Würth Elektronik has introduced a new addition to its WL-SFTD SMT full-color top-view LED series, bringing enhanced performance and versatility to advanced lighting and display systems. The new 2828 package — compact at just 2.8 × 2.8 mm — features a dome lens with a finely tuned 70-degree emission angle, engineered for precise, even light distribution with minimal glare.
Designed for demanding environments, the LEDs come with an IPx8 water protection rating, making them suitable for outdoor and weather-exposed installations such as bus destination signs, transit hub displays, pathway lighting, and architectural integrations. The matte black housing boosts visual clarity in digital signage applications, delivering up to 25% higher contrast than conventional white PLCC housings — a key feature for high-definition video walls and dynamic transport displays.
The improved emission angle ensures up to 20% more even light distribution compared to traditional packages, optimizing visibility and color uniformity across wider viewing angles — ideal for moving signage, fleet branding, and interactive passenger information systems.
For OEMs, lighting engineers, and product developers, Würth Elektronik offers the new LEDs direct from stock, with no minimum order quantity, and free samples to accelerate prototyping and testing.
Würth Elektronik continues to build on its reputation for robust, high-performance electronic components — delivering flexible, energy-efficient lighting solutions for a wide range of B2B sectors, including public transport, smart cities, audio systems, and industrial electronics.
