Package Codes

Package Extraction Rules

The handler extracts package codes based on series prefix:

Series Prefix Package Code Physical Size Notes
LXZ1 Z2 2.2 x 1.4mm LUXEON Z compact package
LXML Rebel 4.4 x 4.4mm Industry-standard Rebel
L130 3030 3.0 x 3.0mm Mid-power standard
L135 3535 3.5 x 3.5mm Mid-power standard
L150 5050 5.0 x 5.0mm High-power mid-power

Suffix-Based Package Codes

Suffix Package Type Description
PW Power High-power package variant
ES Emitter Bare emitter (no lens)
DS DomeLED Dome lens package
UV UV UV wavelength package
IR IR Infrared package
RGB RGB RGB multi-die package
RGBW RGBW RGBW multi-die package

Series Extraction Rules

LX-Prefix Series (Classic LUXEON)

For MPNs starting with LX, extract the first 4 alphanumeric characters:

// LXML-PWC1-0100 → LXML
// LXHL-PW09 → LXHL
// LXZ1-PB01 → LXZ1
// LXA2-PW00 → LXA2

for (int i = 0; i < mpn.length() && i < 4; i++) {
    if (Character.isLetterOrDigit(mpn.charAt(i))) {
        series.append(mpn.charAt(i));
    }
}

L1/L2-Prefix Series (Newer Products)

For MPNs starting with L1 or L2, extract the first 4 characters:

// L1T2-3070000000000 → L1T2
// L1M1-xxx → L1M1
// L1V0-xxx → L1V0

return mpn.substring(0, 4);

Numbered Series (Mid-Power)

For MPNs starting with L followed by digits, extract until non-alphanumeric:

// L130-5780003000W21 → L130
// L135-xxx → L135
// L150-xxx → L150

for (char c : mpn.toCharArray()) {
    if (Character.isLetterOrDigit(c)) {
        series.append(c);
    } else {
        break;
    }
}

Color Code Extraction

Color codes are typically found after a dash in the MPN:

For LUXEON Z and Rebel (LXZ1, LXML)

Color code is the first character after the dash:

// LXZ1-PB01 → P (Power) or B (Blue) depending on interpretation
// Extract position dash+1

int dashIndex = mpn.indexOf('-');
if (dashIndex > 0 && dashIndex + 2 <= mpn.length()) {
    return mpn.substring(dashIndex + 1, dashIndex + 2);
}

For Mid-Power (L130, L135)

Color code is positions 4-5 (after series prefix):

// L130-5780003000W21 → positions 4-5 after prefix
if (mpn.length() >= 6) {
    return mpn.substring(4, 6);
}

Compatible Series (Replacement Logic)

The handler recognizes these cross-series compatibilities:

Series 1 Series 2 Compatibility Notes
LXML (Rebel) LXZ1 (Z) Similar flux, different footprint
L130 (3030) L135 (3535) Same technology, different size

Note: Cross-series compatibility indicates similar electrical characteristics but may require PCB redesign due to different footprints.

Supported Component Types

The handler supports these ComponentType values:

Type Description
LED Generic LED type
LED_HIGHPOWER_LUMILEDS Lumileds-specific high-power LED

Handler Implementation Notes

Pattern Registration

All patterns are registered for both LED (base type) and LED_HIGHPOWER_LUMILEDS (manufacturer-specific type):

// Each series is registered twice
registry.addPattern(ComponentType.LED, "^L1T2.*");
registry.addPattern(ComponentType.LED_HIGHPOWER_LUMILEDS, "^L1T2.*");

getSupportedTypes() Issue

Known Bug: The handler uses HashSet instead of Set.of():

// Current (mutable, non-deterministic order)
Set<ComponentType> types = new HashSet<>();
types.add(ComponentType.LED);
types.add(ComponentType.LED_HIGHPOWER_LUMILEDS);

// Should be (immutable, deterministic)
return Set.of(ComponentType.LED, ComponentType.LED_HIGHPOWER_LUMILEDS);

Package Code Extraction Notes

  1. Series-based extraction takes precedence over suffix extraction
  2. If no series match, suffix is extracted via regex ^[A-Z0-9]+
  3. Unknown suffixes are returned as-is (no default)

Learnings & Quirks

MPN Format Variability

  • LUXEON MPNs have varying levels of detail after the dash
  • Some MPNs include flux bins, CCT values, and packaging codes
  • The same LED may have many MPN variants for different bins/CCT

Low-Power Series Pattern

The LW Q18 pattern includes a space, which is unusual:

registry.addPattern(ComponentType.LED, "^LW Q18.*");

This may cause issues with MPN normalization that removes spaces.

Color Bin vs CCT

  • Color LEDs use color codes (R, G, B, A=Amber, PC=PhotonConversion)
  • White LEDs use CCT bins in the MPN (2700K, 4000K, 5000K, etc.)
  • The handler's extractColorCode() method handles both patterns

Automotive Qualification

  • LXA2 and LXA3 series are AEC-Q102 qualified
  • Automotive MPNs may have additional suffixes for qualification level

Handler Test Coverage

As of January 2026, LumiledsHandler does not have dedicated tests. When adding tests:

  1. Place tests in handlers package, NOT manufacturers package
  2. Use MPNUtils.getManufacturerHandler("LXML-PWC1") for handler access
  3. Test all series prefixes: L1T2, L1M1, L1V0, LXML, LXHL, LXZ1, LXCL, LXI8, LXA7, L130, L135, L150, LW Q18, LXA2, LXA3

Cross-Manufacturer Equivalents

LUXEON LEDs compete with:

  • Cree XP-E, XP-G series
  • OSRAM OSLON series
  • Nichia 757 series
  • Samsung LM301 series

These are NOT direct replacements due to different footprints and optical characteristics.
