OMC unveils a rainbow of next-generation LED backlight
OMC, the pioneer in optoelectronics, announces it has developed a new technology that enables a whole rainbow of new LED backlight colours to be produced, including magentas and blue-greens. Previously the only way to achieve non-standard LED colours was to use RGB colour mixing, which involves three times as many chips, complex wiring and requires drive circuitry to control the relative channel levels. OMC’s new series of profiled backlights with Active Reflector Technology™ produces a striking range of vivid, next-generation LED backlight colours, and gives designers far greater creative choice and flexibility.
OMC’s proprietary Active Reflector Technology™ utilises photon wavelength upconversion to produce a wide range of rich colours and pastel shades. OMC’s new ART series backlights are available in crimson red, rose pink, a strong red-orange, bright orange, amber yellow, pastel yellow, high brightness yellow/green, vivid green, deep green, electric green-blue, a classic rich LED blue and a strong, bright shade of magenta. ART series backlights use only one wavelength of emitter per backlight, so there is no requirement to mix multiple LED wavelengths, reducing design complexity and lowering costs.
As a specialist manufacturer of LED backlights, OMC can produce bespoke shapes, sizes and colours as standard, with no set-up costs for most designs and very low minimum order quantities. Designers can have samples in as little as a few days. Next generation ART LED backlights suit multiple applications, including illuminating liquid crystal displays, logos, badges, signs and many more.

New LinkSwitch-TN2 Switcher ICs from Power Integrations
deliver high accuracy in non-isolated off-line applications Rugged off-line buck switcher IC survives wide fluctuations in mains supply
Power Integrations (Nasdaq: POWI), the leader in high-voltage integrated circuits for energy-efficient power conversion, today introduced its LinkSwitch™-TN2 off-line switcher IC for non- isolated applications with up to 360 mA output current. The new device, which may be configured as a buck, buck-boost or a non-isolated flyback converter, delivers high accuracy, high efficiency and excellent no-load performance. The device incorporates new safety features including input and output over-voltage protection and a rugged MOSFET with a 725 V breakdown voltage, offering robust output short-circuit and over-temperature protection against line surges and swells. Applications include appliances, HVAC, industrial, home
automation (IOT) and metering systems, particularly those destined for India and other geographies with challenging power grid stability.
LinkSwitch-TN2 ICs feature voltage regulation of better than -/+ 3%. This high level of accuracy allows designers to eliminate post regulators, minimizing the BOM, increasing efficiency and reducing size. The new IC requires just 20 additional components to complete a buck converter, and may be configured to use off-the-shelf inductors, further reducing cost and supply chain complexity.
LinkSwitch-TN2 ICs come in three different packages: PDIP-8C, SO-8C, and SMD-8C. Devices are available now, priced at $0.60 in 10,000-piece quantities. Information including reference designs is available from the Power Integrations website at
