SinkPAD Technology
Is There a Better Way to Remove Heat?

SinkPAD technology is a thermal management
Printed Circuit Board (PCB) technology that makes it
possible to conduct heat out of a LED and into the
atmosphere faster and more efficiently than a
conventional MCPCB. SinkPAD provides superior
thermal performance for medium to high power LEDs.
This is the most economical & scalable "Direct Thermal
Path" MCPCB solution available for the LED
application.
What is SinkPAD Technology?

SinkPADTM TECHNOLOGY
 To understand how SinkPAD technology works let's
first review the primary thermal path found in LED
applications. In a LED the heat originates at the chip
(die) in the same way that in a normal light bulb heat
originates at the filament. The key difference is that
in the case of a light bulb the heat is radiated into the
atmosphere and in the case of a LED heat must be
conducted through a series of mediums before it
reaches the atmosphere. A high rate of thermal
conduction means cooler running LEDs while a low
rate means very hot and potentially self destructive
LEDs.
How SinkPAD Works?

 SinkPAD technology makes it possible to increase the
thermal conduction rate from the slug (i.e. thermal pad
within the LED package) to the metal base of a PCB from
the industry standards of 1 - 4 W/m.K to that of the metal
base itself which ranges between 135 W/m.K and 385
W/m.K. In essence SinkPAD PCB technology provides
Direct Thermal Path to the LED by eliminating dielectric
from the thermal path.
How SinkPAD Works?

SinkPADTM TECHNOLOGY

 SinkPAD PCB will Lower LED Junction Temperature
Which means :
1) Option to run LED at lower junction temperature
i.e. Increase Life of the LED Fixture
2) Option to run LED at higher power / maintain
temperature
i.e. Get more lumens per LED
3) Reduce number of LEDs to get same light
i.e. Reduces Fixture Cost
4) Higher drive currents, brighter light, fewer components
