Lumileds Creates High Flux LED for General Lighting
New mid power two-die Luxeon LED delivers over 200 lm when driven at 24 mA and 6V
Lumileds has introduced a new addition to its mid power family, the new Luxeon 3030 2D with a square LES, which is specifically optimised for high flux and maximum reliability in a variety of general lighting applications including downlights, high bay & low bay fixtures and outdoor lighting applications.
"With the new Luxeon 3030 2D, we are able to offer the industry's highest flux in a two-die mid power package, but also our hot-colour targeted approach ensures superior colour accuracy to that of other LED manufacturers," said Mei Yi, product manager of Luxeon 3030 2D for Lumileds.
With hot-colour targeting, components deliver specific chromaticity coordinates at the targeted operating temperature of 85degC. This strategy results in minimal colour shift in real-world operating conditions. Both LM-80 and TM-21 data are available for the new LED.
The Luxeon 3030 2D uses two emitters in series to deliver over 110 lm at a warm white colour temperature of 2700K and 80 CRI (120 mA, 6V). At a cool colour temperature of 6500K, the performance increases to over 120 lm at 80 CRI (max drive of 240 mA). Offered over the full range of ANSI CCTs, the emitter is 1/9th ANSI micro-colour binned for tight colour control.
Flux performance is significantly improved over the company's existing Luxeon 3030 2D LED which has a round LES. Existing customers will still have access to the Luxeon 3030 2D with the round LES, which enjoys widespread adoption, especially for downlight, industrial and A lamp applications.
