INTRODUCTION
This document describes the product nomenclature re-
quired to select and order Cree’s XLamp MX Family of
LEDs. XLamp MX Family LEDs are tested and sorted
into bins which are then combined into orderable kits
identied by an order code.
All XLamp LEDs are tested and sorted by color
and brightness into a unique bin. Each bin con-
tains LEDs from only one color and brightness group
and is uniquely identied by a bin code. White
XLamp LEDs are sorted by chromaticity (color), lu-
minous ux (brightness) and sometimes voltage
and/or color rendering index (CRI). LEDs are shipped
on reels containing LEDs from one bin and are always
labeled with the appropriate bin code.
Kits contain LEDs from a number of similar bins and are
fully dened by their order codes. A full explanation of
the order codes for XLamp MX Family LEDs, as well as
a list of standard order codes, is provided in this docu-
ment.
