LED-display assemblies indicate electronic status from on/off, stop/go, speed, alarm and other indications. Value can be found by creating a single LED assembly to replace light pipes or bulky and costly wire harnesses. Eliminating lightpipes where products have high numbers of indicators can significantly simplify mechanical designs and assemblies.</p><p style="margin:0;">Molex display assemblies may be designed with a large numbers of indicators, and be combined with switches, backers, seven-segment LED-displays or LCDs. Molex&#39;s engineering group can help integrate ICs, resistors and other components to enhance or expand the performance and functionality of the displays. A Molex LED-display assembly can reduce a component BOM and improve the quality by providing a complete tested assembly.</p><p style="margin:0;"><strong>Features &amp; Benefits</strong></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"><strong> </strong>&nbsp;</p><table cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td class="even">Low-profile solution to icon and display backlighting</td><td class="even">Helps maximize motherboard PCB spacing, in products where design layouts are tight</td></tr><tr><td>EMI, RFI standard, and ESD shielding</td><td>Eliminates the need for light pipes normally used for shielding purposes</td></tr><tr><td class="even">Led-Display Assemblies mounted directly on the faceplate of the product</td><td class="even">Cosmetically appealing<br />Eliminates LED mis-registration</td></tr><tr><td>Pressure-sensitive adhesive for product mounting</td><td>peal-n-stick adhesive is easy to apply</td></tr><tr><td class="even">One-piece solution to LED indication</td><td class="even">Low-cost solution</td></tr><tr><td>Superior reliability</td><td>500 million LEDs bonded to switches</td></tr></tbody></table><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><strong>Applications</strong></p><h3>Consumer</h3><ul><li>ATM Machines</li><li>Appliances</li><li>Backlit applications</li><li>Fish finders</li><li>Fitness Equipment</li><li>GPS</li><li>Hot tubs</li><li>MP3 players</li><li>PDAs</li><li>Point of Sales Terminals</li><li>Printers</li><li>Set-top box</li></ul><h3>Data/Communications</h3><ul><li>Routers</li><li>Servers</li></ul><h3>Industrial Production Equipment</h3><ul><li>Automation controllers</li><li>Barcode Scanners</li><li>Battery chargers</li><li>Fluid detection</li><li>Forklifts</li><li>Generators</li><li>Hand-held devices</li><li>Power supplies</li><li>Rugged environments</li><li>Scales</li><li>Waterproof applications</li></ul><h3>Medical</h3><ul><li>Defibrillators</li><li>Disposable dental equipment</li><li>Disposable seat sensors</li><li>Disposable surgical equipment</li><li>EKG leads</li><li>Electronic sensors</li><li>Glucose meters</li><li>Infusion pumps</li><li>Patient Monitor</li><li>Portable oxygen units</li></ul><h3>Military/Aerospace</h3><ul><li>Aviation controls</li><li>Communication systems</li><li>Sighting systems</li><li>Targeting systems</li></ul><h3>Telecommunications</h3><ul><li>Cell phones</li><li>PDAs</li><li>Smartphones</li><li>Two-way radios</li></ul><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: lighting, molexlighting, assemblies, pt:led, display, sp:molex</div>
