SemiLEDs Corp, a manufacturer of high power LEDs in the US, has opened its third production facility in Hsin-Chu Science Park, Taiwan. This production facility is said to bring the company's production capacity to 15 million 1 x 1mm high-power LED chips per month.

Manufactured and processed using a proprietary MvpLED process, SemiLEDs' LED chips are claimed to achieve best thermal resistance on the market (0.4°C/W), as well as providing various optical and electrical advantages. Packaged LEDs using SemiLEDs 1 x 1mm chips typically produce over 110lm at 5000K and 350mA. Trung Doan, CEO of SemiLED, said the company's LEDs maintain the lowest carbon footprint on the market due to its Sapphire reclamation process.

The company said its LED chips in blue, green and UV have been gaining tremendous demand from LED packagers and chip-on-board integrators due to their vertical structure, industry leading thermal resistance and low forward voltage, all of which contribute greatly to efficiency and reliability.
