Cree launches 200 lm/W LED to establish a new milestone in the industry

The new XLamp® MK-R LEDs make it possible to achieve system light efficiency of over 100 lm/W for high lumen applications for outdoor and indoor directional applications, including halogen replacement lamps. XLamp® MK-R LEDs offer EasyWhite® color temperature binning for better color consistency with just one LED. For systems that use multiple LEDs, XLamp® MK-R LEDs help luminaire manufacturers reduce system cost by enabling a smaller number of LEDs to achieve the same light output and light quality as current systems. \

Nicola Vendrame, CEO of Linea Light Group, said: “Creek is able to launch 200 lm/W LEDs so quickly, and it’s amazing! The high luminous efficiency of XLamp® MK-R LEDs means we can use higher drives. More light output without heat dissipation. The XLamp® MK-R LED combines size, color consistency and optical control to help indoor directional lighting with a new generation of performance."

John Edmond, co-founder and director of Advanced Optoelectronics, pointed out: "Creek's relentless pursuit of innovation has led to continuous breakthroughs in LED lighting. The introduction of XLamp® MK-R LEDs will once again change the industry. XLamp® MK-R LED This level of performance LED will accelerate the development of high-light output lighting applications, and may even achieve applications we have never thought of before."

The XLamp® MK-R LED package measures 7 mm x 7 mm with a light source size of 6 mm and a light output of up to 1600 lm at 15 W and 85 °C. XLamp® MK-R LEDs offer 85°C characterization, 2,700 K - 7,000 K color temperature selection, and minimum color rendering index of 70, 80, and 90 (at selected color temperature conditions). The XLamp® MK-R LED is the ninth product based on the Cree SC3 technology platform. Innovative technology platform uses Cree's advanced silicon carbide (SiC) technology to demonstrate superior performance in LED chip structure and fluorescence conversion, and to match the latest packaging technology to provide the industry's most advanced LED devices. .
