● Acriche Octagonal 2W Single Emitter,

      Upgraded Design Increases Efficacy by 20% to 48 lm/W

        - Semiconductor light source that operates directly from AC power without converters

● March 6, 2007 - SSC released the Acriche 2W single emitter. The luminous efficacy increases by 20% from prior
     versions to 48 lumens per watt. At 48 Lumens per Watt the new Acriche is comparable with conventional LEDs
     systems where the bulb achieves 57 lumens per watt but loses 20% in the AC/DC converter.

● SSC plans to increase Acriche’s luminous efficacy to 80 lm/W in the fourth quarter of 2007, and to 120 lm/W in 2008.

● A Great Success, Technical Seminar about the Next Generation LED Lighting

March 6, 2007, Korea – SSC successfully held its 1st technical seminar for the next generation LED lighting in Korea. More than 100 participants included CEOs, designers, and engineers of lighting, architectural, and signage industries, officials, and journalists.

Different countries of the world are rapidly moving to replace conventional lighting with LED based solid state lighting. The driving forces of this change array from environmental pollution controls, rising oil prices, electrical efficiency, reduced maintenance costs, and demands for no mercury or lead.

SSC, a world leading LED manufacturer held the technical seminar to contribute to the improvement of lighting, architectural, signage and all other industries,which need LED lighting, and to energy saving and environmental protection in the world.

The seminar incorporates introduction of SSC, understanding of lighting, lighting source, LEDs, thermal properties of LED packages and chips, electrical properties and operating principal of LEDs, optics, and smiconductor light source, Acriche.

According to the results of the conducted survey of participants, the explanation of SSC's semiconductor light souce, Acriche was the most satisfying.
Over 80% of the participants said that it was hepful to understand LED lighting and they would participate in the future seminar again. Thus, the seminar had a wide appeal, and SSC will also hold the seminar abroad when there are upsurging requests.
