📌 Product Overview
The XL-2835UWC-1W from XINGLIGHT is a high-performance 2.8mm x 3.5mm SMD LED designed for 1W power applications. 💡 It delivers a luminous flux of 100-130 lm with a cool white color temperature range (6000K-7500K), making it ideal for high-density lighting arrays.
Target applications primarily include indoor and commercial lighting, such as light tubes, downlights, and backlighting. ⚡ Real design focus must be placed on thermal management and binning selection to ensure consistent color and output in mass production.
🚀 Typical Applications
Based on the model's 120° viewing angle and 350mA drive current, the XL-2835UWC-1W is best suited for:
- Indoor Lighting: Fluorescent tubes, residential light strips, and downlights requiring uniform illumination.
- Commercial Display: Illuminated advertising signs, light boxes, and channel letters.
- Backlighting: LCD panels requiring bright, efficient light sources.
- Decorative Lighting: Flexible light strips where low profile (0.8mm height) is critical.

🛒 Sourcing & Supply Considerations
- Binning Codes: Specify brightness (K3-K5), voltage (M19-3 to M19-6), and color temp (UW9-13) codes when ordering to guarantee batch consistency.
- Authenticity: Verify packaging markings and request CRI (Color Rendering Index) data if not specified in the standard datasheet.
- Samples: Always request pre-production samples to validate thermal performance in your specific heatsink design.
❓ FAQ
Q: What is the maximum current I can drive this LED with continuously? A: The Absolute Maximum Rating for continuous forward current (IF) is 350 mA. Exceeding this will likely degrade the LED lifespan or cause immediate failure.
Q: What does Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 3 mean for my production line? A: It means the components are sensitive to moisture. After opening the vacuum bag, you have 168 hours (1 week) to solder them. If not used within this time, they must be baked to remove moisture before reflow to prevent "popcorning" damage.
Q: Why is the Forward Voltage range (2.8V-3.4V) so wide? A: Forward voltage varies by manufacturing bin. You must select the correct voltage bin code (e.g., M19-3 for 3.0V-3.1V) to match your driver's constant current output requirements.
Q: Can I use a leaded soldering process for this component? A: Yes, the datasheet provides profiles for both leaded (max 235℃) and lead-free (max 255℃) processes. However, strict adherence to the time-above-temperature limits is critical to avoid damaging the yellow colloid.
Q: How should I manage the thermal design? A: With 1W power dissipation in a small 2.8x3.5mm footprint, the PCB acts as the primary heatsink. Ensure your PCB has sufficient copper area to keep the junction temperature within the -40℃ to +85℃ operating range.
