Temperature in die
determines LED survival
determines operating life
determines light output
determines efficiency
Higher the temperature
lower the life
lower light output
lower the efficiency
Critical temperature much lower than conventional lamps
TH lamp pinch 350°C
LED internal temperatures 100°C to 150°C absolute maximum depends on
chip
A crude experiment!
An LED from the same batch left in freezer at -10°C overnight
Measured at fixed point from a light meter gave 10Lux
A few hours later when left running at room temperature 9Lux
Then put in oven for a couple of hours at 100°C 8lux
Not a particularly good match for the published data!
