"Do not increase profits" is still a few degrees in the LED warming

[High-tech LED reporter Zhao Hui] On July 8, the results of the bidding for solar LED streetlights for the lighting project (equipment and installation) of the administrative villages in Shanxi Province were released, and 47 enterprises won the bid, with a total winning amount of 1.872 billion yuan.

This is by far the largest single-item LED public lighting renovation project in China, and the market has more expectations for the accelerated promotion of LED lighting.

In fact, since the beginning of the year, LED companies have experienced the phenomenon of overtime work. "This year's LED market is the best year. I believe there will be a very good blowout situation. At present, our order quantity is scheduled to be two months later." G20-LED Summit member company Qinshang Optoelectronics (002638.SZ) Zhu Bingzhong always told the "High-tech LED" reporter that this opportunity has not been encountered in the LED industry.

The release of downstream market demand has also been transmitted to the upper and middle reaches of the LED industry chain, and there has been a rare price increase in recent years. Since the beginning of this year, the price of 2-inch sapphire crystal sticks has been rising steadily, from 2.8 US dollars in the trough to 3.2 US dollars. The July quotation began to rise again to 4 US dollars (including tax), excluding tax price 3.6-3.7 US dollars.

According to statistics from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, LED production in the first five months of 2013 increased significantly by 46.7% compared with the same period of last year. In addition, various market data show that after the downturn, the LED market is returning to growth.

However, the semi-annual performance forecast of LED listed companies that have been intensively released recently shows that LED companies have not yet emerged from the strange circle of “increasing revenues without increasing profits”.

The 12 listed companies that have announced the semi-annual performance forecast in advance, only the long-party lighting (300301.SZ) in downstream lighting applications and the Ruifeng Optoelectronics (300241.SZ) and Jufei Optoelectronics (300303.SZ) net profit Compared with the year-on-year growth, the net profit of the remaining 8 LED listed companies showed a year-on-year decline.

“The company's overall operating income has grown rapidly, but due to the decline in product prices and the increase in operating expenses of the new park, the net profit in the first half of the year has declined year-on-year.” G20-LED Summit member company - Hongli Optoelectronics Deputy General Manager and Secretary-General Deng Shoutie Telling the reporter of "High-tech LED", the price of white light device, the main product of Hongli in the first half of the year, was nearly 30% lower than that of the same period of last year.

The price drop is too fast is one of the main reasons for these LED listed companies to reduce the net profit.

The staff of Huacan Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. said that the LED chip market has experienced a gradual price decline compared with the same period last year. Although the number of chip sales exceeded the same period last year, the gross profit still declined.

“Major interest rate has dropped too much, and most of the listed companies are not LED lighting companies. The market demand is mainly from indoor lighting, but this area is not the strength of existing LED listed companies, and the contribution is small.” Zhang Hongbiao, research director of the Industrial LED Industry Research Institute (GLII), believes that the large downstream demand does not mean that the gross profit margin will rise.

Another reason for the decline in profits is that since last year, various LED listed companies have expanded their production or relocated new campuses, and further increased the channel construction, resulting in a substantial increase in various fixed operating expenses and marketing expenses. .

Hongli Optoelectronics moved to the new industrial park office last year, and the Lehman Optoelectronics production base also moved to Huizhou.

Channel construction is also an aspect of LED companies investing more in the first half of the year. “At present, we have 150-180 distribution outlets, and we will add another 250 core distributors this year.” Liu Wei, director of Zhou Ming Technology and general manager of the lighting division, said that optimizing channel distributors is the current key task.

It is still reasonable for enterprises to expand their business scale, resulting in a decline in net profit. However, if the market does not really recover, it will cause greater difficulties for enterprises that frequently expand production.

Dr. Zhang Xiaofei, CEO of Gaogong LED, believes that the overall surplus of the entire LED industry in mainland China has not been fundamentally changed. From the extension, chip, package, downstream, there is a surplus of production capacity. Whether the market situation is really improving or not depends on the market trend in the third and fourth quarters of this year.

Especially in the first half of this year, LED lighting products have been actively promoted in the market, and most of them still belong to the stage of channel distribution. At present, it is impossible to judge the feedback of terminal owners and consumers on product quality. "When market circulation remains stable and quality is guaranteed, market demand can be considered to enter a stage of sustained growth." Dr. Zhang Xiaofei said frankly.

1.27mm (0.05") Pitch Pin Headers
Antenk offers a variety of high quality and competitively priced 1.27mm pitch single,dual, three and quad row pin (male) headers used in many board-to-board PCB connections, fitting small-sized, densely-packed devices.

This low-profile component is made from high-temperature thermoplastic and is offered with several means of connections and mounting styles such as through-hole (THM) or surface mount (SMT) and can be in vertical (straight), elevated or at a right angle configuration/orientation dissipating current of about 1.0 A or less.

