Cree expands Architectural Lighting LED range

News

CLQ6A is first individually addressable one-watt RGBW LED in its class

Cree has expanded its family of Architectural Lighting Class LEDs with the new CLQ6A RGBW (red, green, blue and white) LED.

The first individually addressable one-watt RGBW LED in its class, the CLQ6A LED unlocks new designs that were previously not possible. The four-in-one LED provides a single point source for excellent optical control, efficient colour mixing and simplified design, enabling lighting manufacturers to offer beautiful and differentiated architectural lighting.

"Architectural lighting is one of the most challenging applications because of the scale, visibility and complexity of the installations. This is why we trust our brand with Cree® LEDs"

"Architectural lighting is one of the most challenging applications because of the scale, visibility and complexity of the installations. This is why we trust our brand with Cree LEDs," said Li Yong Tao, R&D Director at Grand Canyon LED Lighting Systems. "Cree LEDs deliver superior luminous flux output, rich colour options and excellent colour consistency that are perfect for architectural lighting. Cree's high reliability enables us to offer products that perform well even in harsh outdoor conditions."

Delivering 8.2 lumens for Blue, 30 lumens for Green, 14 lumens for Red and 25 lumens for White at 100 mA in a 5 x 5.2 mm package, the CLQ6A LED improves brightness by seven times over similar 4:1 LEDs that have not been optimised for architectural lighting. Cree is also extending its CLX6F family with a PC Amber option that delivers 23 lumens at 105 mA in a 3.4 mm x 3.5 mm package. These new LEDs provide unique design options and expand Cree's portfolio of LEDs for architectural lighting, which includes the high-power XLamp® XQ-A, XQ-E, XP-E2 and XM-L Colour LEDs.

"Cree continues to develop new application-optimised LEDs that provide our customers with the best options to meet their design requirements," said Dave Emerson, Cree LEDs senior vice president and general manager. "Previously, lighting manufacturers only had high and low power LEDs to choose from for these colour options. With the new CLQ6A and CLX6F LEDs, we are expanding the industry's best portfolio of LEDs for architectural lighting with the light output and reliability innovations expected from Cree to fill the performance gap in the market and meet customers' needs."
