Note 4: Duty Cycle used to specify device ratings under Pulsed operation. PhlatLight devices can operate at duty cycles ranging from 1% to
100%. At higher duty cycles, drive current should be adjusted to maintain the junction temperature at desired levels to meet the
application lifetime requirements.
Note 5: In pulsed operation, rise time from 10 to 90% of forward current should be larger than 0.5 microseconds.
Note 6: For Blue and EP-Blue devices, total flux from emitting area at typical dominant wavelength at recommended peak drive current con-
ditions.

Note 1: Luminus PhlatLight LEDs are designed for operation to an absolute maximum forward drive current density of 2.5A/mm2 cw, and
3A/mm2 pulsed (f>240Hz, duty cycle < 60%). Please refer to absolute maximum rating table above for specific absolute maximum cur-
rents for the products covered in this datasheet. Product lifetime data is specified at recommended forward drive currents. Sus-
tained operation at absolute maximum currents will result in a reduction of device lifetime compared to recommended forward drive
currents. Actual device lifetimes will also depend on junction temperature. Refer to the lifetime derating curves (available from
Luminus) for further information.
Note 2: In pulsed operation, rise time from 10 to 90% of forward current should be larger than 0.5 microseconds.
Note 3: Sustained operation at Maximum Operating Junction Temperature (Tjmax) will result in reduced device life time.
