Lumileds Adds Constant-Voltage Flexible LED Strips to Matrix Platform Family of Integrated LED Products

LED maker Lumileds of San Jose, CA, USA has introduced the third member of its Matrix Platform family of integrated LED products.

The 24V constant-voltage LUXEON XF-3014 CV flexible LED strips distribute extremely uniform light across user-selectable lengths and require only a simple 24V constant-voltage driver, says Lumileds. The LED strips' flux uniformity and color uniformity aid applications such as edge-lit lights, downlights, cove lighting and accent lighting, the firm adds. The XF-3014 CV strips are claimed to be the industry's first LED strips to achieve 2% light output attenuation over a 10m strip. "Our unmatched flux uniformity eliminates the possibility of spottiness or color variation from strip to strip and over long lengths," says Andrew Cohen, product manager of the Matrix Platform family.

The LUXEON XF-3014 CV line of flexible LED strips provides 1000 lumens per meter and is offered as cuttable segments or with snap-in connectors. Specified at color temperatures of 2700K, 3000K and 4000K and a minimum color rendering index (CRI) of 80, the strips are offered in three configurations for design flexibility using:

6 LEDs per segment, cuttable every 96mm; 6 LEDs, in 96mm segments with connectors; 30 LED, in 480mm segments with connectors.

Each 96mm segment produces 112 lumens with luminous efficacy of 105lm/W at 24V (3000K).

Lumileds says that the Matrix Platform speeds time to market by offering turnkey solutions using proven, reliable LUXEON LEDs integrated with components and connectors on flexible or rigid substrates. Due to its in-house capabilities and reliable assembly practices, the Matrix Platform is also said to simplify customer supply chains. The LUXEON XF-3014 CV line addresses the need for long lengths of LED flexible strips with uniform light output and simple 24V driver supportability that can be easily mounted with a pressure sensitive adhesive.
