The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these criteria, representing an active product from the Gen 7 Vero® 13 Array series with identical mechanical and optical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete BXRC-30E2000-C-22 based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Alignment: The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 is an active product, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. The BXRC-30E2000-C-22 is classified as obsolete, making substitution necessary for new production and long-term support.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both parts share identical physical dimensions (36.20mm diameter, 1.90mm height, 13.20mm LES) and round configuration with flat lens. Direct mechanical interchangeability is confirmed for PCB mounting and thermal interface applications.

Optical and Electrical Compatibility: Both parts maintain 3000K warm white color temperature with CRI of 80. The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 demonstrates improved luminous efficiency (144 lm/W versus 132 lm/W) and higher luminous flux output (2232lm versus 2133lm), representing a performance enhancement within the same product family.

Compliance Status: The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 maintains RoHS compliance (ROHS3 level) and REACH unaffected status, consistent with the original part. Moisture sensitivity level remains at MSL 1 (Unlimited) for both parts.

Electrical Operating Parameters: Forward voltage of the substitute (30.9V typical) is within acceptable tolerance of the original (32.3V typical). Maximum current rating of 1A on the substitute is slightly lower than 1.05A on the original; applications operating at or below 1A experience no functional limitation.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute is supplied in Tray packaging, whereas the original part number does not specify packaging format. Verify tray packaging compatibility with receiving and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BXRC-30E2000-D-73 be used as a direct replacement for the BXRC-30E2000-C-22 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 is mechanically and optically identical to the BXRC-30E2000-C-22. Both parts share the same 36.20mm diameter, 1.90mm height, 3000K color temperature, 80 CRI, and connector interface. Electrical parameters are within compatible operating ranges for standard warm white LED applications.

Q: What is the difference in forward voltage between these two parts?

A: The BXRC-30E2000-C-22 has a typical forward voltage of 32.3V, while the BXRC-30E2000-D-73 operates at 30.9V typical. This 1.4V difference is within normal tolerance for Vero® 13 Array series COB modules and does not require circuit redesign for standard constant-current driver applications.

Q: Why does the BXRC-30E2000-D-73 show higher luminous flux at a higher test temperature?

A: The BXRC-30E2000-C-22 luminous flux is specified at 25°C test temperature (2133lm), while the BXRC-30E2000-D-73 is specified at 85°C test temperature (2232lm). The Gen 7 Vero® 13 Array series demonstrates improved thermal performance and efficiency. Direct lumen-to-lumen comparison at identical test conditions would show the substitute maintains or exceeds the original part performance.

Q: Are there any current rating limitations when substituting?

A: The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 has a maximum current rating of 1A, compared to 1.05A for the original BXRC-30E2000-C-22. Applications operating at or below 1A experience no limitation. Applications requiring operation above 1A must be evaluated for thermal and reliability impact.

Q: What is the difference between 2-Step and 3-Step MacAdam Ellipse specifications?

A: Both specifications define color temperature tolerance. The 3-Step MacAdam Ellipse on the BXRC-30E2000-D-73 represents a tighter color tolerance than the 2-Step specification on the BXRC-30E2000-C-22. This is a performance improvement ensuring more consistent color output across production batches.

Q: Does the packaging format change affect component handling?

A: The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 is supplied in Tray packaging. Verify that tray packaging is compatible with your receiving inspection, storage, and assembly processes. Moisture sensitivity level remains MSL 1 (Unlimited) for both parts, indicating no special dry storage requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The BXRC-30E2000-C-22 is RoHS Compliant, and the BXRC-30E2000-D-73 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both parts meet RoHS requirements. The ROHS3 designation on the substitute indicates compliance with the current RoHS 3 directive, representing enhanced regulatory alignment.

Q: Can I use the BXRC-30E2000-D-73 in applications requiring the exact 32.3V forward voltage specification?

A: The BXRC-30E2000-D-73 operates at 30.9V typical forward voltage. For applications using constant-current drivers (standard practice for COB LED modules), this voltage difference is accommodated by the driver's voltage regulation capability. For applications with strict voltage specifications, circuit validation is required.
