CORM 2009 NIST Tutorial Workshop, Gaithersburg, MD, May 5, 2009 Overview of measurement standards for solid state lighting Yoshi Ohno Director of CIE Division 2 Member of ANSI C78-09, IESNA TPC National Institute of Standards and Technology Gaithersburg, Maryland USA 1
Solid State Lighting is becoming a reality 2
Current State of White LEDs Luminous Efficacy Goal From presentation by Fred Welsh at 2009 DOE SSL Program Planning Workshop, Feb. 2009, San Francisco. 3
Problems/Concerns in the industry Some very low quality products in the market (dim, short life, bad color). Inaccurate performance claims Insufficient information on product labels Many questions on color quality (rendering) Lighting designers still do not trust SSL products. They say more standards are needed. Still high cost (but government incentives to use SSL products are high.) * US DOE is addressing these problems with the Energy Star, CALiPER and other programs. 4
DOE s Solid State Lighting Program Strategy CALiPER From presentation by James Brodrick, DOE Energy Star Workshop, May 15, 2008 5

SSL Quality Advocates Program jointly developed by DOE and NGLIA a voluntary pledge program to assure that LED lighting, as it reaches the market, is represented accurately. introduces the Lighting Facts label, similar to the FDA Nutrition Facts label. provides a quick and simple summary of product performance data as measured by the new industry standard for testing photometric performance, IESNA LM-79-2008. http://www1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/ssl/advocates.html 7
DOE SSL Energy Star (Category A) 1. Under-cabinet kitchen lights 2. Under-cabinet shelf-mounted task lights 3. Portable desk/task lights 4. Recessed down lights 5. Out-door wallmounted portch 6. Out-door step lights 7. Out-door pathway 8

IES LM-80-08 Approved Method for Measuring Lumen Maintenance of LED Light Sources Scope. This document provides the methods of the measurement of lumen maintenance of sources including LED packages, arrays and modules only. This approved method does not provide guidance or make any recommendation regarding predictive estimations or extrapolation. IES TM-21-xx Lumen Maintenance Life: L 70 (hours): 70% lumen maintenance L 50 (hours): 50% lumen maintenance Testing at the LED case temperatures 55 C, 85 C, and a 3rd temperature selected by manufacturer, for 0 to 6000 h or longer. Ambient temperature within - 5 C from the case temperature. Model 0 Model 1 Model 2 Model 3 Model 4 Model 5 Model 6 Model 7 Data 17

Large Gap between LED manufacturers and Lighting Industry <LED manufacturer> LEDs measured in production. LEDs are measured with short pulses. LEDs are binned and rated at T j =25 C. LED performance varies with temperature Pulse vs. DC? <Lighting industry> LEDs in luminaires are hot (T j = 60 C to over 100 C) Photometric measurements in steady DC mode. Performance of LEDs = Performance of SSL products 20
IESNA LM-xx Approved Method for Electrical and Photometric Measurement of High Power LEDs Status: first draft High power LED: an LED device that requires a heat sink or other type of thermal management as an integral part of the operation. Covers LED packages and LED arrays Covers measurements in pulse mode as well as DC mode (NIST method) Covers measurements of Total luminous flux (lumen) Luminous efficacy (lm/w) Chromaticity, CCT, CRI Methods using Sphere-spectroradiometer Sphere-photometer Goniophotometer 21
