K arrays in this datasheet deliver high flux at high efficacy in a small, easy to use package.
The high efficiency delivers high light output in thermally constrained systems like retrofit lamps and high
efficiency in systems like downlights aiming for high energy efficiency. The small size bolt down package
enables simple assembly in space constrained systems. LUXEON K is specified at real world operating
conditions, Tj 85°C. With Freedom From Binning, every LUXEON K falls within a single 3 McAdam ellipse
positioned around the center point of the ANSI nominal CCT bins to deliver tight Correlated Color
Temperature control to ensure consistency in system color point. In addition, these parts deliver the
lumen maintenance and reliability that all LUXEON LEDs are renowned for. This document contains the
performance data needed to design and engineer LUXEON K based applications.

General Information
Product Nomenclature
LUXEON K products are specified and binned “hot” under conditions comparable to those found in “real-world” lighting products. The test
conditions are at 350 mA D.C. with junction temperature at 85°C.
The part number designation is explained as follows:
