Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The BXRC-30G2000-D-73 qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters that remain unchanged or functionally compatible:

Preserved Parameters (Substitution Basis):

• Manufacturer: Bridgelux (same manufacturer ensures design validation and support)
• Series Classification: Both utilize Vero® 13 Array technology with identical base product number (BXRC-30)
• Color Temperature: 3000K 3-Step MacAdam Ellipse (color specification identical)
• Configuration: Round (mechanical form factor identical)
• Physical Dimensions: 36.20mm diameter, 1.90mm height, 13.20mm LES diameter (drop-in compatible)
• Lens Type: Flat (optical interface identical)
• Features: With Connector (interface compatibility maintained)
• CRI: 90 (color rendering performance equivalent)
• Compliance Standards: RoHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8539.52.0091 (regulatory equivalence)

Performance Enhancement in Substitute: The BXRC-30G2000-D-73 represents a newer generation (Gen 7 Vero® 13 Array) with improved specifications and active product status, providing enhanced performance characteristics while maintaining mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Redesigns and New Implementations: The BXRC-30G2000-D-73 is the specified replacement for the obsolete BXRC-30G2000-C-23. This substitution is mandated by product lifecycle status, as the original component is no longer manufactured.

Compatibility Assessment: Mechanical and electrical substitution is confirmed based on identical physical dimensions, equivalent color temperature specification, matching CRI rating, identical connector interface, and equivalent moisture sensitivity classification. The form factor and mounting interface remain unchanged, enabling direct board-level replacement without redesign.

Compliance and Regulatory Status: Both components maintain RoHS and REACH compliance with identical tariff classification (HTSUS 8539.52.0091) and export control designation (ECCN EAR99). The substitute meets or exceeds regulatory requirements applicable to the original component.

Performance Considerations: The BXRC-30G2000-D-73 demonstrates improved luminous efficiency (119 lm/W versus 111 lm/W) and higher flux output under elevated temperature conditions (1840lm @ 85°C versus 1785lm @ 25°C), indicating enhanced thermal stability and energy performance relative to the obsolete original.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BXRC-30G2000-D-73 be used as a direct replacement for BXRC-30G2000-C-23 without PCB modification?

A: Yes. Both components maintain identical physical dimensions (36.20mm diameter, 1.90mm height), identical light emitting surface diameter (13.20mm), matching connector interface, and equivalent mechanical mounting profile. No PCB redesign is required for direct substitution.

Q: How does the CCT specification ensure color consistency between the original and substitute?

A: Both components are specified at 3000K with 3-Step MacAdam Ellipse tolerance. This identical specification ensures chromaticity falls within the same defined color space, maintaining consistent correlated color temperature and perceived color uniformity across both components.

Q: What is the significance of the forward voltage difference (32.3V original vs. 30.9V substitute)?

A: The 1.4V reduction in forward voltage represents a generational efficiency improvement in the newer Gen 7 design. This difference may reduce driver power dissipation in constant-current applications. Drivers designed for the original 32.3V specification remain compatible with the lower 30.9V requirement; however, validation in the specific application circuit is recommended to ensure adequate headroom and stability margins.

Q: Does the maximum current rating change affect circuit design?

A: The maximum current specification decreases from 1.05A to 1A in the substitute. Circuits currently operating at 1.05A must be evaluated and adjusted to operate within the 1A maximum rating. For applications operating below 1A, no design modification is required.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the original and substitute that affect handling or assembly?

A: The original component packaging specification is not provided in the datasheet. The substitute is supplied in Tray packaging. Assembly and storage procedures should follow the tray packaging requirements, including appropriate moisture control and electrostatic discharge precautions as indicated by the MSL 1 classification.

Q: What is the CRI rating significance for both components?

A: Both components maintain CRI 90 rating, indicating excellent color rendering capability suitable for applications requiring high fidelity color reproduction, including retail, hospitality, and residential lighting where color accuracy is critical.

Q: How does the Gen 7 designation affect component compatibility?

A: The Gen 7 designation indicates the substitute is a newer generation of the Vero® 13 Array platform. Bridgelux maintains design compatibility within the base product number series (BXRC-30) to ensure backward compatibility. The component shares the same connector interface, optical interface (flat lens), and mechanical envelope as the original.
