Bridgelux and Molex innovate cooperation

Molex and Bridgelux Partner to Develop the Industry's Most Cost-Efficient, Interchangeable, Scalable Solid State Lighting Solution

Marketwire, March 24, 2010, Livermore, Calif., and Lyle, Illinois -

Bridgelux and Molex Incorporated (NASDAQ: MOLX) (NASDAQ: MOLXA) today unveiled the first LED lighting solution designed and priced for fast mass market applications of LED lighting technology. The new Helieon sustainable lighting module combines Bridgelux's industry-leading solid-state lighting technology with Molex's innovative and easy-to-use interconnect technology to provide easy installation, replacement and upgradeability for indoor and outdoor lighting manufacturers. Helieon's volume is priced at less than $20* and has a lifespan of more than 10 years**, making it one of the industry's highest quality, most cost-effective solid-state lighting solutions that will change the way LED lighting solutions are used. Helieon also helps lighting manufacturers reduce energy costs and environmental waste to achieve a sustainable lighting environment.

Bridgelux CEO William Watkins said: Helieon will soon unveil the mystery that solid-state lighting cannot be applied on a large scale. Helieon will drive the development of solid state lighting with a price that delivers large-scale applications, high-quality light sources, and a simple and familiar installation experience. With Helieon, solid-state lighting will replace traditional incandescent, fluorescent and other technologies in many large-scale general lighting applications, creating a $100 billion market opportunity. Bridgelux and Molex have jointly created a new large-scale market segment for solid-state lighting.

Bridgelux and Molex innovate cooperation

Both Bridgelux and Molex are leaders in their respective industries, and the two companies have jointly developed state-of-the-art, low-cost solid-state lighting modules that are all made up of recyclable components. Helieon combines Bridgelux's LED array products with Molex's interconnect technology to develop a plug-and-play solution that can be easily integrated into a wide range of lighting applications. The detachable light source and outlet system emulates traditional light bulbs and sockets, enabling manufacturers to achieve a variety of different lighting effects with the same lighting design. The original product can provide 500K warm white light or 4100K neutral white light from 500 to 1500 lumens. With precision optical components, it can provide three kinds of flooding angles: narrow, medium and wide. The products are designed to be simple, adaptable, efficient, and competitively priced. Manufacturers of lighting and lighting equipment will have unparalleled flexibility and opportunities in design and marketing.

The Bridgelux array used in Helieon's sustainable lighting modules can be used in small, high-throughput, dense-density light sources with brightness levels of 500 to 1500 lumens (equivalent to 40 to 74 watts of incandescent bulbs). These integrated solutions provide high quality non-lattice illumination with similar beam quality to traditional sources. Bridgelux's patented technology delivers industry-leading heat resistance, high brightness and uniform color. Helieon combines the Bridgelux LED array with precision beam control components to further simplify the lighting design process for high-quality lighting.

Molex Interconnect technology provides an extremely simple and familiar installation experience that simplifies design and enables lighting designers, end-users, and consumers to upgrade, interchange, and replace modules to change and control the environment as they wish. Molex's patented design is an industry leader in defining and promoting interconnect standards for a wide range of luminaires.

Mike Picini, vice president of solid-state lighting at MolexIncorporated, said: Helieon reflects Bridgelux's and Molex's commitment to product development and manufacturing to meet specific lighting applications and market demands, thereby breaking the limits of LED lighting. Flexible, high-quality, plug-and-play and cost-effective solid-state lighting solutions like Helieon will simplify and support integration with LEDs for OEM luminaire manufacturers and key players during the lighting industry transition.

Product availability

Helieon will be available in May. The product is warranted for three years and its performance enables lighting equipment to meet EnergyStar, Title24, PartL and other global regulatory standards. Helieon is RoHS compliant and is currently actively applying for UL certification to further simplify the design and user acceptance process.
