Cree introduces the industry's highest color consistency LED

Cree Introduces Industry's Color Consistent LEDs to Further Lead Its LED Market Leadership

Beijing, July 21, 2010 – Cree, Inc. (Nasdaq: CREE), the market leader in LED lighting, has achieved the industry's smallest in its award-winning multi-chip XLamp® MP-L and MC-E EasyWhiteTM LEDs. The warm white and neutral white light binning further established its leading position in the LED industry.

The breakthrough in this technology is the ability to provide a single double-step MacAdams ellipse binning for each color temperature, optimized to provide color consistency similar to incandescent lamps, eliminating the need to purchase multiple small points The file can achieve complex color mixing.

Paul Thieken, Cree's director of LED component marketing, pointed out: "This innovation provides a simple solution for the lighting industry to solve the previously challenging problems - the high-efficiency of lighting-grade LEDs and the color consistency of traditional incandescent lamps. Perfectly combined, Cree EasyWhite technology provides customers with a smaller single bin, which reduces customer costs and is expected to accelerate time-to-market, further advance LED lighting revolution and accelerate the replacement of low-energy lighting."

EasyWhite binning technology is a unique feature of Cree's lighting-grade multi-chip LED components that help customers specify color temperature and light output, simplifying LED system design and improving color consistency between LEDs. Each bin is 94% smaller than the ANSI C78.377 quadrilateral in terms of blackbody trajectory and standard warm white/neutral white CCT point cross-section.

The XLamp MP-L and MC-E LEDs that support EasyWhite's two-step binning are available in a variety of color temperature products such as 2700 K, 3000 K, 3500 K, and 4000 K, and are sampling now and will be in volume production.
