TE holders are the hub of LED interconnectivity providing reliable power connection, mechanical attachment, proper thermal force, and secondary optics attachment features for chip on board and array LEDs enabling designs to be more reliable, easier to user, and faster to market.
The TE Solderless LED Holder, Type Z50, is a circular LED holder that provides a quick and easy solderless connection to the Philips Lumileds LUXEON K 12 and 16 LED array families. TE’s Type Z50 holder allows the direct attachment of LUXEON K LEDs to a heat sink using standard screws, which enables designs to be more reliable, easier to user, and faster to market. The Type Z50 reduces assembly costs and provides a reliable solderless power connection, secure mechanical attachment, proper thermal hold down forces, and a landing zone with attachment features for additional secondary optics.
Its snap-in LED retention feature simplifies installation by securing the LED to the holder before mounting and its poke-in wire connection eliminates time consuming soldering to the LED.
TE’s Type Z50 holder enables constant thermal down force to minimize influence by thermal plastic deformation at high temperature and it makes easy and clean thermal paste application possible with built-in excess paste overflow feature, while it provides a specified and stable landing area for additional secondary optics.
