCB is the first MCPCB to gain from the super thermal pad technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, with the STAR MCPCB, LED producers can drive their boards to a higher power than conventional boards. At the same time, they maintain a reasonable junction temperature. Apparently, with a higher flux, the LED numbers decrease in a system.<\/p>\n\n\n

LED StarBoard Dimensions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n

The dimension of the LEDs starboard base layer is 1~1.6mm. On the other hand, the Dielectric<\/a> chemistry and copper circuit layers are 75 – 100μm and 2oz, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, here’s a table showing different LED start board material grades and dimensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Material Grade<\/td>Dielectric Thickness (Dimension)<\/td>Thermal Conductivity<\/td><\/tr>
T-Lam 1ka 04<\/td>100 μm<\/td>3 W\/mK<\/td><\/tr>
MP 03<\/td>75 μm<\/td>1.3 W\/mK<\/td><\/tr>
K1-Z<\/td>80 μm<\/td>2 W\/mK<\/td><\/tr>
NRA-8<\/td>80 μm<\/td>1.8 W\/mK<\/td><\/tr>
VT-4A1<\/td>75 μm<\/td>1.3 W\/mK<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n

Applications of LED Starboards<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n

Computers<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Portable devices<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Internal and external lamps and luminaries<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Industrial<\/p>\n\n\n

Closing Words<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n

Now, you have more than a glimpse of what LED starboards are and why you need<\/a> them for your applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
