Cree LED XLamp® XE-B LEDs

Cree LED XLamp® Element B (XE-B) LEDs expand the Element product line with a smaller package optimized for high intensity and ideal color mixing. Element LEDs provide breakthrough solutions for color-mixing lighting applications that require high light output and full control over spectral content. Cree LED XE-B’s tiny 1.4mm x 0.9mm footprint package includes all the features of the larger XE-G LED, including a large, isolated thermal pad, ESD protection, and minimal spacing between the LED chip and the package edge.

The XE-B platform is consistent across all colors in key LED design parameters, including package size, PCB footprint, anode/cathode orientation, optical source size, optical source location, and ESD protection. This consistency makes it easy to reuse core design elements, such as PCBs and optics, across a wide range of designs. Cree LED XLamp Element B (XE-B) LEDs are optimized for directional lighting applications that benefit from multi-color LED designs, including indoor directional, architectural, entertainment, and aftermarket automotive.
