  • Recommended Pick and Place Tools for Leds from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors
    www.osram.com/os Application Note No. AN037 Recommended pick and place tools for LEDs from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors Application Note Valid for: all SMT LEDs from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors Abstract OSRAM Opto Semiconductors SMT devices are developed for assembly by automatic placement machines. To achieve a damage-free processing of LEDs, appropriate and individual pick and place tools (the nozzles) must be used. The following pages provide information about important parameters that should be considered for LED assembly. Furthermore a recommended nozzle design for each LED in the OSRAM Opto Semiconductors portfolio is given. Authors: Retsch Stefanie / Lang Kurt-Jürgen 2021-06-22 | Document No.: AN037 1 / 21 www.osram.com/os Table of contents A.Pick-and-place process .......................................................................................... 2 B.Overview of recommended nozzle designs ............................................................ 2 A. Pick-and-place process As is the standard for SMT devices, all SMT LEDs from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors are designed for an automated pick and place process. To receive optimal process results, it is necessary to set the pick and place machine properly. In the initial production run, it must be ensured that the LED package can be grabbed by the nozzle and sucked out of the tape pocket. Therefore, an appropriate nozzle (pipette or pick-up tool) has to be used. This application note gives an overview on the recommended nozzles and the dimensions. An appropriate nozzle not only ensures a good pick and place process, it also helps to prevent damage to the LED. To avoid any damage during the pick-up process, the pick-up position should be controlled and adjusted during the set-up.

No. 4530-VCS SHAREHOLDERS LITIGATION : VERIFIED CONSOLIDATED CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT Plaintiffs Philadelphia Public Employees Retirement System (“Philadelphia PERS”), The General Retirement System of the City of Detroit (“Detroit General”), The Police and Fire Retirement System of the City of Detroit (“Detroit P&F”), the City of Ann Arbor Employees’ Retirement System (“Ann Arbor”) and Beverly Rosman (“Rosman,” and collectively with Philadelphia PERS, Detroit General, Detroit P&F and Ann Arbor, “Plaintiffs”), by and through their undersigned counsel, upon knowledge as to themselves and upon information and belief as to all other matters, allege as follows: NATURE OF THE ACTION 1. Plaintiffs are holders of common stock of PepsiAmericas, Inc. (“PAS” or the “Company”). Plaintiffs bring this action individually and as a class action on behalf of all holders of PAS common stock other than the defendants and their affiliates. Plaintiffs seek injunctive and other equitable relief in connection with the proposal of PepsiCo, Inc. (“PepsiCo”) to acquire all of the PAS’ outstanding shares that PepsiCo does not already own for a combination of cash and stock valuing PAS at $23.27 per share (the “Proposed Merger”). 2. PepsiCo simultaneously offered to acquire Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc. (“PBG” and with PAS, the “Companies”) at $29.50 per share, and has made consummation of a merger with either bottler contingent on consummating a merger with the other. PepsiCo’s offers are timed and structured to favor PepsiCo and promise a paltry 17.1 percent premium over the closing prices of the Companies’ stock on April 17, 2009, the last trading day prior to PepsiCo’s announcement of the Proposed Merger.

    GPLA booklet 04 new 9/28/04 6:59 PM Page 37 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency • U.S. Department of Energy • Center for Resource Solutions 2007 Green Power Leadership Awards The 2007 Green Power Leadership Awards are hosted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the United States Department of Energy (DOE), and the Center for Resource Solutions (CRS). EPA and DOE recognize leading green power purchasers and green power suppliers respectively. CRS recognizes leading organizations and individuals building the market for green power. The Green Power Leadership Awards for purchasers is a recognition program of the EPA Green Power Partnership, a voluntary program working to reduce the environmental impact of electricity use by fostering development of the voluntary green power market. The Partnership provides technical assistance and public recognition to organizations that commit to using green power for a portion of their electricity needs. Partners in the program include Fortune 500 companies, states, federal agencies, universities, and leading organizations around the country that have made a commitment to green power. For the 2007 green power supplier and purchaser awards, two panels of judges reviewed nearly 100 nominations through a national competitive review process. Purchasers were evaluated based upon the size and characteristics of their green power commitment, ingenuity used to overcome barriers, internal and external communication efforts, and overall renewable energy strategy. Recognition of these companies falls into three categories: On-site Generation, Green Power Purchasing, and Green Power Partner of the Year. Suppliers were evaluated based on the following criteria: technologies utilized, total sales, evidence of annual audit to verify procurement and sales, amount of green power supplied, and number of customers served.
