INTRODUCTION
This document describes the product nomenclature
required 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
identied by an order code.
All XLamp LEDs are tested and sorted by color and
brightness into a unique bin. Each bin contains LEDs
from only one color and brightness group and is uniquely
identied by a bin code. White XLamp LEDs are sorted
by chromaticity (color), luminous 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 dened 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
document.
