Light bars are s l i m Slimline light bars, 3.8 nun wide, that emit red, yellow or g r e e n light are being marketed by Siemens. They come in the form of single elements 19.5 nun long, or as double or quadruple elements 8.9 mm long. The 8.9 mm version operates with two LEDs, the 19.5 nun version with four LEDs. All versions are suitable for flush front-mounting and can be a r r a n g e d in rows as required. They are also compatible with integrated circuits and permit multiplex operation. The 'special slimline' light bar, measuring 3.8 x 19.5 nun, is d e s i g n e d for the implementation of line scales. A forward current of 20 mA produces a typical luminous intensity of 20 m c d (super-red, green) and 12 mcd (yellow). At 20 mA the double and quadruple elements 164
achieve typical values of 10 and 6 mud, respectively. The bars are located on the upper sides of plastic packages, uniform height 6.1 ram; the pins are 4 mm long. Siemens /~L,n/ted, S/emens House, WindmilI Road, Sunbury-on71mines, Middlesex TWI6 ~ , U K Tel: ( ~ ~ I , Teler ~ I ~ I []
