Light emitting diodes (LEDs) have become a popular lighting choice across the world, owing to their several advantages. These include low power consumption, high energy efficiency, long lifespan, compact designs, and low environmental impact. LED with a chip is soldered onto a PCB, and the chip lightens up when it is connected electrically. Being a leading LED PCB manufacturer in the US, Sierra Assembly Technology, Inc. assures the fastest turnaround times on all LED PCBs.

Benefits of LED PCBs
Today, the LED PCBs are commonly preferred for lighting applications owing to several benefits they offer. The following key features of these PCBs have contributed to their easy acceptance across various industries.
-
As in most LED PCBs, the LED’s are integrated into the PCB membrane switch designs, thereby forming LED membrane switches. These LED membrane switches are thin, lightweight, and help reduce the size of the complex printed circuit boards or switch interfaces.
-
The LED membrane switches offer lots of design freedom, which makes them a suited choice for designing complex switch interfaces.
-
These PCBs are widely used in the consumer and industrial applications owing to their low power and voltage consumption.
-
Most LED PCBs are made of aluminum, which is capable of high thermal heat transfer. This helps prevent the circuit from getting damaged due to high heat.
-
The metal aluminum used in the PCB is lightweight, recyclable, durable, and non-toxic, which helps users minimize their carbon footprint.
