Lighting-Class LEDs Only Need A 3.45-mm2 Footprint August 11, 2008
Cree claims its Xlamp XP-E and XP-C have the smallest footprint in the industry for lighting-class LEDs—an 80-percent smaller package than the company’s XR-E and XR-C LEDs. The new XLamp LEDs measure 3.45 mm square by 2 mm high. They support applications such as backlighting; signage; and outdoor, indoor, and portable lighting thanks to their small size, low profile, wide viewing angle, and symmetrical package. Available bins for XLamp XP-E LEDs include minimums of 100 lumens at 350 mA in cool white (5,000 K – 10,000 K) and 80.6 lumens at 350 mA in warm white (2,600 K – 3,700 K). The XLamp XP-E and XP-C LEDs are available to order with standard lead times. CREE INC., Durham, NC. (919) 313-5300.
