Introduction
The Bridgelux Décor SeriesTM line of products produce unmatched quality of light with brilliant color rendering options
designed specifically for high end, niche applications. The Bridgelux Décor line of specialty LED products is available
on the Bridgelux Vero Series of chip on board products.
Décor SeriesTM Ultra products provide a high CRI of 97, befitting of the most luxurious retail shops and world
renowned museums.
Décor SeriesTM Food products offer color points developed to address the unique requirements of the food, grocery,
and restaurant industries. Highlighting the distinctive colors and nuanced patterns found in meats and breads, the
Décor Food products are a must have for any butcher counter or bakery.
Décor SeriesTM Specialty products provide color points developed specifically for the healthcare and entertainment
industries. The 5600K color point combined with a CRI of 90 provides the bright white required by these industries.
The Vero platform represents a revolutionary advancement in chip on board (COB) light source technology and
innovation. Vero simplifies luminaire design and manufacturing processes, improves light quality, and defines a
platform for future functionality integration.
The Vero Series products are available in four different LES (light emitting surface) configurations and have been
engineered to reliably operate over a broad current range, enabling new degrees of flexibility in luminaire design
optimization. These industry leading arrays deliver increased lumen density to enable improved beam control and
precision lighting with 2 and 3 SDCM color control standard for clean and consistent uniform lighting. Vero also
includes an on board connector port to enable solder free electrical interconnect and simple easy to use mounting
features to enable plug-and-play installation.

Notes for Tables 1 & 2:
1. Nominal CCT as defined by ANSI C78.377-2011.
2. Minimum CRI for 97 CRI products is 95 CRI, all other CRI values are minimums. Minimum R9 value for 80 CRI products is 0, the minimum R9 values for
90 CRI products is 50.
3. Drive current is referred to as nominal drive current.
4. Products tested under pulsed condition (10ms pulse width) at nominal test current where Tj (junction temperature) = Tc (case temperature) = 25°C.
5. Typical performance values are provided as a reference only and are not a guarantee of performance.
6. Bridgelux maintains a ± 7% tolerance on flux measurements.
7. Minimum flux values at the nominal test current are guaranteed by 100% test.
8. Typical stabilized DC performance values are provided as reference only and are not a guarantee of performance.
9. 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.
10.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
Vero LED arrays are tested to the specifications shown using the nominal drive currents in Table 1. Vero 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 Figure 3-6 and the flux vs. current
characteristics shown in Figures 7-10. 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 ± O.10V on forward voltage measurements.
4. Typical coefficient of forward voltage tolerance is ± O.1mV for nominal current.

current upto 105°C.
2. For IEC 62717 requirement, please contact Bridgelux Sales Support.
3. See Bridgelux Application Note AN31, Assembly Considerations for Vero LED arrays, for more information.
4. Bridgelux recommends a maximum duty cycle of 10% and pulse width of 20ms when operating LED Arrays at the maximum peak pulsed
current specified. Maximum peak pulsed current indicate values where the LED array can be driven without catastrophic failures.
5. Light emitting diodes are not designed to be driven in reverse voltage and will not produce light under this condition. Maximum rating provided

Performance Curves
The maximum allowable drive current for the Vero 10 and Vero 29 product families is dependent on the operating case
temperature. Please refer to the Product Feature Map (page 2) for the location of the Tc Point.
Figure 1: Vero 10 Drive Current Derating Curve
Notes for Figure 1:
1. In order to meet LM-80 lifetime projections Vero 10 may be driven up to 700mA at case temperatures up to 90°C. Operating conditions above
case temperatures of 90°C driving conditions must follow the Vero 10 Drive Current Derating Curve.
2. Lumen maintenance (L70) and lifetime predictions are valid for drive current and case temperature conditions used for LM-80 testing as included
in the applicable LM-80 test report for these products. Contact your Bridgelux sales representative for LM-80 report.

Typical Color Spectrum
97 CRI- Wavelength & CRI Characteristics at Drive Current, Tc=25°C
The high CRI light delivered by the Bridgelux Vero Décor products reproduces colors faithfully compared with natural
light. Figure 22 displays the spectral curve of Décor.
Table 6 compares CRI R values of Décor to other light sources. The typical overall CRI (Ra) of 97 results in excellent color
representation - especially for colors which the human eye is particularly sensitive.
Décor delivers high typical values of R9 (98) and R15 (98). These are important attributes for the perception of realistic
colors. R9 enhances red colors and R15 enables realistic rendering of human skin tones.

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.

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: EYE SAFETY
Eye safety classification for the use of Bridgelux Vero
LED arrays is in accordance with IEC specification
EN62471: Photobiological Safety of Lamps and Lamp
Systems. Vero LED arrays are classified as Risk Group
1 (Low Risk) when operated at or below the maximum
drive current. Please use appropriate precautions. It
is important that employees working with LEDs are
trained to use them safely.
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.
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.
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.
