LEDs use convex lens to concentrate light
The 5379K Series of LEDs use a convex diffused lens instead of a
surface-diffused rectangular lens to concentrate the light. For the 2.5 x
5-mm LED, the company claims a light output increase of 8 to 10 times
using the convex lens over conventional, same-size LEDs. Available colors
are red, green, yellow, and orange, with packages including folded tape or
tape-and-reel for automatic insertion. ($0.115 ea/10,000–stock to 4 weeks
