Product Binning and Labeling
Purpose of Product Binning
In the manufacturing of semiconductor products, there are variations in performance around the average values
given in the technical data sheets. For this reason, Lumileds bins the LED components for luminous ux and forward
voltage (V
f
). Color is oered in a single 1 step, 3-step or 5-step MacAdam ellipse color space centered on the ANSI
CCT color bins. For additional information please review the MacAdam ellipse technical denition section.
Decoding Product Bin Labeling
LUXEON Z emitters are labeled using a four digit alphanumeric code (CAT code) depicting the bin values for emitters
packaged on a single reel. All emitters packaged within a reel are of the same 3-variable bin combination. Reels of
LUXEON Z emitters are labeled with a four digit alphanumeric CAT code following the format below.
ABCD
A = Flux/Radiometric power bin (L, M, etc.)
B and C = Color Bin (5A, 5B, 5C, 5D, 50, 30, 3U, 3L, 10)
D = V
f
bin (P, R, S)
Table 6. LUXEON Z Cat Code Logic
A B C D
Flux bin per DS
1 for 1 step 0 for 1 step
V
f
bin
3 for 3 step
0 for 70CRI
U or L (above (U) or below (L) black body line)
for 80CRI
5 for 5 step
A/B/C/D (5 step quadrant for 80 and 90CRI),
0 for 70CRI or less
70CRI:
1. Only 5 step available eg: LXZ2-4070 etc will, by default, mean 5 step.
2. 3 step and 1 step are sub sets of 5 step hence the cat code will state 30 or 10 if the part is actually 3 or 1 step .
80/90CRI:
1. 1 step available in 2280/90, 2780/90, 3080/90, 3580 only. Please contact your Philips Lumileds Sales representative for support.
2. 3U and 3L will be the color bin cat codes. For product below black body below work with your distribution representative on supportability per volume requirements.
