Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the BXRC-30G2000-C-22 is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Type: Chip On Board (COB)
• Color: White, Warm
• CCT: 3000K
• Configuration: Round
• Size / Dimension: 36.20mm Dia
• Height: 1.90mm
• Light Emitting Surface (LES): 13.20mm Dia
• Lens Type: Flat
• Features: With Connector
• CRI: 90
• Base Product Number: BXRC-30

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant or higher (ROHS3)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The substitute part BXRC-30G2000-D-73 satisfies all critical matching parameters and maintains or exceeds compliance requirements. The substitute represents an evolution within the same base product family (BXRC-30), transitioning from the legacy Vero® 13 Array series to the Gen 7 Vero® 13 Array series.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: BXRC-30G2000-D-73

The BXRC-30G2000-D-73 is the direct substitute for the obsolete BXRC-30G2000-C-22. Selection of this substitute is based on the following engineering criteria:

1. Product Status: The substitute maintains Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The main part is classified as Obsolete, making continued procurement impractical.

2. Mechanical Compatibility: Identical physical dimensions (36.20mm diameter, 1.90mm height) and form factor (round, flat lens) ensure direct mechanical replacement without redesign of mounting interfaces or optical systems.

3. Electrical Compatibility: Both parts operate at 500mA test current with compatible forward voltage characteristics. The substitute's forward voltage of 30.9V versus 32.3V for the main part falls within standard LED driver tolerance ranges and does not require circuit modification.

4. Optical Compatibility: Identical color specification (White, Warm), CCT (3000K), CRI (90), and Light Emitting Surface diameter (13.20mm) ensure optical output characteristics remain consistent with original design intent.

5. Compliance Enhancement: The substitute achieves ROHS3 Compliant status compared to RoHS Compliant for the main part, representing improved environmental compliance. Both parts maintain identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (1 - Unlimited) and REACH Unaffected status.

6. Performance Improvement: The substitute delivers 1840lm typical luminous flux at 85°C test temperature compared to 1785lm at 25°C for the main part, with improved efficiency of 119 lm/W versus 111 lm/W. These improvements represent generational advancement within the same product family.

7. Connector Interface: Both parts feature integrated connectors, maintaining electrical interface compatibility without adapter requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BXRC-30G2000-D-73 be used as a direct replacement for the BXRC-30G2000-C-22 without circuit modification?

A: Yes. The substitute maintains identical mechanical dimensions, optical specifications, and test current requirements. Forward voltage difference (30.9V vs 32.3V) is within standard LED driver tolerance and does not require circuit redesign. Connector interface compatibility is maintained.

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

A: Both specifications indicate 3000K nominal color temperature. The 3-Step MacAdam Ellipse in the substitute represents a tighter color tolerance specification, providing improved color consistency across production batches. This is a performance enhancement, not a compatibility issue.

Q: Why does the substitute show higher luminous flux at 85°C than the main part at 25°C?

A: The specifications reflect different test conditions. The substitute's 1840lm is measured at 85°C test temperature, while the main part's 1785lm is measured at 25°C. This comparison demonstrates the substitute's thermal performance characteristics. At equivalent test temperatures, the substitute would show improved output due to generational advancement.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: The main part uses standard packaging (indicated as "-"), while the substitute uses Tray packaging. Both are suitable for automated assembly processes. Tray packaging is standard for active production parts and does not affect component functionality or compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the ROHS3 compliance upgrade?

A: ROHS3 represents compliance with the most current Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive. The upgrade from RoHS Compliant to ROHS3 Compliant indicates the substitute meets current and anticipated regulatory requirements, providing assurance for long-term design compliance.

Q: Is the lower maximum current specification (1A vs 1.05A) a limitation?

A: No. Both parts are rated for 500mA test current. The maximum current specification indicates the upper safe operating limit. The substitute's 1A maximum is sufficient for all standard applications using the 500mA test current specification.

Q: Can inventory status influence the substitution decision?

A: Inventory status reflects current stock levels and does not affect technical compatibility. The main part shows 979 Pcs in stock (Obsolete status), while the substitute shows 1152 Pcs (Active status). For new designs or long-term production, the Active status of the substitute ensures continued availability beyond current inventory depletion.
