RoodMicrotec is an independent, certified testlab for optoelectronics and microelectronics in the mid of Europe. Being active in the high-tech industrial market, RoodMicrotec's services for LEDs are:

• Selection of LEDs regarding colour and illumination intensity under room, high and low temperature (definition of XY-coordinate, dominant wavelength, peak wavelength, spectral curve)
• LED life tests: accellerated aging by electrical stress test under operating conditions; online monitoring for check of degradation (decline of light intensity, change in colour)
• Environmental tests (temperature and/or humidity, cyclic or constant); measurements prior and after tests concerning degradation
• UV tests: simulation of sunlight. Storage of LEDs under UV light, followed by check of illumination intensity and colour coordinates (degradation of the epoxy or silicon coating)
• Characteristics of radiation: definition of radiation angle and radiation behaviour (check of data sheet)
• Thermography pictures of LED assemblies: check of heat allocation and heat distribution (hot spot)
• Measurements regarding eye safety as well as definition of laser classes
• Risk analysis of new LED and package technologies

RoodMicrotec customers work in high-reliability markets like aerospace, medical technology, automotive and railway signals and general lighting.
