New TE Connectivity product: Z50 LED Holder Extensions

The TE Solderless LED Holder, Type Z50, is a circular LED holder family that is now extended to provide a solderless connection to the Philips Lumileds LUXEON® CoB LED array family (20x24), CITIZEN Electronics CLL030/032 and SAMSUNG LC026B/LC040B LEDs. These LED holders form the core of electrical, mechanical, thermal and optical connectivity.

Product Features

• Snap-in LED retention feature simplifies installation by securing the LED to the holder before mounting
• Poke-in wire connection reduces installation time by eliminating the need for soldering to the LED
• Enables constant thermal down force to minimize influence by thermal plastic deformation at high temperature
• Built-in excess paste overflow feature allows for an easy and clean thermal paste application
