What does 5050 SMD mean?

What does 5050 SMD mean?

SMD stands for surface-mounted-device. In this case our device is an LED. 5050 stands for 5.0 mm by 5.0 mm. 3528 stands for 3.5 mm by 2.8 mm. That’s all you can be certain of, those two phrases are merely indications of size of LED components. This has nothing to do with any of the following specifications of the LED: color.

Which led is better 5050 or 3528?

5050 LED Strips are brighter than 3528 and one can get 5050 LED strips in either single colour or multiple colours (what is known as RGB ). What is also important is how many LED chips are used per metre because this effects the brightness.

How many lumen in a 5050 led?

A 5050 LED diode will illuminate brightness equivalent to approximately 18 Lumen A 5630 (5730) LED diode will illuminate brightness equivalent to approximately 50 Lumen The same goes for each chip’s power consumption, a 3528 LED will consume approximately 0.06 Watt, while a 5050 LED will consume approximately 0.18 Watt of power and a 5630 (5730) consumes about 0.5 Watt.

How many lumens is a 5050 led?

On SMD LED lights, lumens are simply calculated per chip. Larger 5050 SMD LED chips are rated at 15 lumens per chip. Our most common 5050 bulb uses 24 chips, so its calculated lumen output is 360 lumens (15 x 24 = 360 lumens).
