SMD LED lights are very small and compact. They are manufactured by using semiconductor technology and can accommodate intricate designs. The chips are mounted on a printed circuit board using soldering technology known as SMT. The technology allows for the soldering of LEDs on both sides of the board, reducing the amount of working time. The different types of SMD LEDs are identified by a series of numbers, each of which corresponds to the chip's size in millimetres.

SMD LED lights are extremely durable, able to last for years, and are environmentally friendly. Their reduced size makes them easy to install. They also have very low energy consumption, consuming between two and 3.5 volts. A typical SMD LED has a lifespan of over 50,000 hours, making them a great choice for lighting applications. They also feature a uniform luminescence and no spots.

The main difference between SMD and COB LEDs lies in their technology. In contrast to COB LEDs, SMD LEDs are soldered directly onto the circuit board. As a result, they are much smaller and feature no outer packaging. In addition to their smaller size, SMD LEDs also produce less heat and require less energy and voltage. The advantage of SMD LEDs over other types of LEDs is their low energy requirement and wide viewing angle.

Another difference between SMD and COB LEDs is cost. SMD LEDs are generally more expensive than COB LEDs. However, they are also more durable. In addition, LED lights are generally more efficient than other sources of light.
