Cree XLamp XB-D Amber LED High-Density XBDAMB-00-0000-000000501 for Professional Signaling

Product Details

Cree XLamp XB-D Amber LED High-Density XBDAMB-00-0000-000000501 for Professional Signaling. The Cree XLamp XB-D Amber represents a strategic engineering benchmark in the high-power LED industry, delivering the radiant intensity of the XP-G platform within a footprint that is 48% smaller. Specifically, the XBDAMB-00-0000-000000501 utilizes Cree's proven silicon carbide (SiC) based SC3 Technology™ to provide a saturated amber output (591nm typical). This component is the primary choice for LED module manufacturers seeking to reduce system Bill of Materials (BOM) costs without compromising on thermal stability or long-term lumen maintenance.

For luminaire designers and fixture manufacturers, the XB-D's 2.45 mm x 2.45 mm footprint facilitates extreme packing density on the PCB. This is a tactical advantage for multi-color architectural arrays and emergency signaling where high candela output must be achieved from a restricted optical aperture.

Critical Engineering Advantages

• Optimized Thermal Management: Featuring a junction-to-case thermal resistance of 6.5 °C/W, the XB-D handles heat dissipation more effectively than standard 2835 SMDs. This stability is critical for preventing the wavelength shift (Centroid Wavelength) that often affects amber AlGaInP chips during high-current operation.
• Characterized at 85 °C: Unlike budget emitters rated at 25 °C, Cree characteristically bins the XBDAMB series at 85 °C. This ensures that the amber chromaticity and radiant flux remain accurate under actual fixture operating temperatures, reducing the design margin of error for optical engineers.
• Seamless Optics Integration: The 135-degree viewing angle and standard focal height make this LED highly compatible with high-density secondary optics from brands like Ledil and Carclo, shortening the R&D cycle for fixture manufacturers.
• Industrial-Grade Durability: Built for 24/7 reliability, the XB-D series is backed by extensive LM-80 data, proving its resistance to sulfurization and thermal fatigue in harsh industrial or outdoor environments.

The XBDAMB-00-0000-000000501 is a staple light source for performance-heavy arrays:

• Emergency & Specialty Vehicle Lighting: Durable amber emitters for sirens and light bars requiring high-intensity 2.45mm SMD arrays.
• Transportation & Traffic Signaling: Reliable light engines for pedestrian crossing indicators and bus destination boards where color saturation is paramount.
• Architectural Accent Lighting: Compact, high-intensity amber arrays for facade grazing and bridge illumination.
• Amusement & Gaming hardware: Consistent, saturated amber light for high-density pixel control in entertainment equipment.
