Cree Expands High-Power Color LED Family with New XLamp® XP-C Color LEDs

These new XP-C LEDs are 10-to-50 percent brighter than Cree’s previous midrange color LEDs.

XLamp XP-C color LEDs are designed for 0.5-watt to 1-watt operation and can provide a cost-effective solution for many color lighting applications. In addition, XP-C LEDs are often compatible with existing optical designs, potentially reducing system design costs.

“Cree continues to expand design options within our industry-leading XLamp XP LED family,” said Paul Thieken, Cree, director of marketing, LED Components. “Cree offers the broadest portfolio of color LEDs in the industry, from high-brightness LEDs for the signage and entertainment industries to high-power LEDs for applications including architectural, color-changing, stage, emergency vehicle and transportation, all in a wide range of price-performance levels.”

Cree’s broad family of color XLamp LEDs is available through the Cree distribution network (www.cree.com/buyxlamp).
