Together with Energy Labeling Regulation ELR (EU) 2019/2015 which was amended by regulation (EU) 2021/340 for energy labelling of light sources, manufacturers are required to declare an energy class based on key technical specifications from each of their product and register it in an open data base managed by EPREL It is now a legal requirement for a vendor of light sources to upload information about their products into the EPREL database before placing these products on the market in the EU. Table 3 below provides a list of part numbers that are in compliance with ELR and are currently listed in the EPREL database. At Bridgelux, we are fully committed to supplying products that are compliant with pertinent laws, rules, and obligation imposed by relevant government bodies including the European Energy Labeling regulation. Customers can use these products with full confidence for any projects that fall under the ELR.

HCL encompasses the effects of lighting on the physical and emotional health and well-being of people. Throughout evolution, the human visual system has evolved under the natural light of sun and fire. These light sources have standardized industry spectral power definitions that describe the state of natural light. However, conventional metrics such as CCT, CRI, and TM-30 fail to adequately quantify the naturalness, or closeness of these light sources to the standardized natural spectra. Due to a lack of an industry standard metric to quantitatively measure the naturalness of a light source, Bridgelux has pioneered a new metric that takes the guesswork out of comparing LED light sources to natural light. Average Spectral Difference, or ASD, is calculated by measuring the absolute difference between two spectra at discrete wavelengths. These values are averaged across a wavelength range derived from the photopic response curve, or V(λ); a luminous efficiency function describing the average spectral sensitivity of human perception of brightness. The range of 425nm to 690nm was selected to remove the tails of the V(λ) gaussian distribution below 1% of the peak value at 555nm, covering 99.9% of the area under the photopic response curve. Natural light is defined following the approach of IES TM-30; black body curves for light sources of ≤4000K and the CIE standard illuminant D for light sources of ≥ 5000K. Natural light has an ASD of 0%; lower ASD values indicate a closer match to natural light. Thrive is engineered to provide the closest match to natural light available using proprietary chip, phosphor and packaging technology, resulting in an ASD between 8% to 10% for all CCTs. By comparison, standard 80, 90, and 98 CRI light sources have ASD values that are 100% to 300% larger than Thrive. To learn more about the ASD metric, please contact your Bridgelux sales representative. 8 Electrical Characteristics Table 7: Electrical Characteristics Forward Voltage Pulsed, Tc = 25ºC (V) 1, 2, 3, 8 Part Number Drive Current (mA) Minimum BXRC-xxx4001-C-7x Typical Maximum Typical Coefficient of Forward Voltage4 ∆Vf/∆Tc (mV/ºC) Typical Thermal Resistance Junction to Case5,6 Rj-c (ºC/W) Driver Selection Voltages7 (V) Vf Min.

Drawing dimensions are in millimeters. 3. Unless otherwise specified, tolerances are ±0.1mm. 4. Mounting holes (2X) are for M2.5 screws. 5. Bridgelux recommends two tapped holes for mounting screws with 31.4 ± 0.10mm center-to-center spacing. 6. Screws with flat shoulders (pan, dome, button, round, truss, mushroom) provide optimal torque control. Do NOT use flat, countersink, or raised head screws. 7. Solder pads and connector port are labeled “+” and “-“ to denote positive and negative, respectively. 8. It is not necessary to provide electrical connections to both the solder pads and the connector port. Either set may be used depending on application specific design requirements. 9. Refer to Application Notes AN30 and AN31 for product handling, mounting and heat sink recommendations. 10. The optical center of the LED Array is nominally defined by the mechanical center of the array to a tolerance of ± 0.2mm. 11. Bridgelux maintains a flatness of 0.10mm across the mounting surface of the array. 15 Packaging and Labeling Figure 19: Drawing for Vero 18 Packaging Tray Notes for Figure 19: 1. Dimensions are in millimeters. 2. Drawing is not to scale. 16 Packaging and Labeling Figure 20: Vero Series Packaging and Labeling Notes for Figure 20: 1. Each tray holds 100 COBs. 2. Each tray is vacuum sealed in an anti-static bag and placed in its own box. 3. Each tray, bag and box is to be labeled as shown above. Figure 21: Product Labeling Bridgelux COB arrays have laser markings on the back side of the substrate to help with product identification. In addition to the product identification markings, Bridgelux COB arrays also contain markings for internal Bridgelux manufacturing use only. The image below shows which markings are for customer use and which ones are for Bridgelux internal use only. The Bridgelux internal manufacturing markings are subject to change without notice, however these will not impact the form, function or performance of the COB array. Customer Use- 2D Barcode Scannable barcode provides product part number and other Bridgelux internal production information. Customer Use- Product part number Internal Bridgelux use only. 17 Design Resources Application Notes 3D CAD Models Bridgelux has developed a comprehensive set of application notes and design resources to assist customers in successfully designing with the Vero product family of LED array products. For all available application notes visit www.bridgelux.com. Three dimensional CAD models depicting the product outline of all Bridgelux Vero LED arrays are available in both IGS and STEP formats. Please contact your Bridgelux sales representative for assistance. Optical Source Models LM80 Optical source models and ray set files are available for all Bridgelux products. For a list of available formats, visit www.bridgelux.com. LM80 testing has been completed and the LM80 report is now available. Please contact your Bridgelux sales representative for LM-80 report. Precautions CAUTION: CHEMICAL EXPOSURE HAZARD Exposure to some chemicals commonly used in luminaire manufacturing and assembly can cause damage to the LED array. Please consult Bridgelux Application Note AN31 for additional information. CAUTION: RISK OF BURN Do not touch the Vero LED array during operation. Allow the array to cool for a sufficient period of time before handling. The Vero LED array may reach elevated temperatures such that could burn skin when touched. CAUTION CONTACT WITH LIGHT EMITTING SURFACE (LES) Avoid any contact with the LES. Do not touch the LES of the LED array or apply stress to the LES (yellow phosphor resin area). Contact may cause damage to the LED array. Optics and reflectors must not be mounted in contact with the LES (yellow phosphor resin area). Optical devices may be mounted on the top surface of the plastic housing of the Vero LED array. Use the mechanical features of the LED array housing, edges and/or mounting holes to locate and secure optical devices as needed. Disclaimers MINOR PRODUCT CHANGE POLICY STANDARD TEST CONDITIONS The rigorous qualification testing on products offered by Bridgelux provides performance assurance. Slight cosmetic changes that do not affect form, fit, or function may occur as Bridgelux continues product optimization. Unless otherwise stated, array testing is performed at the nominal drive current. 18 About Bridgelux: Bridging Light and Life™ At Bridgelux, we help companies, industries and people experience the power and possibility of light.
