LED is short for Light Emitting Diode. At present, SMD packaging is the most widely used packaging form in LED applications. Generally, the light emitted by a single LED assembly is limited. So a light fixture will use multiple LED components to get enough light. Like other semiconductor devices, PCB are the best way to electrically connect LED components. PCB with LED components are often referred to as "LED PCB".

Metal core PCB are widely used in LED applications because of their strong heat dissipation capabilities, especially aluminum is often used for PCB production of LED lights. Typically, aluminum PCB contain a thin layer of thermally conductive dielectric material that can transfer and dissipate heat much more efficiently than traditional rigid PCB.

Advantages of LED

1. Lower power consumption: Replacing incandescent lamps with LED lamps can reduce power consumption by more than 80%.

2. Longer Life: LED generally have a long service life and can be used for 3-5 years, which not only saves costs, but also reduces the frequency of replacement.

3. Higher Efficiency: Incandescent lights release more heat, and LED lights can reduce it by up to 20%. This shows that unnecessary heating can be reduced while using more powerful LED lights. This shows that unnecessary heating can be reduced while using more powerful LED lights.

4. Smaller volume: Due to their small volume, LED lights can have various sizes and can be used in different places. Manufacturers can add LED to anything, whether it's electronics or cars, even traffic lights and signs on the road.

5. Environmental protection: Compared with other bulbs, LED lamps do not contain mercury. So LED have less impact on the environment and are easier to handle.


Nowadays, with the rapid development of electronic technology, it is precisely because LED has the above advantages that it brings convenience to people's daily life and other aspects, so the application field of LED PCB is very wide.
