Cree XP-G2 R2 SMD LED on star board - 2700K, 114lm, CRI 80
The Cree XP-G2 R2 SMD LED on star board from Lumitronix is a compact and efficient light source for high-quality lighting applications. With a warm white color temperature of 2700K, a color rendering index of CRI 80 and a luminous flux of up to 114 lumens, this LED is particularly suitable for retrofit lamps, spotlights, compact luminaires and flashlights. Thanks to the pre-assembled star board, the LED is easy to integrate and reliable to operate.
The XP-G2 is based on the proven SC³ platform from Cree and offers improved efficiency compared to the previous generation. The square design with a centrally positioned chip ensures even heat distribution and facilitates integration into optical systems and cooling concepts. This makes the LED suitable for professional lighting systems as well as for development and prototyping applications.

Special features of the XP-G2 series
The XP-G2 series is one of the most widely used high-performance LED platforms from Cree. It was developed to achieve higher efficiency compared to the original XP-G generation and to reduce system costs at the same time. In many applications, more powerful and energy-efficient lighting solutions can be realized.
One advantage of the series is its high level of compatibility: the XP-G2 remains optically and mechanically compatible with the original XP-G series. This means that existing designs can often continue to be used without major changes. This feature is particularly interesting for developers who want to modernize existing lighting systems or make them more efficient.
Pre-assembled on a practical starboard
The LED is already mounted on a star board. This circuit board facilitates electrical contacting and mechanical integration and enables good heat dissipation in combination with suitable heat sinks. This design offers a fast and reliable solution for prototypes, small series or DIY projects.
Areas of application

FAQ about this high-performance LED
- How is the LED connected to the star board?
The star board has marked solder pads for plus and minus. It can be soldered directly or connected with suitable plug connectors.
- Does the LED need a heat sink?
Yes, high-performance LEDs should always be mounted on a suitable heat sink to ensure a stable temperature and long service life.
- Can the LED be connected directly to a voltage source?
No. For safe operation, a constant current source is recommended, which limits the current to the desired operating value.
- Which optics can be used with the LED?
Many standard secondary optics for XP footprints are compatible. This allows different beam angles to be realized for spotlights or area lighting.
