Description

Introduction

 

 

The Lumileds LUXEON IR 2720 Line represents a strategic solution for manufacturers who require massive radiant flux from a restricted PCB area. Specifically designed for high-performance infrared applications, this series bridges the gap between low-power mid-power emitters and bulky high-power components. Built on a robust ceramic 2720 platform, these emitters handle continuous drive currents up to 1000 mA while maintaining the spectral stability needed for precision biometric sensors and long-range surveillance cameras.

 

For LED module manufacturers and fixture designers, the LUXEON IR 2720 ensures a low-risk design-in path. Its industry-standard footprint facilitates high packing density, effectively reducing the overall system size and wind-load for outdoor security housings without compromising radiant intensity.

Key Product Features

 

 

  • High Radiant Flux Density: Delivering approximately 1300 mW at 1A, the 2720 series provides the necessary "punch" for high-definition night vision and facial recognition systems.
  • Precise 850nm & 940nm Binning: Characterized and binned at 85 °C, the LUXEON IR 2720 ensures that peak wavelength and power match the actual operating state of the fixture, not just a lab rating.
  • Advanced Thermal Management: Featuring a junction-to-case thermal resistance that is among the lowest in its class, this series facilitates efficient heat transfer. This stability protects the chip during continuous high-wattage operation, ensuring a reliable L70 lifespan.
  • Versatile Optical Patterns: Available in three beam angles-120°, 90°, and 60°-the series allows luminaire manufacturers to optimize their beam patterns without the immediate need for secondary optics.
  • Automotive-Grade Reliability: Built to exceed standard industrial testing, the ceramic package resists delamination and environmental stress, making it ideal for both critical indoor and harsh outdoor infrastructure.

FAQ

Q: Why choose 940nm over 850nm for security applications?

A: 850nm IR LEDs produce a slight visible red "glow," which can alert intruders. 940nm is virtually invisible to the human eye, providing "covert" illumination for stealth surveillance.

Q: Can I drive the LUXEON IR 2720 at higher than 1A?

A: While it is characterized at 1A, for continuous industrial operation, we recommend staying within the thermal limits specified in the datasheet. We advise using a Copper MCPCB with a Direct Thermal Path (DTP) to ensure the 4.0 °C/W thermal resistance is fully utilized.

Q: Does Gainer LED provide bin-specific shipments for large project installations?

A: Absolutely. We understand that for sensors, radiant power consistency is paramount. We coordinate wholesale shipments from consistent binning groups across your entire order.

Q: Is the 2720 series compatible with standard 3535 secondary optics?

A: Because the 2720 has a smaller footprint, standard 3535 optics may not seat correctly. We recommend using reflectors or lenses specifically designed for 2720/2835 footprints or utilizing the domed versions for better light capture.
