Lumileds easy replacement LEDs ideal for retrofit designs

The LUXEON 2835 LEDs from Lumileds are now being stocked by Mouser. They are engineered as an ideal upgrade for an industry-standard LED package. They are available in several configurations of light output and string voltage and electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection to meet a variety of lighting application needs including retrofit lamps, downlights, and troffers. The LEDs are offered in two light output ranges with a minimum colour rendering index (CRI) of 80: LUXEON 2835C for higher efficacy and an industry-leading 240mA maximum drive current with 3V and 6V options and LUXEON 2835E for cost-effective retrofit lamp designs with 6V and 9V options. The 2835C 3V is available in a neutral white 4000K version that produces 58 lumens at 156lm/W, and a warm white 3000K version that produces 54 lumens at 145lm/W when driven at 120mA. The 2835C 6V is available in a 4000K version that produces 113 lumens at 152lm/W. The 2700K version produces 103 lumens at 138lm/W when driven at 120mA. The 2835E 9V targets soft white (2700K) and produces 72 lumens at 129lm/W, and the 2835E 6V versions produce 49 lumens at 132lm/W (3000K) or 48 lumens at 129lm/W (2700K) when driven at 60mA. All 2835 LEDs can be driven at double these reference drive currents to achieve even higher flux and use fewer LEDs per bulb. Forward voltage and luminous flux are binned at a junction temperature of 25degC, while colour is hot-targeted at 85degC with the exception of the 2835C 3V, which is targeted at junction temperature of 25degC. The 2835 LEDs from Lumileds are now available in an industry-standard 2.8mm × 3.5mm surface mount package. They are targeted toward a broad array of general-purpose lighting applications including retrofit lamps, indoor lighting and linear fixtures.
