THERMAL DESIGN
The maximum forward current is determined by the thermal resistance between the LED junction and ambient. Given
an existing thermal resistance of 12 °C/W or 15 °C/W between the junction and the solder point, it is crucial for the end
product to be designed in a manner that minimizes the thermal resistance from the solder point to ambient in order to
optimize lamp life and optical characteristics.

REFLOW SOLDERING CHARACTERISTICS
In testing, Cree has found XLamp XR-C LEDs to be compatible with JEDEC J-STD-020C, using the parameters listed
below. As a general guideline, Cree recommends that users follow the recommended soldering prole provided by the
manufacturer of solder paste used.
Note that this general guideline may not apply to all PCB designs and congurations of reow soldering equipment.

NOTES
Lumen Maintenance Projections
Cree now uses standardized IES LM-80-08 and TM-21-11 methods for collecting long-term data and extrapolating LED
lumen maintenance. For information on the specic LM-80 data sets available for this LED, refer to the public LM-80
results document at www.cree.com/xlamp_app_notes/LM80_results.
Please read the XLamp Long-Term Lumen Maintenance application note at www.cree.com/xlamp_app_notes/lumen_
maintenance for more details on Cree’s lumen maintenance testing and forecasting. Please read the XLamp Thermal
Management application note at www.cree.com/xlamp_app_notes/thermal_management for details on how thermal
design, ambient temperature, and drive current affect the LED junction temperature.
Moisture Sensitivity
XLamp LEDs are shipped in sealed, moisture-barrier bags
(MBB) designed for long shelf life. If XLamp LEDs are exposed
to moist environments after opening the MBB packaging but
before soldering, damage to the LED may occur during the
soldering operation. The following derating table denes the
maximum exposure time (in days) for an XLamp LED in the
listed humidity and temperature conditions. LEDs with exposure time longer than the time specied below must be
baked according to the baking conditions listed below.
Cree recommends keeping XLamp LEDs in their sealed moisture-barrier packaging until immediately prior to use. Cree
also recommends returning any unused LEDs to the resealable moisture-barrier bag and closing the bag immediately
after use.
Baking Conditions
It is not necessary to bake all XLamp LEDs. Only the LEDs that meet all of the following criteria must be baked:
• LEDs that have been removed from the original MBB packaging.
• LEDs that have been exposed to a humid environment longer than listed in the Moisture Sensitivity section above.
• LEDs that have not been soldered.
LEDs should be baked at 80 ºC for 24 hours. LEDs may be baked on the original reels. Remove LEDs from MBB packaging
before baking. Do not bake parts at temperatures higher than 80 ºC. This baking operation resets the exposure time as
dened in the Moisture Sensitivity section above.
Storage Conditions
XLamp LEDs that have been removed from original MBB packaging but not soldered yet should be stored in a room or
cabinet that will maintain an atmosphere of 25 ± 5 ºC and no greater than 10% RH (relative humidity). For LEDs stored
in these conditions, storage time does not add to exposure time as dened in the Moisture Sensitivity section above.

RoHS Compliance
The levels of RoHS restricted materials in this product are below the maximum concentration values (also referred to
as the threshold limits) permitted for such substances, or are used in an exempted application, in accordance with EU
Directive 2011/65/EC (RoHS2), as implemented January 2, 2013. RoHS Declarations for this product can be obtained
from your Cree representative or from the Product Documentation sections of www.cree.com.
REACh Compliance
REACh substances of high concern (SVHCs) information is available for this product. Since the European Chemical
Agency (ECHA) has published notice of their intent to frequently revise the SVHC listing for the foreseeable future,
please contact a Cree representative to insure you get the most up-to-date REACh SVHC Declaration. REACh banned
substance information (REACh Article 67) is also available upon request.
