Chip On Board (COB) LED Industry Developments


In March 2024, Two brand-new chip-on-board LED lights have been introduced by Zhiyun, which bring the adaptability of lighting to a whole new level. Zhiyun has now unveiled two COB lights that are tiny enough to fit in your pocket, making them an excellent choice for those who are looking for a lighting kit that is both adaptable and compact.


Both photographers and videographers who need a minimum lighting plan will find the new Zhiyun Molus X60 and X60-RGB portable COB lights to be a great choice. As a result of its often modest size but consistent and considerable brightness, COB lighting has emerged as a popular choice among videographers and content makers. The new X60 variants are only a fraction bigger than a credit card and have a power output of 60W. 


COB is an abbreviation that stands for "chip on board," which indicates that the LED chips, which are often stacked, are in direct contact with the substrate and the circuit board if they are bare. In addition to providing advantages such as a more rapid cooling process, increased energy efficiency, increased brightness, and a more compact design, this makes it possible to distribute light evenly over a vast area.


With dimensions of 100 x 71 x 56 mm and a weight of just 313 grammes (or 319 grammes for the X60-RGB), the Zhiyun Molus X60 and X60-RGB take advantage of this last advantage. These lights are created from a sturdy all-metal design that is not only sleek and contemporary but also lightweight, despite the fact that they weigh very little.


Depending on how you want to use the product, the two alternative model choices each provide something somewhat different. 'flicker-free dual color temperatures (2700K-6500K) and excellent color rendering accuracy (CRI≥95, TLCI≥97)' are features that are offered by the conventional X60. On the other hand, the X60-RGB provides pure white light and brilliant colored light that can be precisely adjusted throughout the RGB spectrum.


In May 2021, Cree, Inc. announced the addition of new CMT LEDs to the XLamp High Current LED Array family, extending Cree's latest metal-based chip-on-board (COB) LED technology to the most common COB form factors.


In December 2020, Nichia Corporation, a renowned LED lighting maker, has announced a collaboration with Infineon Technologies, a semiconductor manufacturer. The collaboration sought to create high-quality LED drivers for automotive lighting applications by leveraging Infineon's expertise in semiconductor technology.


In January 2019, Lumileds, a prominent LED lighting product maker, announced the growth of its COB LED production capacity. The expansion was designed to address the increased demand for COB LEDs in a variety of applications such as general lighting, automotive lighting, and speciality lighting.
