V Series
Introduction
The V Series™ LED Array products deliver high quality light in a compact and cost-effective solid-state lighting package.
These chip on board (CoB) arrays can be efficiently driven up to three times the nominal drive current, enabling design
flexibility not previously possible. These high flux density light sources are designed to support a wide range of high quality,
low cost directional luminaires and replacement lamps for both interior and exterior commercial and residential applications.
The V18 LED Array is available in a variety of electrical, CCT, and CRI combinations providing substantial design flexibility and
energy efficiency advantages.
Lighting system designs incorporating these LED arrays deliver increased system level efficacy and a longer service life.
Typical applications include replacement lamps and task, accent, spot, track, wide area, security, wall packs and down lights.
Features
• Efficacy of 180 lm/W typical, 3000K 80 CRI
• Reliable operation at up to 3x nominal current, 30%
increase in maximum lumens per LES size
• Wide selection of CCT options (2700K-6500K) with
minimum 70, 80 and 90 CRI options
• Uniform high-quality illumination
• 2 and 3 SDCM binning options (2700K – 4000K)
• Forward voltage bin codes and backside marking
• Instant light with unlimited dimming
• 5-Year warranty
Benefits
• Enables high efficiency lighting systems and lower
operating costs
• Supports the trend toward luminaire miniaturization
and delivers enhanced optical control
• Design flexibility for a broad range of lighting
applications
• Clean white light without pixelation
• Uniform consistent white light

Product Feature Map
Bridgelux arrays are fully engineered devices that
provide consistent thermal and optical performance on an
engineered mechanical platform. The V Series arrays are
the most compact chip-on-board devices across all of
Bridgelux’s LED Array products. The arrays incorporate
several features to simplify design integration and
assembly. Please visit www.bridgelux.com for more
information on the V Series family of products.

Notes for Table 2:
1. Nominal CCT as defined by ANSI C78.377-2011. Products with a CCT of 5000K-6500K are hot targeted to Tc = 85°C.
2. CRI values are minimums for all products. Minimum R9 value for 80 CRI products is 0, the minimum R9 values for 90 CRI products is 50. Bridgelux maintains a ± 3 tolerance on R9 values.
3. Drive current is referred to as nominal drive current.
4. Typical stabilized DC performance values are provided as reference only and are not a guarantee of performance.
5. Typical performance is estimated based on operation under DC (direct current) with LED array mounted onto a heat sink with thermal interface
material and the case temperature maintained at 85°C. Based on Bridgelux test setup, values may vary depending on the thermal design of the
luminaire and/or the exposed environment to which the product is subjected.
6. Minimum flux values at elevated temperatures are provided for reference only and are not guaranteed by 100% production testing. Based on Bridgelux
test setup, values may vary depending on the thermal design of the luminaire and/or the exposed environment to which the product is subjected.

Performance at Commonly Used Drive Currents
V Series LED arrays are tested to the specifications shown using the nominal drive currents in Table 1. V Series may also
be driven at other drive currents dependent on specific application design requirements. The performance at any
drive current can be derived from the current vs. voltage characteristics shown in Figures 1 & 2 and the flux vs. current
characteristics shown in Figures 3 & 4. The performance at commonly used drive currents is summarized in Table 3.

Notes for Table 4:
1. Parts are tested in pulsed conditions, Tc = 25°C. Pulse width is 10ms.
2. Voltage minimum and maximum are provided for reference only and are not a guarantee of performance.
3. Bridgelux maintains a tester tolerance of ± 0.10V on forward voltage measurements.
4. Typical coefficient of forward voltage tolerance is ± 0.1mV for nominal current.
5. Thermal resistance values are based from test data of a 3000K 80 CRI product.
6. Thermal resistance value was calculated using total electrical input power; optical power was not subtracted from input power. The thermal interface
material used during testing is not included in the thermal resistance value.
7. Vf min hot and max cold values are provided as reference only and are not guaranteed by test. These values are provided to aid in driver design and
selection over the operating range of the product.
8. This product has been designed and manufactured per IEC 62031:2014. This product has passed dielectric withstand voltage testing at 1140 V. The working
voltage designated for the insulation is 70V d.c. The maximum allowable voltage across the array must be determined in the end product application.

1. Each tube holds 20 V18 COB arrays.
2. One tube is sealed in an anti-static bag. Four bags are placed in a shipping box. Depending on quantities ordered, a bigger shipping box, containing four
boxes may be used to ship products.
3. Each bag and box is to be labeled as shown above.
4. Dimensions for each tube are 26.3 (W) x 9.5(H) x 510 (L). Dimensions for the anti-static bag are 75 (W) x 615 (L) x 3.1 (T) mm. Dimensions for the shipping

Packaging and Labeling
Figure 16: Gen. 8 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
