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 2835 Line LEDs are labeled using a 4- or 5-digit alphanumeric CAT code following the format below:
A or Ax B C D
Where:
A or Ax – designates luminous flux bin (example: T=56 to 60 lm, D2=29 to 31 lm)
B C
D
–
–
designates correlated color bin (example: 5D, 5E, 5F, 5G, 5H, 5J, 5K, 5L, 5M for 4000K parts)
designates forward voltage bin (example: W=3.0 to 3.1V, X=3.1 to 3.2V)
Therefore, a LUXEON 2835C 3V LED with a lumen range of 56 to 60 lm, color bin of 5D and a forward voltage range of 3.0 to 3.1V
has the following CAT code:
T 5 D W
