Note 1: All ratings are based on operation at room temperature.

Note 2: Listed drive conditions are typical for common applications. SBT-90 devices can be driven at currents ranging from 1A to 13.5A and at duty
cycles ranging from 1% to 100%. Drive current and duty cycle should be adjusted as necessary to maintain the junction temperature desired
to meet application lifetime requirements.
Note 3: Forward voltage temperature coefficient at current density of 1 A/mm2 and heat sink temperature of 40ºC. Contact Luminus for value at other
drive conditions.
Note 4: Luminus SBT-90 LEDs are designed for operation to an absolute maximum forward drive current density of 1.5 A/mm2. Product lifetime data is
specified at recommended forward drive currents. Sustained 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 for further information. In pulsed operation, rise time from 10-90% of forward current should be larger than 0.5
microseconds.
Note 5: Lifetime is dependent on LED junction temperature . Thermal calculations based on input power and thermal management system should be
performed to ensure Tj is maintained below Tj-max rating or life will be reduced. Refer to lifetime plots on page 9 and lifetime and reliability
application note for further information.
