Cree High Intensity Colour LEDs for Highest Candela Performance

Cree Candela

Cree introduces XLamp XQ-E High Intensity LEDs, the industry’s first family of colour LEDs optimized for optical performance. This drop-in upgrade for proven XQ-E High Density designs enables lighting manufacturers to double the candela performance with minimal redesign. The new high intensity LEDs leverage XQ-Es’ proven optical symmetry and consistency across all colours to improve colour mixing and simplify the production process for lighting manufacturers. Built on Cree’s SC5 Technology Platform, the XQ-E High Intensity LED is the smallest building block available for colour LED designs, allowing lighting manufacturers to quickly boost performance and drastically reduce size for directional applications such as track and architectural lighting.
Available in white, red, red-orange, PC amber, green, blue and royal blue, the XQ-E High Intensity LED features Cree’s new primary optic design, which radically reduces optical source size by more than 50% to deliver the industry’s best optical control.

The XQ-E High Intensity White is available in colour temperatures ranging from 2700K to 6200K and CRI options of 70, 80 and 90. Product samples are available now and production quantities are available with standard lead times.
