LUXEON 5050
High efficacy and lumens in a multi-die, high
power package, enabling low system costs
LUXEON 5050 is a multi-die, high power package that provides high

luminance from a single package to enable cost effective, single optic and

directional fixture designs. LUXEON 5050 uses an industry standard 5050

surface mount package with the smallest round Light Emitting Surface

(LES). LUXEON 5050 comes in 70CRI, 80CRI and 90CRI with a wide range

of CCTs, and offers hot-color targeting to ensure that the LEDs are within

color target at application conditions of 85°C.

Features and Benefits Primary Applications

Small LES (4.6mm) enables good optic design for great punch Downlights

Enables highest efficacy system design by driving at low current High Bay & Low Bay

Hot-color targeting ensures color is within ANSI bin at 85°C Lamps

Binned within 3-step and 5-step MacAdam ellipse, ensuring color uniformity Outdoor

Compatible with low cost and high efficacy drivers Spotlights

Notes for Table 1:
1. Correlated color temperature is hot targeted at Tj=85°C.
2. Luminous flux and CRI are based upon mounted package on highly reflective surface at Tj=25°C. Typical CRI is approximately 2 points higher than the minimum CRI specified, but this
is not guaranteed.
3. Lumileds maintains a tolerance of ±2 on CRI and ±7% on luminous flux measurements.

Product Bin and Labeling Definitions

Decoding Product Bin Labeling

In the manufacturing of semiconductor products, there are variations in performance around the average values given in the
technical datasheet. For this reason, Lumileds bins LED components for luminous flux or radiometric power, color point, peak or
dominant wavelength and forward voltage.

LUXEON 5050 LEDs are labeled using a 4-digit alphanumeric CAT code following the format below:

A B C C

Where:

A – designates luminous flux bin (example: H=450 to 500 lumens, L=600 to 650 lumens)

B – designates color bin (example: (example: 3=3 SDCM, 5=5 SDCM parts)

C C – designates forward voltage bin (example: A1, A2, B1, B2)

Therefore, a LUXEON 5050 with a lumen range of 600 to 650, color bin of 3 and forward voltage range of 23.5 to 24.2V has the
following CAT code:

L3A1

Luminous Flux Bins

Table 5 lists the standard luminous flux bins for LUXEON 5050 LEDs. Although several bins are outlined, product availability in a
particular bin varies by production run and by product performance. Not all bins are available in all CCTs.

J 500 550
K 550 600
L 600 650

N 700 750
Notes for Table 5:
