Engineering Selection Recommendations

BXRC-27H2000-D-73 as Primary Substitute:

The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 is the qualified equivalent for the obsolete BXRC-27H2000-C-22. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following engineering factors:

1. Product Status Transition: The BXRC-27H2000-C-22 is classified as Obsolete, while the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 maintains Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and manufacturing support.

2. Dimensional and Optical Compatibility: Both parts share identical physical dimensions (36.20 mm diameter, 1.90 mm height), Light Emitting Surface (13.20 mm diameter), lens type (Flat), and viewing angle (120°), enabling direct mechanical and optical integration into existing designs.

3. Color and CRI Consistency: Both parts deliver White, Warm illumination at 2700K with CRI of 97, maintaining color quality specifications for decorative lighting applications. The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 employs a 3-Step MacAdam Ellipse tolerance versus the 2-Step specification of the main part, representing tighter color consistency.

4. Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage specifications are within 0.6V of each other (31.5V vs. 30.9V), ensuring compatibility with existing driver circuits designed for the BXRC-27H2000-C-22. Both parts operate at identical test conditions (500mA, 85°C).

5. Compliance Certification: The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 carries ROHS3 Compliant status, exceeding the RoHS Compliant designation of the main part. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected and MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings, confirming equivalent environmental and handling compliance.

6. Performance Enhancement: The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 delivers 1674 lm at 500mA versus 992 lm for the main part, representing a 69% increase in luminous flux. Efficiency improves to 108 lm/W from 63 lm/W. These performance gains result from Gen 7 technology advancement and do not compromise compatibility.

7. Connector Integration: Both parts feature integrated connectors, maintaining interface consistency for PCB assembly and driver connection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 be used as a direct replacement for the BXRC-27H2000-C-22 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 qualifies as a direct substitute. Both parts share identical physical dimensions, Light Emitting Surface diameter, lens type, viewing angle, color temperature (2700K), CRI (97), and connector configuration. Forward voltage specifications differ by only 0.6V (31.5V vs. 30.9V), which is within acceptable tolerance for driver circuit compatibility. No design modifications are required for mechanical or optical integration.

Q: What is the significance of the MacAdam Ellipse difference between the two parts?

A: The BXRC-27H2000-C-22 specifies 2-Step MacAdam Ellipse tolerance, while the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 specifies 3-Step MacAdam Ellipse tolerance. A 3-Step specification represents tighter color consistency control, meaning the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 maintains more uniform color output across production batches. This is a performance improvement that does not affect compatibility.

Q: Why does the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 have a lower maximum current rating (1.0A vs. 1.5A)?

A: The maximum current rating reflects the thermal and electrical design characteristics of each part. The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 achieves higher luminous flux (1674 lm vs. 992 lm) and efficiency (108 lm/W vs. 63 lm/W) at the standard 500mA test current through Gen 7 technology improvements. The lower maximum current rating does not impact applications designed for the BXRC-27H2000-C-22, which typically operate at or below 500mA.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected and MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings. The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 carries ROHS3 Compliant certification, which represents a more current RoHS standard than the RoHS Compliant designation of the BXRC-27H2000-C-22. This represents an improvement in environmental compliance status.

Q: What packaging format is the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 supplied in?

A: The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 is supplied in Tray packaging. Verify that your assembly process and inventory management systems are compatible with tray packaging format.

Q: Will the increased luminous flux of the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 affect thermal management in my application?

A: Thermal management depends on your specific driver circuit design and thermal interface implementation. Both parts are tested at identical conditions (500mA, 85°C). If your application operates the BXRC-27H2000-C-22 at maximum current (1.5A), verify that the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 thermal characteristics are compatible with your thermal design, as the substitute part is rated for a maximum of 1.0A.

Q: Is the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 available in the same quantity as the obsolete part?

A: Inventory availability varies. The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 maintains Active product status with current manufacturing support, ensuring ongoing availability. The BXRC-27H2000-C-22, classified as Obsolete, has limited remaining inventory (1038 pcs reported). For new designs or production runs, source the BXRC-27H2000-D-73 to ensure supply chain continuity.
