Cree ® XLamp ® XQ-A LEDs

Product catalog summary

Product Overview: The XLamp® XQ-A LED by Cree is a mid-power LED in a compact ceramic package, designed for long-term reliability across various lighting applications such as portable, directional, architectural, and vehicle lighting. It is available in both white and color configurations.

Key Features:

Smallest lighting class LED with dimensions of 1.6 x 1.6 mm.
Available in 70-, 80-, and 90-CRI white, and multiple colors including royal blue, blue, green, PC amber, red-orange, and red.
Maximum drive current: 300 mA for white LEDs, 250 mA for color LEDs.
Wide viewing angles ranging from 100° to 110° depending on color.
Reflow solderable and compatible with JEDEC J-STD-020C standards.
Unlimited floor life at ≤ 30 °C/85% RH, RoHS-compliant, and UL® recognized.

Technical Characteristics: The document provides details on thermal resistance, viewing angles, temperature coefficients, ESD withstand voltage, forward and reverse voltage, and LED junction temperature for various colors.

Flux Characteristics:

White LEDs: Luminous flux values are provided for different correlated color temperatures (CCT) and CRI levels.
Color LEDs: Dominant wavelength ranges and minimum radiant or luminous flux are listed for colors like royal blue, blue, green, PC amber, red-orange, and red.

Graphs and Tables: Include relative spectral power distribution, relative flux vs. junction temperature and current, and typical spatial distribution patterns for white and color LEDs.

Thermal Design: Highlights the importance of minimizing thermal resistance from the solder point to ambient to optimize lamp life and performance, with graphs showing maximum current vs. ambient temperature for different colors.

Reflow Soldering Characteristics: Compatible with JEDEC J-STD-020C standards, with specific ramp-up rates, preheat temperatures, and peak temperature ranges.

Measurements and Specifications: Luminous flux, radiant power, chromaticity, and CRI are binning specifications subject to change over time.

Pre-Release Qualification Testing: Cree conducts a detailed qualification process to ensure long-term reliability, though no RTOL testing was performed on the XQ-A LED.

Lumen Maintenance: Data collection and extrapolation follow standardized IES LM-80-08 and TM-21-11 methods.

Moisture Sensitivity: LEDs should remain in moisture-barrier packaging until soldering and can be stored as MSL 1 under ≤ 30°C/85% RH conditions once opened.

Compliance and Safety: The product complies with EU Directive 2011/65/EC (RoHS2) and is UL recognized, though not investigated as a fire enclosure. Direct exposure to the lamp can cause eye injury.

Mechanical and Packaging Details: Includes mechanical dimensions, recommended PCB solder pad and trace layout, and tape and reel packaging conforming to EIA-481D standards.
