   XR-E (R2) 8 °C/W 980 x 980 μm^2/880 x 880 μm^2* 1A ~270@1A ~73.0 90° 3.7V@1A The Cree XR-E used to use the EZ1000 die., but, as of 1/9/2009, EZ900 Gen IIs are used. http://www.cree.com/Products/pdf/XLamp7090XR-E.pdf
   XR-C (P4) 12 °C/W 680 x 680 μm^2 .5A 105.2@.5A 58.4 90° 3.6V@.5A The XR-C emitter has the same package size as the XR-E, but uses a smaller EZ700 Die with only a single bond wire. This is more affordable, lower performing emitter. http://www.cree.com/Products/pdf/XLampXR-C.pdf
   MC-E (M) 3 °C/W 4 Chips 980 x 980 μm^2 each 0.7A/die (total 2.8A) 750.7@.7A 78.9 110° 3.4V@.7A Individually addressable dies http://www.cree.com/products/pdf/XLampMC-E.pdf
   XP-E (R2) 9 °C/W 980 x 980 μm^2 1A 254.9@1A 73.3 115° 3.479@1A http://www.cree.com/products/pdf/XLampXP-E.pdf
   XP-C (Q4) 12 °C/W 680 x 680 μm^2 .5A 128.8@.5A 73.6 110° 3.5V@.5A The XP-C emitter has the same package size as the XP-E, but uses a smaller EZ700 Die with only a single bond wire. This is more affordable, lower performing emitter. http://www.cree.com/Products/pdf/XLampXP-C.pdf
   XP-G (R5) 6 °C/W 1400 x 1400 μm^2 1.5A 462@1.5A 86.8 125° 3.547@1.5A The XP-G emitter has very high efficacy due to it’s low VF (from having a large die) http://www.cree.com/Products/pdf/XLampXP-G.pdf

   Luxeon I (lambertian) 15 °C/W 1000x1000 μm^2 .35A 45@.35A 37.6 140° 3.42V@.35A Slugs are not electrically neutral. Isolation required http://www.philipslumileds.com/pdfs/DS25.pdf
   Luxeon III 13 °C/W 1000x1000 μm^2 1A 90@1A 27.1 140° 3.9@1A http://www.philipslumileds.com/pdfs/DS45.pdf
   Luxeon V 8 °C/W 4 chips, 1000x1000 μm^2 each .7A 120@.7A 25.1 120° 6.84@.7A The Luxeon V LED uses quad dies in a 2S2P configuration, similar to the MC-E(MC-E, though has isolated dies) though much older. The Lux V was actually very inefficient -- Overdriving a Lux III would result in higher efficiency http://www.philipslumileds.com/pdfs/DS40.pdf
   Luxeon K2 (V) 9 °C/W 1000x1000 μm^2 1.5A 140@1.5A 24.2 140° 3.85@1.5A http://www.philipslumileds.com/pdfs/DS51.pdf
      Thin Film Flip Chip (TFFC**) 5.5 °C/W 1000x1000 μm^2 1.5A 300@1.5A 51.9 120° 3.85@1.5A The Luxeon K2 LED series has been discontinued in favor of the Luxeon Rebel, which offers the same performance in a smaller package. http://www.philipslumileds.com/pdfs/DS60.pdf
   Luxeon Rebel***
      Thin Film Flip Chip (TFFC*),  10 °C/W 1000x1000 μm^2 1A 225@1A 66.2 120° 3.4@1A The Luxeon Rebel 100 is most commonly used in the newest minimaglite LEDs http://www.philipslumileds.com/pdfs/DS61.pdf
