Abstract
An LED-based lamp can be made to have a form factor compatible with fixtures designed for MR16 lamps. Such a lamp can have a housing that provides an external electrical connection. Inside the housing is disposed a single emitter structure having a substrate with multiple light-emitting diodes (LEDs) arranged thereon. Different LEDs produce light of different colors (or color temperatures). For example, at least one LED can produce a warm white light, while at least one other LED produces a cool white light and at least one other LED produces a red light. A total-internal-reflection (TIR) lens is positioned to collect light emitted from the single emitter structure and adapted to mix the light from the LEDs to produce a uniform white light. A diffusive coating is applied to a front face of the TIR lens for further color mixing.
