Scope

QC/T 1038-2016 is the English-translated version of 汽车用发光二极管(LED)及模组.

QC/T 1038-2016 is the Chinese automotive industry standard for light-emitting diodes and LED modules used on motor vehicles.

It sets technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, marking, packaging, transport and storage, and defines the LED and the bin into which LEDs with similar optical, chromaticity and electrical characteristics are grouped.

Module requirements include resistance to reverse supply voltage and superimposed AC voltage, behaviour under slowly falling and rising supply voltage and reset after voltage dips.

Thermal limits follow, with LED thermal resistance of no more than 30 °C/W and module light decay of no more than 15%, along with EMC performance. It applies to LEDs and modules fitted to category M, N and O vehicles, and other vehicles may refer to it. Issued on 5 April 2016, it has applied since 1 September 2016.
