Cree Again Extends XLamp CXA Family with a 68% Brighter LED Array
Cree, Inc. introduces two new XLamp® LED Arrays to enable high-lumen applications ranging from wallpacks to canopy lighting with one CXA LED family. The new CXA3590 LED Array delivers up to 16,225 lumens at 85°C, 68 percent more lumens compared to Cree’s previous brightest array. The CXA3590 LED Array is the ideal light source to replace 250-watt metal halide (MH) fixtures—using 40 percent less power and designed to last twice as long.
“We are excited that Cree is extending the CXA family because it enables us to address more applications with a single, easy-to-use platform,” said David Lin, general manager, YAH JUANG Lighting Technology. “The CXA3590 LEDs allow us to address high-lumen applications with a single LED, a feat which would have taken hundreds of other LEDs to accomplish.”
Cree also introduces the CXA3070 LED Array, which delivers more than 11,000 lumens at 85°C and shares the same footprint and package design as the existing CXA3050 LED. Both the CXA3590 and CXA3070 arrays are optimized to simplify design and enable low system cost. The new high light-output LED arrays deliver up to 134 lumens-per-watt at 85°C and 70-95 CRI options – expanding the industry’s broadest family of LED arrays that push the boundaries of lighting-class performance by combining high quality of light with high light output and efficacy.
“Cree CXA LED Arrays set the industry standard for integrated arrays, providing excellent efficacy, reliability and light output,” said David Gershaw, president, RemPhos Technologies LLC. “The high-performance CXA3070 LED Array enables us to offer metal halide replacements that exceed the efficiency and life of the technology they replace.”
Characterized and binned at 85°C, the new LEDs are available in ANSI White and EasyWhite® color temperatures (2700K – 5000K), providing the industry’s best color consistency for designs that use only one LED. Cree® XLamp CXA3590 and CXA3070 LED samples are available now and production quantities are available with standard lead times. Please visit www.cree.com/cxa to learn more about the new CXA LEDs.
