Cree adds RGB surface-mount LEDs for color directional signage

Cree has announced the CV94D-FCC LED that integrates three emitters in a compact surface-mount device (SMD) package.

The package includes tightly packed red, green, and blue (RGB) emitters enabling full-color signs or displays based on solid-state lighting (SSL) technology.

Cree identified the target application as intelligent transportation systems, with a primary example being dynamically changeable signs that are increasingly being suspended above freeways.
