A new series of reverse-surface-mount LEDs has been developed that can be used for emitting light through an opening or hole in pc board. This allows the LEDs to illuminate overlays or target areas behind or under the circuit board itself. The LXR1206

A new series of reverse-surface-mount LEDs has been developed that can be used for emitting light through an opening or hole in pc board. This allows the LEDs to illuminate overlays or target areas behind or under the circuit board itself. The LXR1206 Series LEDs mount on the component side, yet emit light through the back side of the board.
Color choices for the LEDs include Super Intensity Red, Super Orange, Super Red, Super Yellow and Ultra Super Blue. Light output is as high as 250 mcd with a forward current of 20 mA. Part of the company's Surfeeled family of LEDs, the new SMT LEDs come with reverse-mounting contacts and have a typical pricing of $0.10 each/2,000.
