Crystal power is expected to become the first to enter the NB with LED backlight supply chain platform plant

LED announced big manufacturers crystal electric before the brightness of the company's new LED products will be upgraded to 2000mcd, is expected to become the first into the high order NB backlight LED chip factory in Taiwan. The move is expected to break the original Japanese manufacturers Nichia, TOYOTA has a LED chip synthesis patent advantage, LED chip also makes Taiwan LED backlight factory has the opportunity to purchase Taiwan factory.

Prior to 2007 EPISTAR has been only in Taiwan factory blue LED chip brightness up to 1700mcd, while the Japanese manufacturers in 2008 will have to increase the brightness of more than 2000mcd, the internal crystal electric company has set the development target, brightness to within half a year to catch up with the international water giant LED products, at present has been ahead in 2008 the first half of the year to achieve the goal.

The NB LED backlight brightness requirements of high brightness, about more than 1800mcd, and the industry began to use the 2000mcd LED chip manufacturers in Japan after the brightness, can be used to high order products, and because of the light-emitting efficiency higher, at the same LED chip using the number, current drivers for LED to be lower, will the power efficiency of notebook computer strive for further improvement.

Good crystal electric NB backlight products with LED permeability, expected in 2008 if the average permeability is 15%, in the present stage 2008 Q1 penetration rate of only 3%, expected by the end of 2008 the opportunity permeability increased to 20% ~ 25%, which makes the industry may have insufficient supply to the LED backlight LED chip, which is a boon to Taiwan LED upstream manufacturers, have the opportunity in the LED backlight supply chain plays a more important role.
