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 3020 LEDs are labeled using a 4-digit alphanumeric CAT code following the format below:
A B C D
A

designates luminous flux bin (ex. M=36 to 40 lumens, R=48 to 52 lumens)
designates color bin (ex. 7D, 7E, 7F, 7G, 7H, 7J, 7K, 7L or 7M for 3000K parts)
designates forward voltage bin (ex. T=2.8 to 2.9V, Y=3.2 to 3.3V)

Therefore, a LUXEON 3020 with a lumen range of 36 to 40, color bin of 7K and forward voltage range of 2.8 to 2.9 has the
following CAT code:

Luminous Flux Bins
Table 5 lists the standard photometric luminous flux bins for LUXEON 3020 emitters. 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.
