Philips Lumileds estimates that high-power LED production capacity will exceed 1 billion in 2011

The LED lighting market has entered a fierce competition, not only in terms of production capacity and technology, but also with the development trend of technology improvement and cost reduction, the price/performance ratio (lm/$) can be purchased for every dollar, and it has become an important driving force for the LED lighting market. . After the global LED manufacturer Philips Lumileds announced the official launch of 6-inch wafer production at the end of 2010, it is estimated that the high-power LED production capacity will exceed 1 billion in 2011, and it is expected to reach the cold white light of 200lm/$ at the end of the year, and the industry is ahead of 2013. Reached 500lm/$.

Since Lumileds was purchased by Philips in 2005, it has been actively promoting the production capacity and technology level of high-power LED products since 2007. Luxeon, a high-power product, accounts for about 80% of LED products, with lighting, camera flash and automotive lighting. The main application, in which the market share of smart phone flash has exceeded 50%, and into the Apple iPhone4, Nokia Siemens, HTC and other major supply chain, 2007 is also the first to introduce high-power LED into the car headlights The industry, and LED lighting is also seen as the driving force for growth in the future.

Frank Harder, vice president of Lumileds Luxeon production line, said that the high-power product Luxeon was officially released in 2001 to improve lm/W luminous efficiency and acquisition cost lm/$. According to Lumileds development goal, the current cool white LED luminous efficiency is about 125lm/ W, is expected to reach 135lm / W in May 2011, 145 ~ 160lm / W in November, warm white light will reach 110 ~ 120lm / W; as for lm / $ will also be from the current cool white LED 160lm / $ It was upgraded to 180lm/$ in May 2011 and entered the 200lm/$ level in November, when the warm white light will reach 150lm/$.


Compared with the expected goal announced by the US Department of Energy (DOE) Energy Star, I hope the industry will achieve 500lm/$ performance in 2015. Frank is confident that Lumileds will definitely reach ahead of schedule and expects to increase the price/performance ratio to 500lm/ in 2013. $, As for the US Department of Energy, the industry expects the industry to reach 1,000 lm / $ in 2020, Lumileds' goal is more positive, and is expected to lead the industry to 2,000 lm / $ in 2020.


As the LED lighting market enters the high-speed growth period, how to quickly close the purchase cost and the existing light source price gap, and gradually become the key to the competitiveness of the LED factory in the lighting market. Li Bingjie, chairman of Jingdian, once pointed out that he hopes that Jingdian will become the world's largest LED lighting source in 2013. The primary goal is to reach lm/$ early to meet customer demand standards. According to the internal expectations of Jingdian, it will reach in 2011. At 250lm/$, the LED lighting market penetration rate can be increased to 5%, and in 2012, the market will reach the target of 500lm/$. At that time, the market penetration rate is expected to grow to 10%, and will increase to 1,000lm/$ in 2015. LED lighting market penetration rate reached 25%, and Jingdian will take the lead in the industry for 3 to 5 years of cost gap, and aggressively attack LED lighting business opportunities.


Lumileds announced that it will become the world's first mass-produced 6-inch wafer chip maker in December 2010 and achieve a million-week production per week on large-scale machines. It is noted that Lumileds is still using 3-inch MOCVD machines. Mainly, about 100 units or less, it is expected that the 6-inch machine will be gradually introduced after March 2011. Since the 6-inch equivalent is 3 to 4 times the capacity of the 3-inch machine, it can be cut into 3,000 LEDs with 3-inch wafers. Compared with the chip, a 6-inch LED chip will produce 9,000 to 10,000 LED chips.


Lumileds pointed out that due to the rapid increase in high-power LED production capacity in recent years, as of 2010, the first precedent became the first LED manufacturer with a total shipment of 1 billion high-power LEDs, but the capacity of the 6-inch machine was a big shot. Under the leaps and bounds of “10 years of skill and overnight achievement”, it is estimated that the production capacity in 2011 will exceed 1 billion.
