TestingTemperature

Luminus surface mount LEDs are typically tested with a 20 msec

input pulse and a junction temperature of 25ºC. Expected flux

values in real world operation can be extrapolated based on the

information contained within this product data sheet.

Multiple Operating Points

The tables on the following pages provide typical optical and

electrical characteristics. Since the LEDs can be operated over a

wide range of drive conditions (currents from less than 1A to

13.5A, and duty cycle from <1% to 100%), multiple drive

conditions

are listed.

SBT-90 White LEDs are production tested at 9.0 A. The values

shown at other current conditions are for additional reference at

other possible drive conditions.

SBT-90 Red LEDs are productions tested of 13.5A

LuminusTechnology

Luminus’ technology enables large area LED chips with uniform

brightness over the entire LED chip surface. The optical power

and brightness produced by these large monolithic chips

enable solutions which replace arc and halogen lamps where

arrays of traditional high power LEDs cannot.

PackagingTechnology

Thermal management is critical in high power LED applications.

With a thermal resistance from junction to heat sink of 0.5º C/W,

Luminus SBT-90 LEDs have the lowest thermal resistance of any

LED on the market. This allows the LED to be driven at higher

current densities while maintaining a low junction temperature,

thereby resulting in brighter solutions and longer lifetimes.

Reliability

Designed from the ground up, Luminus LEDs are one of the

most reliable light sources in the world today. They have passed

a rigorous suite of environmental and mechanical stress tests,

including mechanical shock, vibration, temperature cycling and

humidity, and have been fully qualified for use in extreme high

power and high current applications. With very low failure rates

and median lifetimes that typically exceed 60,000 hours,

Luminus LEDs are ready for even the most demanding

applications.

Environmental Benefits

Luminus LEDs Whitehelp reduce power consumption and the

amount of hazardous waste entering the environment. All

Luminus LED products manufactured by Luminus are RoHS

compliant and free of hazardous materials, including lead and

mercury.

Technology Overview

Luminus LED benefit from a suite of innovations in the fields of chip technology, packaging and thermal management. These

breakthroughs allow illumination engineers and designers to achieve solutions that are high brightness and high efficiency.
