Dual In-Line Package (DIP) chips were used in some of the first general illumination LEDs. The chip is encased in hard plastic with 2 straight parallel connecting pins. The epoxy covering focuses the light produced to a beam angle of approximately 60˚ or 45˚. Although DIP chips are still used today, they have a much lower efficiency than the newer LED chips. Delivering approximately 4 lumens per LED, they individually pull between 0.05 and 0.08 watts to generate between 35 and 80 lumens per watt. DIP have suffered from inherent heat management problems

Component used to power and control LED lights, converting high-voltage AC current to low-voltage DC power.

LED chip encased in a hard plastic with 2 straight, parallel connecting pins. Epoxy covering focuses produced light. DIP chips were used in some of the earliest general illumination LEDs, though they suffer from inherent heat management problems.
