XP Family LED
Binning and Labeling
Introduction
This document describes the product nomenclature required to select and
order Cree’s XLamp XP Family LEDs. XLamp XP 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 contains 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) and luminous ux (brightness). Color XLamp LEDs are sorted by dominant wavelength (color)
and luminous ux (brightness). Amber, red-orange and red LEDs are additionally binned into forward voltage bins.
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 XP Family LEDs, as well as a list of standard order codes, is provided in this document.
