Short wave infrared emitters in a chip scale package introduced by Marktech Optoelectronics

Sept. 8, 2021
SWIR technology uses unique SMD package, offering both high sensitivity and high reliability.

Latham, NY, USA – Marktech Optoelectronics, Inc. (www.marktechopto.com)(Marktech), a privately-held and veteran-owned leading designer and manufacturer of standard and custom optoelectronics, including UV, visible, near-infrared (NIR), and short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) emitters, detectors, InP epi wafers, and other compound semiconductors, announced the introduction of chip-scale packaged (CSP) short wave infrared emitters (also known as CSP SWIR LEDs, CSP short wave IREDs, or CSP SWIR emitters).
The availability of SWIR LEDs or emitters in a chip-scale packaged form factor is an industry first. The compactness of the new CSP SWIR LEDs is impressive. In fact, a dozen or more of Marktech’s CSP SWIR emitters would fit on the surface of a penny. The high-performance CSP short wave infrared emitter products are available in wavelengths ranging from 1040 to 1650 nm.

The major performance attributes of Marktech’s CSP short wave infrared emitters include:

  • Up to double the power output - High-performance SWIR LED dies in the CSP package provide up to 2X the power output compared to older, conventional SWIR LED chips
  • Compact CSP LED size enables high stacking density on a printed circuit board (PCB) due to the small 1.6mm X 1.6mm footprint
  • Improved SWIR component reliability
  • Increased SWIR component lifetime or mean time between failures (MTBF)
  • Lower thermal resistance compared to plastic leaded chip frame (PLCC) SMD SWIR LEDs

The high compactness and high power output of Marktech’s new chip-scale short-wave infrared LEDs will enable engineers to shrink and enhance their optoelectronic SWIR design projects. Adoption of CSP SWIR LEDs in new products under development will likely lead to breakthrough designs in many industrial applications.
