Product Binning and Labeling
Purpose of Product Binning
In the manufacturing of semiconductor products, there is a variation of performance around the average values given in the technical data sheets.
For this reason, Philips Lumileds bins the LED components for luminous flux, color and forward voltage (V
f
).
Decoding Product Bin Labeling
LUXEON Rebel Emitters are labeled using a three or 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. Using these codes, it is possible to determine optimum
mixing and matching of products for consistency in a given application. Reels of PC Amber Emitters are labeled with a three digit alphanumeric
CATcode following the format below.
Format of Labeling for Emitters
Reels of Green, Cyan, Blue, Royal-Blue, Red, Red-Orange and Amber Emitters are labeled with a three digit alphanumeric CAT code following the
format below.
ABC
A = Flux bin (J, K, L, M etc.)
B = Color bin (2, 4, 6 etc.)
C = V
f
bin (D, E, F, G etc.)
