power light source
Luxeon III Star Introduction Luxeon® III is a revolutionary, energy efficient and ultra compact new light source, combining the lifetime and reliability advantages of Light Emitting Diodes with the brightness of conventional lighting.
Luxeon III is rated for up to 1400mA operation, delivering increased lumens per package.
Luxeon Power Light Sources give you total design freedom and unmatched brightness, creating a new world of light.
Features Highest flux per LED family in the world Very long operating life (up to 100k hours) Available in 5500K white, green, blue, royal blue, cyan Lambertian and side emitting radiation patterns More energy efficient than incandescent and most halogen lamps Low voltage DC operated Cool beam, safe to the touch Instant light (less than 100 ns) Fully dimmable No UV Superior ESD protection
Typical Applications For high volume applications, custom Luxeon power light source designs are available upon request, to meet your specific needs.
Reading lights (car, bus, aircraft) Portable (flashlight, bicycle) Miniaccent/Uplighters/ Downlighters/Orientation Fiber optic alternative/ Decorative/Entertainment Bollards/Security/Garden Cove/Undershelf/Task Automotive rear combination lamps Traffic signaling/Beacons/ Rail crossing and Wayside Indoor/Outdoor Commercial and Residential Architectural Edgelit signs (Exit, point of sale) LCD Backlights/Light Guides

Notes: 1.Slots in aluminumcore PCB for M3 or #4 mounting screw. 2.Electrical interconnection pads labeled on the aluminumcore PCB with "+" and "" to denote positive and negative, respectively. All positive pads are interconnected, as are all negative pads, allowing for flexibility in array interconnection. 3.Electrical insulation between neighboring Stars is required —aluminum board is not electrically neutral. 4.Drawings not to scale. 5.All dimensions are in millimeters.

Notes for Tables 1 & 2: 1.Minimum luminous flux or radiometric power performance guaranteed within published operating conditions. Lumileds main tains a tolerance of ± 10% on flux and power measurements. 2.Luxeon types with even higher luminous flux levels will become available in the future. Please consult your Lumileds Authorized Distributor or Lumileds sales representative for more information. 3.Typical flux value for 470 nm devices. Due to the CIE eye response curve in the short blue wavelength range, the minimum luminous flux will vary over the Lumileds blue color range. Luminous flux will vary from a typical of 17 lm for the 460465nm bin to a typical of 30 lm for the 475480 nm bin due to this effect. Although the luminous power efficiency is lower in the short blue wavelength range, radiometric power efficiency increases as wavelength decreases. For more information, consult the Luxeon Design Guide, available upon request. 4.Royal Blue product is binned by radiometric power and peak wavelength rather than photometric lumens and dominant wavelength.
