Manufacturing
Diode Dynamics has been producing circuit board assemblies (PCBAs), LED lighting, and power control accessories in the US for nearly 20 years. While we leverage these capabilities to support our flagship brand, we also proudly supply components and products to other well-known brands in the US and abroad.
Our in-house capabilities are designed to support the most critical processes for LED lighting, such as circuit board assembly, lamp assembly, quality, and testing. Meanwhile, we rely on a trusted network of component suppliers for commodities such as inject-molded plastics, die castings, and wire harnesses. By leveraging a robust network of domestic and global suppliers, we are able to bring complex electrical assemblies to market quickly, at competitive cost, and at the quality level needed to meet OEM automotive standards or the most demanding industrial and consumer applications.
Whether you need circuit boards (PCBAs), subassemblies, or complete LED lamps, we welcome the opportunity to become your US-based manufacturing partner. To get started, please Request a Quote.
