FEASA LED ANALYSER
ICT VERSION
Setting Tolerance Limits for Colour and Intensity
The test procedure requires the user to set the Pass/Fail limits for Colour and Intensity for each
LED which then become the standard against which LEDs to be tested are compared.
The Pass/Fail limits for Colour are chosen, in conjunction with manufacturer’s specifications,
from measurements taken from a sample number of typical LEDs.
Because Hue is expressed as a single number it is more convenient to set the limits for the
colour in terms of their Hue value.

The Saturation value must be taken into account when testing White LED's. The Saturation is
a value between 0% and 100%. A pure white will have a value close to 0% while a pure
colour will have a value close to 100%.
The Pass/Fail limits for intensity are chosen from the average intensity values from a number
of sample LEDs.
