Light-emitting diode/Full name

What LED lights mean?

LED stands for light emitting diode. LED lighting products produce light up to 90% more efficiently than incandescent light bulbs. How do they work? An electrical current passes through a microchip, which illuminates the tiny light sources we call LEDs and the result is visible light.

What does LED stand for in a TV?

LED stands for light-emitting diode, and these make up the backlights of some TVs. The LEDs either sit behind the screen (this is called full array) or at the edge of the screen (known as edge-lit).
