The Chip On Board or COB LED screen is a new addition to the LED Industry. These new LED screens use the latest flip COB chips to provide high-resolution images on LED screens. Though the COB LED display has only recently entered the market, it is already revolutionizing the LED Industry and changing how LED technology is used.

COB LED screens are LED displays where multiple LED chips are placed on top of one another and attached directly onto the substrate. These LED chips are fused to act as a single high-powered chip. Since the chips are placed directly on top of each other, they don’t take up much space in the LED screen.

There are many different advantages to using a flip-chip COB LED screen. Due to the placement of the chips, they light up as a single unit and provide better results than traditional LED screens. However, since these screens are new to the industry, many people are unaware of the power and benefit of COB LED technology. It is why we have put together this article that explains what COB LED screens are and how they have impacted the LED industry.

 

2. What Is The COB LED Screen?

 

The technical aspects of COB LED technology are pretty complicated. But briefly put, COB is a new way of packing LED chips in an LED light. Regular LED lights such as SMD or DIP have several separate light fixtures. When looked closely, the diodes of each light fixture can be seen in other forms of LED lights.

COB technology places several LED chips next to each other. The placement of chips gives a cleaner look similar to computer pixels next to one another.

Rather than having various LED bulbs, COB LED screens have LED chips. A typical COB LED board has three fragments of the standard RGB colors. Rather than being inserted as individual lights, the chips are placed next on an LED substrate and soldered into place. Since the LED chips are so close to one another, they produce better images on an LED panel.

To put this description of COB LED displays into perspective, let us think of this LED technology in the analogy of printers. Regular LED screens are like inkjet printers. After the image is produced, if you look closely, you can see all the tiny dots that have been placed next to each other to form the image.

COB LED screens are like laser printers. The pixels are so close to each other that it looks like one solid image rather than multiple dots joined together.

 

3. What Makes The COB LED Screen So Special?

 

Despite being new and still subject to advancements, various features make COB LED screens better than traditional LED screens. Here are a few benefits of using COB LED screens that you won’t get from conventional LED screens.

  • High Resolution

Unlike regular LED screens, COB screens do not use different light bulbs. Instead, LED chips are placed next to each other on the LED substrate and soldered in place. Since the LED chips are so close together, they look like a single LED panel rather than different small lights lighting up together to create an image.

In regular LED displays, the image can look pixelated. Each light is a separate entity that operates on varying levels. The lights in a regular LED are also further apart, which can reduce the sharpness of the image. The chips are connected to a single circuit in COB LED screens, making the lights more cohesive and the image sharper.

  • Less Glare

One significant disadvantage of most LED lights is the glare. COB LED technology improves this aspect of LED lighting by improving glare effects. Though some glare levels are still there in COB lights, it is not as outrageous or evident as regular LED screens. The anti-glare quality of COB lights has made them the best choice for indoor LED screens.

Since COB LED screens do not have much glare, they are easier to look at. It has made them suitable for indoor spaces to display vital information on LED screens. Most news reporting studios, movie studios, or malls use COB LED screens instead of traditional LED screens.

  • Compact

COB LED technology has also made LED screens less bulky and more compact. Regular LED screens to have different LED bulbs or diodes for each light. This arrangement can be protruding, which makes the overall framing and structure of the screen bulkier. COB LED does not have these issues, which means they can manufacture tiny screens.

In COB technology, the LED chips are flat. When they are placed on the LED substrate, they do not add much to the height or width of the LED structure. Since these chips are so close to each other, they do not need additional framing to hold the lights in place. Thus the overall design of the LED screen is slimmer and more compact than traditional LED screens.

  • Less Overheating and Energy Consumption

As mentioned earlier, COB LED lights do not produce as much glare as regular LED lights. Since less light is created, there is also not much heat produced. LED screens stay plugged in for a long time. Thus it is easy for LED screens to overheat. It can be dangerous in some situations and lead to accidents. COB LED screens generate less heat and reduce the chance of overheating.

Furthermore, since COB LED chips run on a single circuit and produce light with less glare, they also consume less energy. As the world has become more conscious about preserving electric power, COB lights are the future of the LED screen industry.

  • Long-Lasting

COB LED screens are also more resistant to dust and humidity. This resistance makes them more long-lasting compared to traditional LED screens. In ordinary LED screens, the lights are further apart. It is easy for dust and dirt to get between the lights and cause the screen to be damaged or malfunction.

In COB LED screens, the chips are placed closely next. Furthermore, since you solder the chips in place in COB LED screens, the chips have an additional layer of safety. This extra layer protects the lights from dust, humidity, water, or other forms of pollution. Due to the additional safety layer, these lights last longer and function well in all types of weather.

 

4. How The COB LED Screen Is Impacting the LED industry

 

The COB LED chip technology is impacting the LED industry in many ways. Since they are long-lasting, energy-saving, compact, and glare-free, you can use COB LED screens in many ways. COB LED screens have recently revolutionized indoor LED lighting in the film and tech industry.

LED lights have recently become a necessary item in the film industry. Big TV shows such as Disney Plus’s “The Mandalorian” filmed an entire season using large LED walls rather than green screens. The sharp and high definition quality of images of COB LED screens make them the best option for virtual reality LED film production.

Aside from the quality of images, the anti-glare aspect of COB LED walls makes them better for camera appearances. One of the biggest challenges of using LED walls in films is ‘reflected light.’ As COB technology improves, the anti-glare feature can revolutionize how movies and TV shows use LED walls.

Like the film industry, the tech industry has also benefitted from the anti-glare aspect of COB LED displays. Smartphones are for indoors and are subject to dirt and grime. COB LED lights are better than any other LED light for indoor use. Additionally, they are also resistant to different weather and dirt particles. This resistance makes them perfect for devices we use daily, such as computers, TVs, and phones.
