A new led packaging technology developed by Philips Lumileds is said to reduces the led size dramatically and to enable new approaches to solid state lighting design. Engineered for operation between 350mA and 1000mA, the Luxeon Rebel offers a guaranteed minimum performance, allowing greater design and manufacturing consistency. For applications requiring high efficacy, Luxeon Rebel can exceed 70 lumen/W at 350mA. When total light output needs to be maximised, the part delivers more than 160 lumens at higher drive currents. Warm white, neutral white and cool white colour temperatures, as well as standard InGaN and AlInGaP colours are available Measuring 3 x 4.5mm and with a height of 2.1mm, the ceramic based package is designed to withstand a maximum junction temperature of 150°C and it is the first power led for lighting to be rated for unlimited shelf life.
