PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This SMD LED features an IPX8 water
resistant rating in a PLCC6 package.
These high performance tricolor SMT
LEDs are designed to work in a wide
range of applications. A wide viewing
angle and high brightness make
these LEDs suitable for outdoor and
full color video signage applications.
The encapsulation resin contains UV
inhibitors to minimize the eects of
long-term exposure to direct
sunlight, resulting in stable light
output over the life of the LED. This
PLCC6 package has an increased
package height to ease in the
manufacturing process.

KIT NUMBER SYSTEM
Cree LED lamps are tested and sorted into performance bins. A bin is specied by ranges of color, forward voltage, and
brightness. Sorted LEDs are packaged for shipping in various convenient options. Please refer to the “Cree LED Lamp
Packaging Standard” document for more information about shipping and packaging options.
Cree LEDs are sold by order codes in combinations of bins called kits. Order codes are congured in the following man-

NOTES
The packaging sizes of these SMD products are very small and the resin is still soft after solidication. Users are
required to handle with care. Never touch the resin surface of SMD products.
To avoid damaging the product’s surface and interior device, it is recommended to choose a special nozzle to pick
up the SMD products during the process of SMT production. If handling is necessary, take special care when picking
up these products. The following method is necessary:
