Cree® XLamp® CXA1512 LED
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The XLamp® CXA1512 LED array
expands Cree’s family of high‑ux,
multi‑die arrays in a smaller, easy‑to‑use
platform. With XLamp LED lighting‑class
reliability, the CXA1512’s small,
uniform emitting surface enables both
directional and non‑directional lighting
applications including lamp retrot and
luminaire designs. Available in 2‑step,
3‑step and 4‑step color consistency,
and featuring a 9‑mm optical source,
the CXA1512 brings new levels of ux
and efcacy to this form factor.
The CX Family LED Design Guide
provides basic information on the
requirements to use the CXA1512 LED
successfully in luminaire designs.
