White LED array

11 July 2012 Opto-Electronics

Cree has developed the MT-G2 LED – the first EasyWhite LED array built on the company’s SC³ technology platform. The LED delivers 25% brighter LEDs compared to the previous MT-G, enabling a wider spectrum of high-lumen applications.

MT-G2 LEDs are designed for high-output, directional lighting applications and are a suitable replacement for lighting applications that currently use inefficient halogen lamps. The LEDs are optimised for use in track, accent, lamp retrofit, downlighting and other applications where colour quality, consistency and optical control are required.

Featuring Cree EasyWhite technology, the new LED delivers up to 2100 lumens in warm white (3000 K) at 25 W, 85°C and provides high colour consistency, with enhanced optical control. The new, brighter device shares the same footprint as the original MT-G, providing customers a seamless upgrade path. The MT-G2 is designed to be used as a single component in an LED design to better emulate the filament appearance of incumbent lighting products and simplify design and manufacturing.

With an 8,9 x 8,9 mm footprint, the LED is available in 2- and 4-step EasyWhite colour temperatures ranging from 2700 K to 5000 K. It is available in minimum 80 and 90 CRI options and features multiple voltage selections, including higher voltages that enable the use of smaller, more efficient drivers to lower system cost.
