DURHAM, NC – March 23, 2023 –– Cree LED, an SGH company (Nasdaq: SGH), announced today
the release of its J Series® 5050C E Class LEDs with the industry’s highest efficacy for high power
LEDs: 228 lumens per watt (LPW) typical at 4000K, 70 CRI and 1W. The new J Series LEDs deliver
up to three times the light output of competing 5050 LEDs at the same efficacy level. These
advanced LEDs are also designed with superior corrosion resistance for the most challenging
environments.

With the addition of the new E Class LEDs, Cree LED now offers four performance levels in the J
Series 5050 LED portfolio to address most directional general lighting applications. Unlike other
5050s with asymmetric die layouts that reduce intensity through secondary optics, J Series 5050
LEDs feature optimized layouts that deliver peak intensities up to 12.5% higher than the
competition as well as improved color-over-angle.

“The breakthrough performance of 5050C E Class LEDs enables substantial system cost savings
through the reduction in optics, PCBs and chassis material. Up to 40% system cost savings and
57% reduction in size are possible when redesigning from a lower performance 5050 LED to the
5050C E Class LED,” said David Peoples, vice president of marketing at Cree LED. “To speed up
the design-in process, 5050C E Class LEDs are compatible with optics designed for existing
square LES 5050 LEDs.”

Ideal for outdoor area, high/low bay, roadway and indoor professional applications, the new
5050C E Class LEDs are available in 2200K-6500K correlated color temperatures (CCTs) as well as
70, 80 and 90 CRI options for all CCTs.
Product samples are available now and production quantities are available with standard lead
times. T
