instantaneous luminous flux (i.e. at initial turn
on) when the LED emitter is driven at a constant
forward current at a constant ambient
temperature. Equation #3.8A models the
thermally stabilized luminous flux at any forward
current compared to the instantaneous
luminous flux prior to heating at a specified
forward current and a constant ambient
temperature. Equation #3.9A models the
thermally stabilized luminous flux at any forward
current compared to the thermally stabilized
luminous flux at test conditions of I
and R
A good example of an application for Equation
#3.9A is the normalized luminous flux versus
forward current graph shown in Figure 3 of the
SuperFlux LED Data Sheet. Finally, Equation
#3.10A models the thermally stabilized luminous
