Lumileds adds smaller, 6.5mm 1202s to LUXEON CoB arrays for spotlights and directional lamps

In an expansion of its LUXEON CoB line, Philips Lumileds of San Jose, CA, USA has introduced the LUXEON CoB 1202s array, with a more compact size than the existing CoB 1202 that makes it a suitable for designers of PAR lamps and other compact directional lamps and spotlights. The CoB 1202s is also available with CrispWhite Technology, which highlights the richest whites, vibrant reds and colors for retail settings.

“The 1202s lifts the bar even higher by producing light output in a smaller, 6.5mm LES [light-emitting surface] that was only possible previously in 9mm LES arrays,” says Ahmed Eweida, product manager for the LUXEON CoB line. “In addition, the 1202s does so with a superior CBCP [center-beam candle power], delivering 65,000 candelas at a 10˚ beam angle,” he adds.

Lumileds first introduced CrispWhite Technology for the retail lighting community across its chip-on-board line in July. “Shop owners and their customers clearly prefer LED lighting with CrispWhite over CDM and halogen,” says product line director Eric Senders. Also, the LUXEON CoB range (including the 1202s) is available in a very warm version – with a correlated color temperature (CCT) of 2200K – for applications requiring a candlelight-like glow.

Lighting designers are using the CoB 1202s to produce highly reliable directional lamps. A full list of compatible drivers, optics and holders helps speed time-to-market of all downlights and spotlights as well.
