How to Design a High-Efficiency Custom UVC LED Module: A Step-by-Step Guide

Feb 28, 2026 u-vcare

The demand for UVC LED sterilization is skyrocketing, but a "one-size-fits-all" approach rarely works for complex industrial or consumer applications. To achieve 99.9% disinfection, you need a module tailored to your specific environment. Here is how we approach customized UVC LED solutions at U-Vcare.

1. Defining the Target Wavelength

While 254nm was the standard for mercury lamps, UVC LEDs peak most effectively between 265nm and 275nm for pathogen DNA/RNA destruction. Depending on your target (water, air, or surface), we help you select the precise nanometer range.

2. Optical Layout and Irradiance

How many LEDs do you need? It’s not just about quantity; it’s about the beam angle (usually 120°) and uniform distribution. We use optical simulation to ensure there are no "shadow areas" in your disinfection chamber.

3. PCBA and Driver Design

A custom PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly) is the heart of the module. We design boards that manage voltage drops efficiently and allow for smart features like PWM dimming or sensor feedback.

4. Thermal Management

UVC LEDs convert a significant portion of energy into heat. Without a custom heat sink or aluminum/ceramic PCB, the lifespan will drop drastically.
