Siemens could we so purposefully advance beyond
merely linking the ‘Industrial Internet of Things’ to ultimately
leverage digital engineering models for visual operations and
connected infrastructure asset performance. Given our long
history of sharing complementary technologies, we are very
excited to now contribute so broadly to Siemens’ industrial
digitalization leadership.”
Siemens AG (Berlin and Munich) is a global technology
powerhouse that has stood for engineering excellence,
innovation, quality, reliability and internationality for more
than 165 years. The company is active in more than 200
countries, focusing on the areas of electrification, automation
and digitalization. One of the world’s largest producers of
energy-efficient, resource-saving technologies, Siemens is No.
1 in offshore wind turbine construction, a leading supplier of
gas and steam turbines for power generation, a major provider
of power transmission solutions and a pioneer in infrastructure
solutions as well as automation, drive and software solutions
for industry. The company is also a leading provider of
medical imaging equipment – such as computed tomography
and magnetic resonance imaging systems – and a leader in
laboratory diagnostics as well as clinical IT. In fiscal 2015,

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE:
VSH) today introduced a new high-
brightness, tricolor LED optimized for
interior automotive lighting, RGB displays,
and backlighting. Featuring separate red,
green, and blue LED chips inside the
compact 3.5 mm by 2.8 mm by 1.45 mm
PLCC-6 surface-mount package, the Vishay
Semiconductors VLMRGB6112.. enables
individual control of each chip, making it
possible to realize every color within the
color room defined by the gamut triangle area inside the CIE
1931 color space through color mixing.
With its wide color range, the LED released today is ideal for
custom “welcome illumination” in next-generation automobiles;
large-format, full-color message and video display boards;
backlighting in consumer devices and appliances such as
PDAs, televisions, ovens, and microwaves; and a wide range
of accent and decorative lighting. For
these applications, the device utilizes
high-brightness AllnGaP and InGaN
technologies to deliver luminous
intensity to 1800 mcd at 20 mA and
features a ±60° angle of half intensity.
Providing high reliability, the
Automotive Grade VLMRGB6112..
offers a wide temperature range from
-40 °C to +110 °C, excellent corrosion
robustness and sulfur resistance
(H2S), and a UV-stable, diffused silicone casting compound for
a long lifetime. The LED is AEC-Q101-qualified, offers a Moisture
Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 2, and withstands ESD voltages up to
2 kV in accordance with JESD22-A114-B. Compatible with IR
reflow soldering, the device is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free,
and Vishay Green.
