New Luxeon 2835N Extends the Mid-Power Performance Curve

Lumileds announces the new Luxeon 2835N, which fills in the performance gap between the Luxeon 2835C and the Luxeon 2835 HE. The three variants are relatively close in performance at 65mA -- Luxeon 2835N delivers 204 lumens per Watt -- as current increases, real differences in both light output and efficacy become clear. With its 300mA current capability and excellent thermal characteristics, the new LUXEON 2835N is an optimal 3V choice, the company says.

"The value of Luxeon 2835N really starts to show itself as luminaire manufacturers take advantage of its current and thermal capabilities," says product manager Ryan Dong. "At 100mA, we're delivering 190lm/W and at 150mA LUXEON 2835N is producing 72.8 lumens with an efficacy of 172lm/W."

Luxeon 2835N is available in a complete CCT/CRI portfolio. Both 80 and 90 CRI are supported at CCTs from 1,800K to 6,500K. The package has been proven with more than 12-thousand hours of data for the LM80 report, the company says. Four quadrant micro color bins and 0.1Vf bins complete an offering for luminaire manufacturers that gives them access to the exact parts they need.
