LUXEON Core, CX, and the new CS CoB board sizes are supported by industry-standard holders and optics

San Jose, CA – Though there are many standards in the LED industry, the footprint or board size for CoBs is not one of them. Over the years, companies that manufacture CoB holders and optics have largely designed their products to support the 3 board formats that are widely adopted by lighting manufacturers. With the introduction of LUXEON CS CoBs, Lumileds now offers a full range of LUXEON CoBs in each of the common board footprints.

“OEMs choose to implement LUXEON CoBs for better efficacy, color stability, and or reliability, but they don’t want to have to redesign their system,” said Noman Rangwala, Global Product Manager at Lumileds. “Now, with the CS CoB range, it’s easy for lighting manufacturers using many of the common square board configurations to switch to LUXEON.”

The LUXEON CS CoBs incorporate all the advances that Lumileds has implemented and match the performance of the company’s Core and CX CoBs. The CS Range is a general-purpose, high-performance CoB portfolio. The CS Pro CoBs are spectrally tuned for retail lighting where a “brighter and sharper” effect on merchandise is desired. The CS HE delivers even higher levels of efficacy for applications where energy efficiency is the driving characteristic.

The new LUXEON CS Range CoBs are available now through Lumileds global distribution network and complete details for all the products can be found at https://lumileds.com/products/cob-leds/

Energy efficiency per EU Ecodesign increases one full class for LUXEON 90CRI CoBs

San Jose, CA – May 18, 2023 – Lumileds has released its 5th Generation CoBs in the Core Range and Core Range PW lines elevating output and efficacy and particularly for 90CRI parts. Output and efficacy increases for high-CRI parts are critical for the retail and hospitality industries in particular in which CoBs play a vital role as the source for spot and area lighting.

“Our new 5th Generation CoB LEDs serve lighting manufacturers’ need for more light, higher efficacy, better than ever quality of light, and reliability they can count on,” said Noman Rangwala, Global Product Manager at Lumileds. “The significant performance increases are the direct result of our unique phosphor mix and LED manufacturing experience, and our commitment to continuously advance the state-of-the-art as we address the needs of lighting manufacturers.”

Lumileds tests and measures its CoBs per the European Union’s Ecodesign Directive and by these standards, 90CRI LUXEON Core Range CoBs have increased one full class. Complete energy specifications can be found on the European Product Registry for Energy Labeling (EPREL) website.

Phosphor advances also contribute to superior color stability as the latest LUXEON Core Range CoBs are dimmed. This performance is especially critical in retail installations in which spotlights are often positioned at different distances from the merchandise. To achieve even illumination, some of the lighting is dimmed and that can result in uneven color in the beam and visual effects on the merchandise. To resolve this common problem, Lumileds focused on color stability over dimming to ensure even color throughout the light beam regardless of dimming intensity.

LUXEON CoB Core Range Gen 5 and Core Range PW Gen 5 are available now through Lumileds global distribution network. Product details, specifications and datasheets are available at https://lumileds.com.
