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)
designates color bin (example: (example: 3=3 SDCM, 5=5 SDCM parts)
designates forward voltage bin (example: A1, A2, B1, B2)
B
C C
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:
L 3 A 1
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.
