LED lighting standards, the more urgent needs

In 2011, as the market's development expanded, the industry's demand for standards became more urgent.

Regardless of whether it is international or domestic, the standard system construction of semiconductor lighting has been improving year by year. The content of standards development is gradually enriched. The optical bio-safety, safety standards, performance standards, and specification interface standards of semiconductor lighting products have become international and domestic standards. Concerns, such as the IEC's WG9 working group, will develop a series of IEC 62471 standards for optical radiation, photobiosecurity.

In terms of the development of domestic semiconductor lighting standards, 2011 has seen many attacks and a full bloom. For example, in September 2011, a new batch of national standards for the establishment of the National Standards Committee, there are 24 items related to semiconductor lighting products, involving epitaxial chips, packaging and lighting applications in all aspects. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has also issued nine industry standards. As an important driving force for the development of the domestic semiconductor lighting industry, the National Semiconductor Lighting Research and Development and Industry Alliance (CSA) has continuously introduced technical specifications based on industrial development, and the first batch of semiconductor lighting joint innovation institutes established by the alliance has been launched. Two of the projects involved the standardization of semiconductor lighting. Under the coordination of the national semiconductor lighting engineering R&D and industrial alliance, the two sides of the Taiwan Straits have carried out a lot of work in the area of ​​semiconductor lighting-related standardization, and local standards are being developed everywhere... However, industry insiders also pointed out that The standards on LED lighting products that have been released mainly relate to the terminology, definitions, and safety requirements of the products. There are few standards concerning product performance requirements and system integration. There is still a long way to go in the formulation of domestic standards.

It is worth noting that the National Development and Reform Commission and other six national ministries and commissions have established the National Semiconductor Lighting Standards Leading Group and Expert Group, hoping to coordinate the work of different departments and different industrial sectors and jointly promote the related work of semiconductor lighting standardization. The upcoming 2012 will be foreshadowed, and the progress in the development of domestic standards will be possible.
