Bin Codes Explained

Bin Coding is a method of describing the specifications of an LED in a short and simple manor.
The code consist of 4 parts:  The flux rating, tint, Vf (forward voltage), and color.
Sometimes the color code will be left off. Leaving just a 3 part code.

Old Bin Coding System Chart

A new Bin Coding system has now been made to more accurately designate the tint of an LED.
Simply put, this new system divides the tint code by smaller increments.  With the old bin coding, a 3 tint LED could still be an off white color.  Having a slight hint of green, blue, or yellow.  This new code will specify even the slight off white tint.
