Product Nomenclature
LUXEON Rebel is tested and binned at 350mA.
The part number designation is explained as follows:
L X M L ꢀ A B C D ꢀ E F G H
Where:
A — designates radiation pattern (value P for Lambertian)
B — designates color (see LUXEON Rebel Binning and Labelling section)
C — designates color variant (0 for direct colored variants, C for CoolꢀWhite, N for NeutralꢀWhite and W for WarmꢀWhite)
D — designates test current (value 1 for 350 mA)
E — reserved for future product offerings
FGH — minimum luminous flux (lm) or radiometric power (mW) performance
Therefore products tested and binned at 350 mA follow the part numbering scheme:
L X M L ꢀ P x x 1 ꢀ x x x x
Average Lumen Maintenance Characteristics
Lifetime for solidꢀstate lighting devices (LEDs) is typically defined in terms of lumen maintenance—the percentage of initial light
output remaining after a specified period of time.
Philips Lumileds projects that coolꢀwhite, neutralꢀwhite, warmꢀwhite, green, cyan, blue and royalꢀblue LUXEON Rebel products
will deliver, on average, 70% lumen maintenance (B50, L70) at 50,000 hours of operation at a forward current of 700 mA. This
projection is based on constant current operation with junction temperature maintained at or below 135°C.
Philips Lumileds projects that red, redꢀorange and amber LUXEON Rebel products will deliver, on average, 70% lumen mainteꢀ
nance (B50, L70) at 50,000 hours of operation at a forward current of 350 mA. This projection is based on constant current
operation with junction temperature maintained at or below 110°C.
This performance is based on independent test data, Philips Lumileds historical data from tests run on similar material systems,
and internal LUXEON reliability testing. Observation of design limits included in this data sheet is required in order to achieve this
projected lumen maintenance.
Environmental Compliance
Philips Lumileds is committed to providing environmentally friendly products to the solidꢀstate lighting market. LUXEON Rebel is
compliant to the European Union directives on the restriction of hazardous substances in electronic equipment, namely the
RoHS directive. Philips Lumileds will not intentionally add the following restricted materials to the LUXEON Rebel: lead, mercury,
cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE).
Visual Appearance of LUXEON Rebel
All lighted LUXEON Rebel product will provide comparable Lambertian beam performance, suitable for use with commercially
available optical systems. Without power, LED die within different reels may appear visually different. Please contact your Philips
Lumileds or Future Electronics respresentative for further information.
