Cree announces 100 lumens XLamp LED into mass production

CREE, a leading provider of LED solid state lighting components, announced that XLampLED (the minimum luminous flux of 350mA is 100lm) can be mass produced, setting a new standard for the brightness and efficiency of the lighting class LED.

The performance of XLampLED has been improved by 100% in the last 17 months, compared with the previous generation of XLampLED, the new generation of XLampLED improved brightness by a factor of up to a factor of 25%, or achieved a growth of about 55% under the same effect. In addition, the new XLampLED retains the same package as the previous generation, thus protecting the design investment of the client.

StrategiesUnlimited's RobertSteELe said that the commercialization of such high-performance products will certainly accelerate the transformation of the lighting market to solid-state lighting source.

Cree, vice president and general manager of NorbertHiller, said that this is a mass production of the announcement, rather than the results of research and development or small batch feasible declaration. These LED enable lighting manufacturers to use less LED than ever before, reducing the initial product cost and reducing energy consumption.
