RGB LEDs can be controlled separately to produce various colours

The Multi CHIPLED RGB LED from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors are available now from RS Components, features three dies (red, true green and blue) which can be controlled separately to produce many colours including white. These multi-chip packages have a black body which provides an enhanced contrast. Typical applications for the LTRB R8SF CHIPLED include Pachinko machines, backlighting for LCDs, coupling into light guides, keys, switches, illuminated advertising and general lighting. The RGB multi-chip LEDs feature an operating temperature range between-40C to +85C and are offered in a compact SMT package measuring 3.1mm x 3.1mm x 0.95mm. This device is particularly designed for full-colour video walls. The four-lead common anode technology admits an additive mixture of colour stimuli by independent driving of each chip. Very compact package size fits best for high-resolution narrow pitch video walls.
