Although many traditional PCBS offer excellent features, not all PCBS are suitable for LED applications. For optimal performance in lighting applications, PCBS for LEDs must be designed to maximize heat transfer capacity. Aluminum-based circuit boards provide a common foundation for a variety of high-output LED applications, and LED lighting solutions are rapidly gaining ground in a variety of industries, valued for their low power consumption, high efficiency and impressive light output. Most high illumination output LED applications use aluminum-based circuit boards, mainly aluminum-based circuit boards that can achieve higher levels of heat transfer. What are the most common applications of PCB LEDs in the lighting industry?
1.Telecommunications: Telecommunications equipment typically uses PCBS to control their LED indicators and displays. In the industry, lightweight and durable PCBS are often advantageous, mainly due to the density of mechanical equipment in the industry. Because aluminum-based circuit boards tend to have better heat transfer characteristics than FR4 circuit boards, aluminum-based circuit boards are often found in telecommunications lighting applications.
2.Automotive Industry: PCB LED displays are common in the automotive industry, especially in dashboard indicators, headlights, brake lights, and advanced panel displays. The industry particularly likes PCB LED because of its low manufacturing cost and durability, which improves the value and service life of vehicles.
3.Computer technology industry：PCB-based LEDs are becoming more common in the computer technology industry and are commonly found in monitors and indicators for desktop and laptop computers. Due to the thermal sensitivity of computer technology, aluminum-based circuit boards are particularly suitable for LED lighting applications in computers.
4.Medical industry: Lighting tools are extremely important in medical applications, especially in surgical and emergency applications, where bright light can help improve the doctor’s vision. In these applications, LEDs are often the preferred lighting method because of their low power and small size. PCBS are often used as the basis for these applications, especially aluminum-based circuit boards, which have a longer service life and better heat transfer capacity compared to other types of PCBS. In this way, the aluminum-based circuit board ensures a long-lasting medical device that can be used repeatedly in a variety of medical environments.
5.Residential and storefront applications: In addition to the uses listed above, PCB LEDs are becoming increasingly popular in the form of signage and displays in homes and businesses. Smart LED lighting is an inexpensive way for homeowners to efficiently light their homes, while customization LED displays can direct business to storefronts.