The pin (male) header is generally mated with receptacle or stackable header connectors (female sockets). This types of pin headers are suitable for PCB board to board connection or for signal transmission application.


Applications of 1.27mm Pitch Pin Headers
Small equipment and devices can highly benefit from the small but robust stature of the 1.27mm pitch Pin Header as its material is tested for high-vibration and shock requirements of the automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics industries. This 1.27mm pitch pin header is widely used in diverse applications such as:
Medical Diagnostic and Monitoring equipment
Communications: Telecoms and Datacoms
Industrial and Automotive Control and Test
Retail and Point-Of-Sale equipment
Mil/Aero and Home Security
Solar applications
Weighing systems
Vehicle infotainment
Computer peripherals
Telecommunications
Heart monitors

Mount Type: 
Through-hole vs Surface Mount
1.27mm pitch pin (male) headers are offered in either Surface-mount or Through-hole mount termination. At one side of this pin header is a series of pins which can either be mounted and soldered directly onto the surface of the PCB (SMT) or placed into drilled holes on the PCB (THM).

Through-Hole (Poke-In)
Best used for high-reliability products that require stronger connections between layers.

Aerospace and military products are most likely to require this type of mounting as these products experience extreme accelerations, collisions, or high temperatures.
Useful in test and prototyping applications that sometimes require manual adjustments and replacements.
1.27mm vertical single row header, 1.27mm vertical dual row header, 1.27mm Elevated single row pin header, 1.27mm Elevated dual row pin Header, 1.27mm Right-angle single row header and 1.27mm Right-angle dual row header are some
examples of Antenk products with through-hole mount type.

Surface-Mount
The most common electronic hardware requirements are SMT.
Essential in PCB design and manufacturing, having improved the quality and performance of PCBs overall.
Cost of processing and handling is reduced.
SMT components can be mounted on both side of the board.
Ability to fit a high number of small components on a PCB has allowed for much denser, higher performing, and smaller PCBs.
1.27mm Right-angle Dual Row pin header, 1.27mm SMT Single row pin header, 1.27mm SMT Dual row pin header and 1.27mm Elevated Dual Row Pin Header are Antenk`s SMT pin headers.
Soldering Temperature for 1.27mm Pitch Pin Headers
Soldering SMT pin connectors can be done at a maximum peak temperature of 260°C for maximum 60 seconds.


Pin-Type: 
Vertical (Straight) and Right-Angle
1.27mm pitch headers may be further classified into pin orientation as well, such as vertical or straight Male Header or right-angle male header.

Vertical or Straight Pin (Male) Header Orientation
One side of the series of pins is connected to PCB board in which the pins can be at a right-angle to the PCB surface (usually called "straight" or [vertical") or..

Right-Angle Pin (Male) Header Orientation
Parallel to the board's surface (referred to as "right-angle" pins).
Each of these pin-types have different applications that fit with their specific configuration.

Pcb Connector Stacking
Elevated Pin Header Orientation
Elevated pins aka Stacked Pins or Mezzanine are simply stacked pin headers providing an exact distance requirement between PCBs that optimizes electrical reliability and performance between PCB boards.

Profile Above PCB
This type of configuration is the most common way of connecting board-to-board by a connector. First, the stacking height is calculated from one board to another and measured from the printed circuit board face to its highest insulator point above the PCB.

Single, Dual or Multiple Number of Rows
For a 1.27mm straight or vertical Male Pin Header, the standard number of rows that Scondar offers ranges from 1 to 2 rows. However, customization can be available if 3, 4 or n number of rows is needed by the customer. Also, the number of contacts for the single row is about 2-50 pins while for dual row, the number contacts may vary from 4-100 pins.

Pin Material
The pins of the connector have been designed with copper alloy. With customer`s demand the pins can be made gold plated.

Breakaway design
The pin headers are also equipped with a breakaway design making them fully compatible with their female receptacles.

Custom 1.27mm Pitch Pin Headers
Customizable 1.27 mm pitch pin headers are also available, making your manufacturing process way faster as the pins are already inserted in the headers, insulator height is made at the right size and the accurate pin length you require is followed.
Parts are made using semi-automated manufacturing processes that ensure both precision and delicacy in handling the headers before packaging on tape and reel.

Tape and Reel Packaging for SMT Components
Antenk's SMT headers are offered with customizable mating pin lengths, in which each series has multiple numbers of circuits, summing up to a thousand individual part number combinations per connector series.
The tape and reel carrier strip ensures that the headers are packaged within accurately sized cavities for its height, width and depth, securing the headers from the environment and maintaining consistent position during transportation.
Antenk also offers a range of custom Tape and reel carrier strip packaging cavities.
